Abstract: Abstract: The ecological footprint of districts and counties around Nansihu Lake was analyzed with related statistical data of 2007. The results show that only 6 of 16 counties have an ecological surplus. Liangshan County has the best ecological surplus while Jining (urban zone) have the worst ecological deficit. The spatial distribution of ecological deficit/surplus per capita is presented in three layers. Counties in the core layer have a small ecological surplus, and those in the middle layer have a seriously large ecological deficit, counties in the outer layer have a large ecological surplus. We suggest that serious pollution industry be prevented in the core layer, and the middle layer counties focus on decreasing the ecological deficit, while the outer layer counties hold excellent ecological conditions.
