[Objective] In order to explore the spatiotemporal evolution and correlation of soil erosion and ecological carrying capacity in the context of land type changes, it is of great significance to improve the level of ecological carrying capacity, optimize land use structure and configure soil and water conservation measures. [Methods] This paper takes Ningdu County, Jiangxi Province as the research area, based on natural resource and socio-economic data, uses InVEST model and spatial principal component method to analyze the impact of soil erosion changes on ecological carrying capacity. [Results](1)The main types of land use in Ningdu County were forest land, arable land and grassland. The degree of soil erosion in the past 9 years showed the order: 597.42 t/(km2·a)in 2010>591.29 t/(km2·a)in 2015>583.51 t/(km2·a)in 2018. The type of erosion was predominantly slight. In areas such as the central, northwestern and southeastern regions, the degree of soil erosion on construction land and cultivated land was serious.(2)Ningdu County's ecological carrying capacity was low in the southwest and high in the northeast. In the past 9 years, the ecological carrying capacity had improved slightly. In areas with severe soil erosion in the third stage, the level of ecological carrying capacity was low.(3)From 2010 to 2018, Ningdu County had carried out large-scale land preparation, converting forest land and wasteland(unused land)into garden land and cultivated land, increasing the land cover. Coupled with the decrease in rainfall, the runoff erosion was weakened, and the erosion modulus significantly reduced, which reduced by 178.19 t/(km2·a), 876.32 t/(km2·a), and 2 205.07 t/(km2·a), respectively. Other land use types had less variation in erosion modulus. In general, the main reason for the change in soil erosion modulus was the conversion of arable land, garden land and unused land. [Conclusion] Soil erosion intensity varies under different land use methods in Ningdu County and has a large impact on the regional carrying capacity. Future research on the impact of human activities on erosion as well as ecological carrying capacity should be strengthened.
