Abstract

The nearly 30 years of natural resource utilization and ecological carrying capacity (ECC) of Baicheng region, Jilin province was calculated on the basis of ecological footprint (EF) method within different modes. The results showed that the growth rate of consumptive ecological footprint (EFC) was 48.76% within Baicheng region from 1986 to 2013. The accounts of cultivated land EFc was fallen from 60.04% to 45.75%, whereas, cultivated land was the largest component of EFC. Meanwhile, cultivated land was still the largest component of ECC, which accounted for more than 66.13%~80.69%. The ecological deficit was gradually decline, and the ECC from 2006 began to have a surplus. The growth rate of productive ecological footprint (EFP) of Baicheng region in 2013 was 2.235 times higher than that of 1986, and the EFP of cultivated land was the largest part which accounted for 36.12%~62.58% of the total, followed by the EFP of energy land and pasture land. As the approach of EFP was more suitable for the ECC evaluation in the ecological vulnerability region, our results showed that the increase rate of EFP was far higher than that of EFC, indicating that resource production was higher than its consumption, and resource output was undertaken more pressure in the region. Consequently, the policy and plan of land utilization and resources exploit should be taken for the regional sustainable development.
