Important influencing factors analysis of airport sustainable development capacity: The case of China

Journal Name:

Publication Year:

Abstract (Original Language): 
Purpose: This paper seeks to define and build the formation mechanism for airport sustainable development capacity. Design/methodology: Structure Equation and System Dynamic Model are used to research the formation mechanism of airport sustainable development capacity. Findings: The most influencing factors are: airport own investment, Gross Domestic Product and power consumption of unit income. Originality/value: Firstly, a new concept to evaluate the dynamic work on sustainable development is proposed, which is defined as airport sustainable development capacity. Secondly, the formation mechanism of airport sustainable development capacity is studied through Structure Equation Model and System Dynamics model. It fills in the gap of existing research whose main focus is static evaluation of airport sustainable development capacity and influencing factors identification rather than dynamic formation mechanism.
