Abstract
The research shows that the southwest highland area of China along the rivers is the inhabited area of ethnic minorities, and the sustainable development of the water ecological environment in the southwest mountainous area is inseparable from the excellent river ecology and ethnic culture. Based on the concept of water resources ecology and sustainable development, and on the basis of analyzing the characteristics of ecological development of rivers in southwest mountainous areas, this paper selects typical river sections and establishes an ecological evaluation system of river flow. At the same time, the spatial auto-correlation distance of different indicators was studied by using GIS software, and the spatial correlation of different factors was determined. Finally, the function index and leading index of water ecosystem in southwest mountain area were determined. At last, according to the spatial superposition method of argis10.0, the boundary of a single indicator grid is modified to determine the functional level and regional test of water ecological change in southwest mountain area. With the rapid development of China’s economy, the problem of environmental pollution is becoming more and more serious. More and more people are concerning about their own living conditions and their families’ living conditions. The discharge of pollutants from rivers in southwest mountainous areas poses a threat to the country’s fragile water environment. Therefore, we must strictly abide by environmental laws and regulations, monitor the water quality of river basins in real time, and take necessary measures to prevent water environmental pollution. In this paper, the GIS software system technology is used to study the changes of water ecological environment and environmental detection in the southwest mountain area of China, and an important research on the water quality detection and water ecological detection management of rivers in the southwest mountain area is designed.
