Research Of Bearing Capacity Of Water Resource In The Process Of Western Economic Development

Water resource plays an essential and irreplaceable role in regional economic development. With population growth, economic growth and improvement of people's living conditions, the conflict between supply and demand of western water resource becomes more serious. What is the current situation of water resource bearing capacity in western provinces? How to improve bearing capacity of western water resource and realize sustainable utilization of water resource while ensuring stable social and economic growth? Hereby, we have an in-depth research on the bearing capacity of water resource in the process of western economic development and propose measures to improve the bearing capacity of western water resource.The thesis includes:Chapter I Introduction mainly illustrates research background, aim, significance and methodology, laying a foundation for the further research of bearing capacity of water resource in the process of western economic development. Meanwhile, it points out possible innovation and limitation.Chapter II summarizes basic international and domestic regional economy theories and research on bearing capacity of water resource. It outlines development stages and main points of western regional economy theories and summarizes theoretical fruits of our regional economic development. At the same time, it reviews and comments on research history, definitions, analyzing methods, usages, fruits and existent problems of bearing capacity of water resource, proposing theoretical support for the research.Chapter III defines water resource and regional economic development and makes thorough research. On the basis of an in-depth and objective research into definition, characteristics, quality and types of water resource, it proposes scientific water resource concept, illustrates the relationship between regional economic development and water resource, analyzes pushing impacts of water resource and restricting impacts of water shortage on regional economic development, and proposes prominent problems facing water environment and water resource in the current regional economic development.Chapter IV analyzes and studies bearing capacity of water resource, defines bearing capacity of water resource, analyzes its traits and essence. It analyzes factors influencing bearing capacity of water resource, points out necessity, principal rules, process, ideas and methods of research into bearing capacity of water resource. It holds the view that two modes of expression of bearing capacity of water resource for population, society, economy and ecological environment may satisfy the needs of quantification and comprehensive coordination. It makes a summary of theory system of bearing capacity of regional water resource, proposes such questions as whether water resource system supports regional economic development, and how can water resource system support regional economic development. In addition, we need to further disentangle the relationship between bearing capacity of water resource and regional economic development, discover new ideas and methods for bearing capacity of water resource.Chapter V studies the problems in water resource development of western area. It firstly analyzes the current situation of water resource in western area, and then comments on water resource in northwestern and southwestern areas, analyzes the problems existing in water resource utilization of western area, believing drought, serious loss of water and soil, grave water pollution, deteriorating ecological environment and underdeveloped water conservancy infrastructure has become the bottleneck of social and economic development of western area. The implementation of Western Development must give special emphasis to water conservancy construction and optimization of water resource, properly handle the relationship between water and economic development as well as ecological environment, and promote harmonious development among water resource, economy, society and environment.Chapter VI establishes a model of harmonious development between macro economy and water resource. It puts restriction rules of water resource into an input-output model of regional macro economy and establishes a water resource analysis model of macro economy. It proposes a two-factor water resource bearing capacity calculation model on the basis of summarizing advantages and disadvantages of evaluation index methods.Chapter VII establishes a model of harmonious development between macro economy and water resource utilization on the basis of analysis of previous chapters. It makes a situation analysis on water resource utilization and macro economic development among different provinces. It analyzes bearing capacity and bearing condition of water resource in western provinces in future context, and proposes concrete measures for reference.Chapter VIII points out the direction and measures of western water resource development and utilization. It summarizes foreign strategies of enhancing bearing capacity of water resource, states Scientific Development View is very efficient to improve bearing capacity of western water resource, and proposes 6 measures to improve bearing capacity of western water resource.The characteristics and innovation of this paper are mainly manifested by integration of input-output analytical technology of macro economy and water resource development and utilization, as well as quantitative study on complicated interaction between economic development of western region and water resource development and utilization through model technology. It reviews the definition and connotation of bearing capacity of water resource, and establishes a set of scientific and practical theory of bearing capacity of water resource as well as evaluation model. It proposes a two-factor water resource bearing capacity calculation model on the basis of summarizing advantages and disadvantages of evaluation index methods. It makes an analysis on future water resource development and utilization in western region through the model of harmonious development between macro economy and water resource and the model of bearing capacity of water resource, and proposes suggestions and countermeasures. It applies the model to the project of harmonious development between macro economy of western region and water resource utilization, and proposes concrete measures for reference as well as measures to improve bearing capacity of water resource in western region.
