Framework for Evaluation Index System of Carrying Water Resource

Rapid urbanization has led to gradual water shortages and pollution which threaten securing water resources. Therefore, water resource has a key position in the development of society. Thus, the establishment of an index system for evaluating the capacity of water resources becomes important. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of relevant research results was performed to compile indexes for evaluating the capacity of water resources. The Delphi method was adopted to acquire expert opinions on the adequacy of various evaluation indexes. The interquartile range was used to assess the adequacy indexes. The study results serve as a reference for the evaluation of urban water resources.
