This paper considers the role of landscape planning and design in the context of a growing need for research and policy recommendations associated with Emerging Infectious Diseases (EIDs), of which COVID-19 is the most recent. Beginning with a definition of EIDs and their origins within the context of landscape planning, the paper then argues that planning and design scholars and practitioners should begin by seeing the importance of a "global urban ecosystem" (GUE) comprised of rapidly transforming metropolitan and regional "patches" connected through "corridors" of relatively unregulated global transportation and mobility networks. It then revisits the history of the two prior global pandemics of HIV/AIDS and pandemic influenza to establish the importance of a landscape planning perspective at the intersection of wildlife, livestock, and globally connected human communities. The essay concludes by arguing that this GUE concept can facilitate creative planning and design by adapting concepts established in other patch and corridor networks like urban transit systems to the ongoing risk of future pandemic EIDs.
本文探讨了景观规划与设计在与新发传染病（EIDs）相关的研究及政策建议需求不断增长的背景下所发挥的作用，其中新冠病毒病是最新出现的一种。本文首先对新发传染病进行了定义，并阐述了其在景观规划背景下的起源，接着论证规划与设计领域的学者和从业者应首先认识到一个“全球城市生态系统”（GUE）的重要性，该系统由通过相对不受监管的全球交通和流动网络“廊道”相连的快速转型的大都市和区域“斑块”组成。然后，本文回顾了此前艾滋病病毒/艾滋病和大流行性流感这两次全球大流行的历史，以确立景观规划视角在野生动物、家畜和全球相连的人类社区交汇处的重要性。文章最后指出，这一全球城市生态系统概念可以通过将城市交通系统等其他斑块和廊道网络中确立的概念应用于未来大流行新发传染病的持续风险，来促进创新性规划与设计。
