ABSTRACT

The preparation of water resources balance sheet is an important measure for water resources environmental protection. This article systematically combs the development process of comprehensive accounting of water resources environment at home and abroad, draws on advanced international experience, analyzes the theoretical basis and technical methods for preparing water resources balance sheets in my country, and discusses water resources resources. The determination principles of production and liabilities, table prototype design and water value accounting system have put forward solution ideas, initially constructed a technical route for water resources balance sheets that meets the actual needs of my country's water resources management, and provided a comprehensive understanding of the role of water resources balance sheets in comprehensive water resources management. An extended discussion of the role of management. These studies are expected to help explore ways to prepare water resource balance sheets.
