Sustainability of tourism development in protected areas relies largely on the ability of destination management to harmonize the activities of visitors, local communities, entrepreneurs and other tourism actors with the primary aim of nature and landscape protection. Based on conceptual analysis, the manuscript refines tourism carrying capacity theory and operationalizes it into a cohesive systems approach to evidence-based visitor management in protected areas. The proposed modified concept of tourism carrying capacity approaches the protected area as a destination system where the continuous determination, estimation, and attainment of the visitation optimum are the main problems to be solved. The overall aim is to construct a comprehensive destination model which can be embedded into a decision-support system for visitor management. Testing of the proposed system, derived through an inductive process, has been initiated in the Czech Republic's protected area, for which a comprehensive destination model is being created.

保护区旅游发展的可持续性在很大程度上取决于目的地管理部门协调游客、当地社区、企业家和其他旅游参与者的活动的能力，其主要目的是保护自然和景观。在概念分析的基础上，手稿完善了旅游承载能力理论，并将其运用到保护区内基于证据的游客管理的一个有凝聚力的系统方法中。提出的修改后的旅游承载力概念将保护区作为一个目的地系统，其中连续确定、估计和实现最佳访问量是需要解决的主要问题。总体目标是构建一个综合的目的地模型，该模型可以嵌入到游客管理的决策支持系统中。
