CARRYING CAPACITY • Carrying capacity - Maximum population size that can be sustained indefinitely by the environment. • A population growth that exceeds the carrying capacity will eventually result in population decline as the environment cannot support the huge numbers. • Per capita resource availability - amount of resource available per person. • Estimates indicate that the carrying capacity of the planet has already been exceeded by the human population sometime in the 1980s.
