Abstract:
The Sanyang Wetland, once a vital agricultural resource, faces severe ecological challenges due to persistent reclamation efforts and local activities. Water quality has deteriorated, leading to eutrophication and a loss of wetland attributes. This paper proposes an integrated approach to address these issues, combining ecological restoration with sustainable education. We introduce two key components: an artificial wetland in a greenhouse and education for sustainability. The wetland family park setup, including artificial floating islands, serves as a practical example within the digital twin application of this approach. It engages the public, particularly teenagers, in wetland conservation through an immersive educational experience. This study addresses ecological and educational dimensions simultaneously. It emphasizes sustained research and collaboration for impactful results, offering insights applicable in various contexts. This work presents a promising path to enhance wetland ecosystems, raise awareness, and empower communities to contribute to their preservation. Β© 2024 The Authors.
