“…Our findings have some important policy implications. For a more sustainable urbanization in Nanjing and other cities in China, the policy makers should improve the quality of urbanization by deemphasizing the spatial and demographic urbanization but promoting socioeconomic development and environmental protection (Lu et al 2020 ). More supports should also go to city resident consumption, employment, education and health, social security, and public welfare.…”

The degradation of water environment (WE) has constrained the sustainable development of cities, while the rapid urbanization also exacerbates water environment change. However, the complicated relationship between urbanization and WE is far from clearly understood. In this study, a comprehensive index system for urbanization and WE was applied along with the System Index Evaluation Model (SIEM) and a Coupling Coordination Degree Model (CCDM) to analyze the coupling between urbanization and WE in Nanjing, East China, from 1990 to 2018. The comprehensive index of urbanization increased from 0.0392 in 1990 to 0.9890 in 2018, showing a clear increasing trend. Demographic and spatial urbanization made the largest contribution to urbanization development from 1990 to 2010, while economic urbanization became the largest contributor to urbanization development between 2011 and 2018. Under the combined effects of pressure, state, and response subsystems, the comprehensive WE index showed an upward trend with some fluctuations from 1990 to 2018. The degree of coupling coordination between urbanization and WE displayed an overall upward tendency, growing from 0.18 in 1990 to 0.95 in 2018. The coupling coordination state transitioned from a serious imbalance during the low coupling period (1990–1992) into the superior coordination of the highly coupled period (2011–2018). With the continuous urbanization in the future, in addition to ensuring the optimal management of surface water, protection of groundwater should be reinforced. The results advance our understanding of the dynamic relationship between urbanization and WE and provide important implications for urban planning and water resource protection.

“…Previous researchers have used various approaches to assess the carrying capacity of water resources, including the comprehensive fuzzy evaluation approach (Meng et al 2009), AHP (Lu et al 2017), ecological footprint (Wang et al 2017), multi-objective optimization (Lu et al 2020), three-level analysis (Lin et al 2020), and dynamic systems (Simonovic & Rajasekaram 2004;Yang et al 2015;Sun & Yang 2019). Combining multicriteria analysis methods and dynamic systems enables the interaction between factors affecting the carrying capacity of water resources to be considered during the quantitative analysis process of water resources' carrying capacity (Wang et al 2018).…”

The Deli watershed, located in the North Sumatra Province, is part of the Belawan–Ular–Padang River Area, which has the potential to supply raw water to three cities/regencies: Medan City, Deli Serdang Regency, and Karo Regency. According to the Regulation of the Minister of Public Works and Public Housing Number 04/PRT/M/2015, the Deli watershed area is classified as a National Strategic River Area. Despite its potential, the rapid economic growth and population increase have led to changes in land use, which have negatively impacted the carrying capacity of water resources in the Deli watershed. In this study, we used a dynamic system approach and the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) to assess the condition of the Deli watershed's water resource carrying capacity. The integration of dynamic systems and AHP yielded a water resource carrying capacity index, which describes the condition of the Deli watershed's water resources. Under current conditions, the value of the water resource carrying capacity index of the Deli watershed is expected to decline annually from 2019 to 2028. To increase the carrying capacity of water resources, it is recommended to decrease birth and migration rates, reduce water use, and restore land functions.
