“…The multiband images acquired are used mainly to identify the physical features of the study area such as land cover types and slopes [38]. Those features are affecting the area's ability to satisfy visitors' needs by increasing or decreasing the environmental carrying capacity [10,29,30]. These factors are mainly utilized in estimating the real carrying capacity as complementing factors.…”

“…Land covers contribute as the second most influential factor that limits the development to be done outside the forest lands and water body areas. Although the number of maximum visitors is already estimated, the threshold can still be engineered to a certain desired amount without disturbing the equilibrium [10]. Increasing the amounts of flat grounds in the non-forest lands is a plausible alternative.…”

Coastal tourism is a tourism market segment that is increasing in popularity. The said increase happened due to coastal destinations’ ability to give visitors a tranquil and isolated atmosphere. This trend often triggered excessive coastal developments that could strain and cause irreparable damage to the local coastal ecosystem. Previous findings stated that a local environmental carrying capacity assessment needs to be formulated before a physical development can be exercised. Sekotong is a district in West Lombok that has the potential to be developed as a coastal tourism hub. It is located by the Lombok Strait that has good surfing waves and a beautiful seascape. This region is projected to experience a drastic visitor increase in the coming years. These potentials and increasing visitor number projections could attract physical development interests in the future. This study aims to assess local environmental carrying capacity, especially regarding coastal tourism activities. A quantitative approach utilizing statistical data and remote sensing tools is done to assess the physical and real carrying capacity models. The assessment shows that the study area can endure tourism development that is aimed to satisfy 3.087,57 individuals. This number represents the local ecosystem’s limit to endure future development plans and is expected to be referenced in future physical development plans in Sekotong. This study is also hoped to contribute to local coastal environment sustainability.

“…Therefore, considering the environmental constraints and the development of ports at the same time is of great research value [7]. In the long run, the construction of green ports should be comprehensively and deeply carried out to promote the harmonious coexistence of ports and the environment [8].…”

Ports play an important role in transportation networks, but the ecological efficiency of many ports cannot reach an effective level. To improve the ecological efficiency of ports, we need to analyze the current ecological efficiency of ports and propose policy recommendations based on the results. In this paper, we first employed the super-efficiency SBM model to calculate the ecological efficiency of the four major ports in the Yangtze River Delta port group from 2011 to 2021. The results showed that the average comprehensive ecological efficiency of the four major ports was 0.647, which did not reach the effective level. The overall ecological efficiency curve was U-shaped. Then we used the Tobit model to analyze the key factors affecting the port's ecological efficiency. We found that the economic development of port cities could promote the improvement of port ecological efficiency. The application level of emerging technologies also had a positive impact, but the impact was weak. However, expanding the scale of the port would reduce its ecological efficiency. At last, we provided some policy recommendations.
