摘　　要： 全球海洋生态系统作为异质性的复杂巨系统是一类景观生态系统 ,具有明显的等级结构 ,因此 ,景观生态学的原理和方法完全可以应用到海洋生态学的研究中来。生态系统的尺度限制了海洋生态学向更加宏观的方向进一步发展 ,在景观的水平上 ,运用景观生态学的理论和方法可以更好地在多个尺度上开展深入广泛的研究。本文不仅讨论了海洋景观的空间异质性 ,而且就海洋景观生态学的若干研究方向进行了探讨。 The global marine ecosystem as a giant heterogeneous and complex system is a landscape ecosystem with apparent hierarchical structure. It is reasonable to introduce the principles of landscape ecology to marine ecology. Now the scale of ecological study has been a restriction on the researches of marine ecology. The principles and methods of landscape ecology can be used to improve the researches of marine ecosystem in multiple scales.Marine landscape has three environmental gradients in the world ocean scale, including the latitudinal gradient in magnitude and seasonality of the solar radiation change with latitudes; the coast to the open water gradient often coincided with the variation in nutrients and mixing depth; the depth gradient from the sea surface to the abyssal sea bed, in which the depth of the water column illuminated by sunlight has important ecological effect on marine organisms. According to these gradients, the world ocean can be divided into several different ecological systems. The pattern and gradients of ocean indicated that ocean has great spatial heterogeneity.Several research directions of marine ecosystem based on the principles of landscape ecology were suggested, including the interaction among adjacent marine ecosystems, relation between the pattern and ecological process of ocean landscape, the impacts of global warming on marine landscape, and the protection of marine biodiversity.
