江苏省生态足迹分析与可持续发展研究

ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT BASED ON ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT ANALYSIS IN JIANGSU PROVINCE

生态足迹是定量研究区域可持续发展的一种重要方法。目前将生态足迹用于不同时间序列分析,以描述区域可持续发展状况的研究仅初始于不多的国外研究机构。通过对江苏省10年间生态足迹变化情况进行纵向比较分析,来考虑人类及其发展与生态环境的关系,衡量在人类开发强度较大的江苏省,区域生态供给功能是否能满足开发和消费的需要,量化江苏经济发展对生态环境影响的程度,证实了研究区域江苏省的严峻形势。同时与目前国内外已有的生态足迹研究成果比较,概述江苏省生态足迹赤字产生的原因。

The ecological footprint (EF) conception has gained much attention over the last a few years. But no research has carried out with respect to calculations of EF time series in China. The theory of ecological footprint was introduced in this paper and applied to Jiangusu Province as a case study. The EF for Jiangsu Province during the period from 1990 to 2003 was calculated. The results showed that the per capital deficit of EF and total EF in Jiangsu Province was distinctive and tended to increase from time to time. At the same time sustainability in Jiangsu Province was dropped in the period of ten years. The reasons causing ecological deficit in Jiangsu Province was analyzed.
