Article Synopsis
- - The text discusses the concept of Land Resources Carrying Capacity (LRCC) and emphasizes the need to evaluate it properly to prevent irreversible damage caused by overpopulation and excessive human activity on land resources.
- - A new evaluation method from a "load-carrier" perspective is proposed, focusing on the relationship between human-induced pressure and the land's supply capacity, incorporating the theory of multifunctional land use.
- - The case study in Chongqing reveals that seven out of nine regions are overloaded in LRCC, indicating urgent policy adjustments are needed to manage land resource demands effectively.
The past few decades witness a typical urbanization era in large developing countries such as China. In line with the urbanization process, land resources have inevitably presented a series of changes. The evolution of urban land carrying capacity (ULCC) is appreciated as a yardstick for guiding towards sustainable urban development.

As a long-term national strategy, urbanization can only be implemented effectively with sufficient and sustainable ecological environment resources. By appreciating that the ecological environment carrying capacity (EECC) is a yardstick for guiding the practice of sustainable urban development, it is therefore pressing to examine the change of EECC adequately, so that the sustainable urbanization can be addressed appropriately.
