摘要

The landuse/ landcover of watersheds are facing frequent changes due to rapid increase of population. Land is converted to settlements or urban lands to fulfill the requirements of increasing population. Though it is an unavoidable phenomenon, the threat is the changes are not in a systematic way to put up with the side effects of such changes. In other words, the developments happen without proper planning and design guidelines. Generally, when land cover changes without proper plans, it affects the hydrology of watersheds, such as distortions of natural waterways, infiltration blocking and increase of runoff. It causes to have frequent flooding in catchments. Further it vanishes the natural flora and fauna from the landscape causing imbalances of the landscape. The main aim of this study was to find out the effect of urbanization on the wetland ecosystems and to show the importance of linking isolated wetlands to have a favorable balance between natural ecosystems and the urbanized landscape. For this study, Sri Jayawardenapura area and suburbs which face frequent flooding during recent years were selected. Aerial photographs and high resolution satellite images were selected for the demarcation of wetland ecosystems of the study area during 1956, 1972, 1999, 2007 and 2016 years. Rapid urbanization without understanding the ecological pattern of the landscape has fragmented the whole wetland network into smaller, scattered wetland patches and it caused to change the natural stream network during the study period. An attempt was taken to show the most feasible way of connecting isolated wetland patches to minimize the flooding events and to have ecological balance to the study area.
