Fractal features of scenic spatial construction in Wuyishan World Natural and Culture Heritage

By using box dimension, information dimension and correlation dimension, fractal features of Wuyishan Natural and Culture Heritage were studied at a multi-dynamic scale. At the A sampling scale (with 1.474 box dimension, 1.415 information dimension, and 1.048 correlation dimension ), the derived correlation coefficients (R) are 0.994, 0.999 and 0.969. At the B sampling scale, box dimension ranges from B₁ to B₄, the correlation coefficient ranges from 0.825 ~ 1.200, R values are all above 0.961. The range of information dimension is 0.919 ~ 1.302 with R values above 0.964. Correlation dimension range is 0.822 ~ 1.364 with R values above 0.941. At the C sampling scale, range of box dimension is C₁ ~ C₁₆ (excluding plots with spot quantity between 0 ~ 1), the correlation coefficient is 0.175 ~ 0.931 with R values above 0.775. That of information dimension is 0.200 ~ 1.039 with R values above 0.771. Correlation dimension range is 0.506 ~ 1.929 with R values above 0.704. It is thus concluded that: the scenery system of Wuyishan Natural and Culture Heritage has obvious fractal characteristics. Furthermore, the fractal dimensions are sensitive to sampling scale.
