Abstract:
According to the DPSIR model, the index system of the ecological environment carrying capacity of urban land resources was constructed. The system integrates ecological environment and the population, economy, social development, management and other elements into a unified analysis framework through structural design of indicators, and fully considers the close relationship among all the above elements. Taken Beijing for case study, the changing trend of the relevant indicators of the ecological environment carrying capacity of land resources was analyzed based on the data from 2011 to 2014. The results showed that the two driving force indicators, i.e. population growth and economic growth, had been rising steadily, which had led to increasing pressure on land resources year by year in Beijing. The pressure from urban construction land use had been increasing, and the pressure from residential land use was the most significant. As can be seen from the responses indicators and state indicators, the urban greening and ecological protection in Beijing had been strengthened a lot, but the impact indicators had no significant improvements at the moment and the problems such as air pollution and water resources scarcity were still not optimistic. Finally, policy recommendations were put forward on how to evaluate and improve the ecological environment carrying capacity of urban land resources.
