Research On Environmental Carrying Capacity And Development Of Island Tourism

Island tourism with its leisure, mystery and adventure is more and more welcomed, and island has gradually become a popular tourist destination in recent years. Foreign island tourism is highly developed, such as some islands of the Caribban, Mediterranean, Pacific, Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia. Since the middle years of ninty in the 20th century, Chinese island tourism has been in flourish, such as the vocation tourism of Hainan Island, Zhoushan Islands and Putuo Island in Zhejiang, and a number of small coastal islands are actively carrying out the development and construction of tourism. However, during the development of Chinese island tourism, there are a lot of problems, such as the inadequate development of tourism resources, the lack of attractive tourism products and the nervous of tourism market. Faced with these problems, we have to find out what has happened in Chinese island tourism. What kinds of island tourism we need? How to make use of tourism resources of Chinese islands? How to promote island tourism into the healthy development? Why Chinese islands have always been "marginalized" by other regional planning? This article is based on the issue chaired by my doctor teacher "Changshan Islands Tourism Resort Planning" . It researches on the evaluation index system of environmental carrying capacity of island tourism, and the development and layout models of island tourism, then it provides some theoretical guidance and practical reference for the sustainable development of Chinese island tourism.This article includes nine parts.The first part introduces the background and significance, sums up the methods, technique line and innovation.The second part researches the development of island tourism. The study of the development of broad island tourism has been mature, and island tourism of our country is at the stage of exploratory development.The third part summarizes the characteristics and related theoretical basis of island tourism. It overviews the related concepts of island tourism, sums up the basic characteristics, describes some theories, such as the sustainable development theory, the environmental system and ecosysterm theory, the carrying capacity theory and the principal function area theory.The fourth part analyses the environmental carrying capacity of island tourism. It uses some methods such as the brainstorming, the AHP(Analytical Hierarchy Process), the principal component analysis and so on. Then by using SPSS software, it establishes the evaluation index system of environmental carrying capacity of island tourism.The fifth part researches the development and layout models of island tourism. It summarizes the development models and the classification of island tourism. It lists some domestic and foreign islands which developed successfully, such as the Maldives, Hawaii, Singapore, Bahamas, Hainan, Zhoushan and so on, and sums up some of the actual spatial layout models of island tourism.The sixth part researches on the toursim environmental carrying capacity of Changshan Islands. It introduces the regional overview of Changshan Islands. From the conditions of area location, tourism environment and social-economic status, it evaluates the tourism development status of Changshan Islands. Using fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model, it judges the state of the tourism environmental carrying capacity of Changshan Islands.The seventh part is the idea of building Changshan Islands Toursim Resort. It defines the concept of Changshan Islands Toursim Resort, analyses the necessity and feasibility of building the resort, posits the development strategy of the resort.The eighth part researches the development and layout models of Changshan Islands Tourism Resort. It refers to the status and potential of the tourism development of Changshan Islands, points out the strategic importance and measures of the resort, promotes the regional cooperation of Changshan Islands tourism, forms the spatial layout models of the resort.The ninth part sums up the main ideas and innovation, points out the inadequacies of the study and future research directions.
