Empirical Study of Sunan’s Water Resources Carrying Capacity during the Process of Modernization

Abstract:

Taking Sunan’s water resource carrying capacity as the research object, this article extracted three principal components from thirteen indicators influencing water resources carrying capacity through principal component analysis method. Then bestowing weights to the three components using entropy value method, the composite scores of Sunan’s water resource carrying capacity from 2002 to 2012 could be calculated.The result shows that, with the advancement of Sunan modernization, Sunan’s water resource carrying capacity will face a major test, thus requiring a reasonable and efficient use of water resources and giving full play to potential of water resources.
