title: Assessment of Ecological Carrying Capacity and Spatiotemporal Evolution Analysis for Arid Areas Based on the AHP-EW Model: A Case Study of Urumqi, China
abstract: Ecological carrying capacity (ECC) is central to assessing the sustainability of ecosystems, aiming to quantify the limits of natural systems to support human activities while maintaining biodiversity and resource regeneration. To assess ECC, earlier studies typically used the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method for modeling. In this study, we developed an AHP-EW method based on a combination of AHP and the entropy weight method, which considered important indicators including land use, vege
