Abstract:

The traditional ecological footprint does not put water resource into their accounting system.To compensate for this deficiency,the researchers put forward the ecological footprint of water resources and water ecological footprint.The paper introduces the present situation of water ecological footprint research in our country in terms of the basic theory and basic models,and analyzes its shortcomings and inadequacy.It points out that the traditional ecological footprint based on biological production cannot accept the water resources ecological footprint based on nonbiological production.The key way to solve this problem is to construct water ecological footprint in the waters of the multiple ecosystem services function,elaborate the water ecological footprint theory foundation and basic model based on the ecosystem service.Finally,the paper puts forward the main problems that need to be studied further
