    The coupling coordination of social and economic upgrading in China:Evolution,regional disparities and influencing factors

    查看更多>>摘要:Social upgrading does not inherently follow economic upgrading;rather,they pre-sent a complex interplay.This paper,focusing on China,utilizes the coupling coordination degree and a panel regression model to shed light on the intricate interaction between social upgrading and economic upgrading.It is found that the coupling coordination degree of social and economic upgrading in China has improved from 0.33 to 0.49 since the mid-1990s,un-dergoing a shift from a stage of slight imbalance to low-level coordination.However,signifi-cant regional disparities are present in terms of economic upgrading,social upgrading,and their coupling coordination degree.Developed areas exhibit a higher degree of coupling co-ordination compared to less developed regions,indicating a connection between the coupling coordination degree and the level of economic growth.Economic globalization,public gov-ernance,and the legal environment positively impact the coupling coordination between so-cial and economic upgrading,while economic privatization and corporate violations of law exert negative effects.The paper concludes with policy discussions for enhancing the cou-pling coordination between social and economic upgrading.

    查看更多>>摘要:Landscape in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River in China has un-dergone significant changes for thousands of years due to agricultural expansion.Lack of reliable long-term and high-resolution historical cropland data has limited our ability in un-derstanding and quantifying human impacts on regional climate change,carbon and water cycles.In this study,we used a data-driven modeling framework that combined multiple sources of data(historical provincial cropland area,historical coastlines,and satellite da-ta-based maximum cropland extent)with a new gridding allocation model for croplands dis-tribution to reconstruct a historical cropland dataset for the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River at a 10-km resolution for 58 time points ranging from the period 1000 to 1999.The cropland area in the study area increased by 2.3 times from 21.87 million ha in 1000 to 50.64 million ha in 1999.Before 1393,the area of cropland increased slowly and was pri-marily concentrated in the Weihe and Fenhe plains.From 1393-1820,the area of cropland increased rapidly,particularly on the North China Plain.Since 1820,cropland cover has tended to become saturated.Our newly reconstructed results agreed well with remotely sensed data as well as historical document-based facts regarding cropland distribution.

    查看更多>>摘要:The imbalance in global streamflow gauge distribution and regional data scarcity,especially in large transboundary basins,challenge regional water resource management.Effectively utilizing these limited data to construct reliable models is of crucial practical im-portance.This study employs a transfer learning(TL)framework to simulate daily streamflow in the Dulong-Irrawaddy River Basin(DIRB),a less-studied transboundary basin shared by Myanmar,China,and India.Our results show that TL significantly improves streamflow pre-dictions:the optimal TL model achieves an average Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency of 0.872,showing a marked improvement in the Hkamti sub-basin.Despite data scarcity,TL achieves a mean NSE of 0.817,surpassing the 0.655 of the process-based model MIKE SHE.Addition-ally,our study reveals the importance of source model selection in TL,as different parts of the flow are affected by the diversity and similarity of data in the source model.Deep learning models,particularly TL,exhibit complex sensitivities to meteorological inputs,more accu-rately capturing non-linear relationships among multiple variables than the process-based model.Integrated gradients(IG)analysis further illustrates TL's ability to capture spatial het-erogeneity in upstream and downstream sub-basins and its adeptness in characterizing dif-ferent flow regimes.This study underscores the potential of TL in enhancing the under-standing of hydrological processes in large-scale catchments and highlights its value for wa-ter resource management in transboundary basins under data scarcity.

    查看更多>>摘要:In the context of accelerated globalization,intercity factor flows are becoming in-creasingly dependent on a reasonable and orderly spatial structure.Therefore,an in-depth study of the optimization and adjustment of spatial structure is essential for coordinated de-velopment.This study quantitatively evaluated urban development levels and introduced network analysis methods to analyse the spatial structure and robustness of development.The results indicated the following:(1)The urban development level in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei(BTH)region increased in all dimensions,and the transmission efficiency significantly improved.(2)The spatial structure of the BTH region has been relatively stable,as illustrated by the main pattern of the spatial distribution of central cities,with a trend towards contiguous development.(3)The ranking of network robustness is environment>society>economy,and the core network and key nodes are primarily located within the radiation of the three central cities of Beijing,Tianjin,and Shijiazhuang.(4)The coordinated development of the BTH re-gion is effective but still needs to be optimized and adjusted,and the strategic significance of edge cities has not been completely exploited.This study aims to provide an emerging ana-lytical perspective for optimizing regional spatial structure and promoting regional coordinated development.
