This invention relates to a method for simulating and predicting the spread of *
Carex chinensis* mound communities in
marsh wetlands. The invention belongs to the field of
marsh wetland plant community spread
simulation technology, specifically a method for simulating and predicting the spread of *
Carex chinensis* mound communities. This invention addresses the problem of not being able to simulate and predict the spread paths and rates of *
Carex chinensis* mound communities in
marsh wetlands using existing ecological and
environmental data. The method involves: acquiring and interpreting
remote sensing images; acquiring
community characteristic data and ecological and
environmental data;
processing the acquired
remote sensing images and ecological and
environmental data to form a
database; creating an MCE suitability atlas; simulating the spread of *Carex chinensis* mound communities; verifying the accuracy of the
simulation results; and then making predictions. This invention can accurately predict the spread paths and rates of *Carex chinensis* mound communities in marsh wetlands and can be applied to
wetland restoration and management.
