A discussion on the evaluation method of geological environment carrying capacity of Hebei Province

With the rapid economic and social development, population growth and urbanization in Hebei Province in the past decades, geological disasters such as collapse, landslides, mudslides, ground subsidence, ground fissures and land subsidence have been increasingly generated, which affects economic development of Hebei. The province's economy and society are developing well and fast.The main reason for the formation of these geological disasters is that the intensity of human activities exceeds the carrying capacity of the local geological environment.To objectively analyze the geological environment carrying capacity of Hebei Province, the authors established the evaluation index of the regional geological environment carrying capacity of Hebei Province, and carried out the geological environment carrying capacity background evaluationand status evaluation of Hebei Province. Throughthe study and analysis of the evaluation results, the authors put forward a new evaluation index and method for the geological environment carrying capacity status evaluation so as to beter conform to the actual situation of the study area, and carried out an analysis and evaluation so as to establish a multi-party coordinated resource and environmental carrying capacit monitoring and early warning long-term effect. The results obtained by the authors provide a reference for these purposes.
