Abstract

The environmental carrying capacity of water is a factor that contributes to community welfare. Determining the carrying capacity is generally done by the ecosystem services approach. In this case, the provision of water by the environment is considered an ecosystem service. The environmental carrying capacity of water is a factor that participates in the formation of community welfare. Determining the carrying capacity is generally completed by the ecosystem services approach. The higher the value of ecosystem services, the higher the environment is carrying capacity. The environmental carrying capacity is calculated as the water carrying capacity based on ecosystem services in Buol urban area, consisted of (i) classification of landscape characteristics, vegetation types, and land cover characteristics; and (ii) calculation and creation of service maps of environmental services as an indicative carrying capacity status of water supply in the Buol urban area. The results showed that the carrying capacity of water based on the performance of water supply ecosystem services in Buol urban area covers the very low to the high category. The water carrying capacity in Buol area is generally dominated by high and moderate water carrying capacities, which are 4507.53 ha and 1415.21 ha, respectively, or 68.71% and 21.57% of the total urban area. Areas with low and very low water carrying capacity or performance of ecosystem services cover an area of 514.85 Ha and 122.40 Ha, respectively, or only about 7.85% and 1.87% of the total urban area of Buol.
