Abstract:
In response to the environmental degradation and increasing social pressures caused by over-tourism in some tourist cities in recent years, this paper developed a sustainable tourism optimization model. The model comprehensively considers three major factors: economic, environmental, and social aspects, covering six secondary indicators such as tourism revenue and water pollution index. First, this paper employed the DEMATEL-ANP hybrid method to analyze and calculate the global weights of these six secondary indicators. Next, based on indicator interrelationships, models for tourist numbers, e

<strong>Abstract</strong> The European Union&rsquo;s Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) seeks to achieve, for all European seas, &quot;Good Environmental Status&quot; (GEnS), by 2020.
