There are three spots in relation to forestland type in the theory and method of ecological footprint. The theory of ecological footprint was reinforced and improved to assess the sustainable development through putting forward the concept and grade of forestland ecological footprint index. Then this new model was applied to analysis the spatial-temporal diversity dynamic of forestland sustainable...
Ecological footprint model is a new tool of measuring sustainable development in a region. In this paper, based on the model of EF, ecological footprints(EF)and ecological capacities(EC) are calculated from 1996 to 2005 in Huaibei. The results show that EF per capital increases from 1.7790 hectare in 1996 to 5.1204 hectare in 2005 by the annual rate of 18.78%. Meantime, EC per capital slightly decreases...
Sustainable development is a hot issue in ecological economy. By analyzing the grey relational grade matrix, the degree of influence for each factor on sustainable development can be found. The results showed that main factors of influencing sustainable development were total population, gross domestic product, total investment in fixed assets, per capita annual living expenditure of urban households,...
Ecological driving aiming at optimizing energy consumption is highly desirable for sustainable intelligent transportation systems. This paper presents a unique development of ecological vehicle driving system in model predictive approach. The vehicle's fuel consumption model and the model based anticipation of future road-traffic situations are used in this rigorous reasoning approach of deriving...
The industrial economy has a tremendous impact on the ecological environment. A three-layer artificial neural network (ANN) models were developed to predict industrial economic development stress on eco-environment. The results showed that ESI was the highest in 1997, whereas ESI was the lowest in 1998. ESI in different years has fluctuated, but all belong to fourth level, representing higher eco-environment...
The ecological footprint of Zhejiang from 1997 to 2003 and the forecast models of ecological footprint and ecological capacity were calculated in the paper. Results showed that the ecological footprint per capita gradually increased from 1.2368 hm2 in 1997 to 1.3878 hm2 in 2003, and the ecological deficit increased from 0.7705 hm2 in 1997 to 0.9677 hm2 in 2003, and while the ecological capacity decreased...
