Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the survey on deficiencies of ecological footprint model applied on regional sustainable development assessment, modification of the ecological footprint model was preliminarily discussed on three aspects: concept extension, combination with other index, and introduction of quantitative estimate indices for time series calculation. This discussion provided a scientific guidance of applying ecological footprint model on regional sustainability assessment, and a theoretical basis for further case study.
