Abstract:
The concept and its evaluation of drought resistance capacity were investigated based on summarizing the current worldwide related research advances. Comprehensively taking the natural and social properties into consideration, and the two essence of capacity were generalized, i.e. the capacity was linked with degree or magnitude of the disaster, and it emphasized the human resistant activity and the concept of maximum extent. On this basis, the definition of drought resistance capacity and its connotation were expounded by referring the definitions of other natural disaster resistant capacity and natural resources carrying capacity. Then the assessment methodology of the drought resistance capacity was constructed on the basis of the elements and the definition analysis respectively. The framework of drought resistance capacity was preliminarily presented.
