We modify the ecological footprint (EF) methodology based on the theory of emergy analysis, and two modified models of ecological footprint accounting are formulated and applied to a case study in Xinjiang. The comparison between the conventional and modified EF models based on the different views of ecological production is outlined. The results of comparison show that the modified models are reasonable and feasible, although the modified and traditional EF models are quite different in some principles.
