Abstract—The water resources carrying capacity is an important component of natural resource carrying capacity in sustained development process. And the evaluation of sustainable development is crucial to the social development. So ,This article from the water, social, economic, ecological environment subsystems, set up the evaluation model through combination of entropy theory and projection pursuit, evaluate the sustainable development of water resources. The Evaluation results show that water resources sustainable development tends to benign trend. The evaluation method is reliable and reasonable. The evaluatiaon results can afford scientific basis for water resources sustainable development and it is proved that EV-PP model is effective new method. Finally, the article brings forwards suggestions to improve the water resources sustainable development. It can provide decision-making for water resources sustainable utilization.
