西藏珠峰大本营景区生态旅游环境容量研究

Research on the Environmental Capacity of Ecotourism in Tibet's Mount Everest Base Camp

生态旅游环境容量作为衡量旅游环境与旅游发展是否协调的重要指标,为旅游的可持续发展提供了较为客观的判断依据。珠峰大本营景区已成为中外游客喜爱的旅游目的地,日益增多的游客量对景区的生态环境造成了威胁。从珠峰大本营自身的承受能力出发,构建了生态旅游容量指标体系,计算出了景区生态旅游环境容量。结果表明:研究区生态环境容量为900~1125人次/d。基于测算结果,设置了高、低不同容量的情景方案,并提出了相应的景区发展及生态环境保护策略。

As an important index to measure the coordination between tourism environment and tourism development,ecotourism environmental capacity provides an objective basis for the sustainable development of tourism.The Everest base camp scenic spot has become a favorite tourist destination for Chinese and foreign tourists.The increasing number of tourists poses a threat to the ecological environment of the scenic spot.Based on the bearing capacity of the Everest base camp,this paper constructs the index system of ecotourism capacity and calculates the ecotourism environmental capacity of the scenic spot.The results showed that the ecological environment capacity of the study area ranged from 900 to 1125(person-time·d-1).Based on the evaluation results,the scenarios of high and low capacity are set up,and the corresponding strategies of scenic spot development and ecological environment protection are put forward.
