Carrying Capacity Network

A Carrying Capacity Network is a framework used to assess how many individuals or units an environment or system can support sustainably. It considers resources like food, water, and space, as well as factors such as population growth and environmental impact. By analyzing these aspects, it helps predict the maximum load or capacity an area or system can handle without degradation. This concept is useful for managing natural resources, urban planning, and ecosystem conservation, ensuring that development or activity remains balanced and does not exceed what the environment can sustain over time.
