A Framework to Evaluate Land Carrying Capacity of the Mountainous Mega City: A Case from Chongqing, China
Cities are facing various challenges in the process of urbanization. Land carrying capacity is an important basis for sustainable development, especially for mountainous mega cities. This study aims at formulating a framework to evaluate land carrying capacity of the mountainous mega city, 26 indicators are selected and classified as four subsystems including population, economy, eco-environment and construction. A mountainous mega city in China, Chongqing, is selected as a case to demonstrate this framework. The results show that there is a volatile increasing trend for land comprehensive carrying capacity in Chongqing during 2008–2017, different subsystems have different trends. This research can provide evaluation underpinnings for managers and planners of mountainous mega cities to optimize the sustainable urban development.
