Study on Monitoring Problems and Solutions of South China Karst

South China Karst, a UNESCO World Heritage site, faces significant monitoring challenges that threaten its ecological integrity and sustainable development. The study identifies critical issues such as the lack of a unified monitoring system, inadequate or non-targeted indicators, and insufficient professional resources and equipment. To address these, researchers recommend establishing a collaborative monitoring framework with standardized indicators, targeted plans, and improved surveillance networks. These measures aim to preserve the site's outstanding universal value by ensuring systematic, effective, and sustainable monitoring practices.
