Analysis of Structure and Impact Factors of County Level Economic Link Network in Fujian Province
Taking 64 units of county level in Fujian Province as research objects,this paper comprehensively used social network analysis method,QAP analysis method and GIS spatial analysis to explore the evolution charac-teristics and influencing factors of county level economic link network structure in Fujian Province from 2013 to 2019.The findings indicate that:(1)From 2013 to 2019,the intensity of county level economic links in Fujian Province increases year by year,but the spatial imbalance is persistent.The network pattern evolution showed a significant"Matthew effect"and formed an obvious three-core structure.(2)The centrality of Xiamen,Zhangzhou and Quanzhou metropolitan circle and Fuzhou metropolitan circle along the east coast of Fujian is significant,fol-lowed by the central Fujian region represented by Sanming urban area.Fuzhou urban area,Sanming urban area,Xiamen urban area and Longyan urban area play an important intermediary role in their respective large areas.(3)The four factors of administrative affiliation,cultural affiliation,resource agglomeration and factor circulation have significant positive effects on the county level economic link network,among which the influence of administrative and cultural factors is weakening.The two factors of elevation and traffic distance have a significant negative influ-ence,and the influence of traffic factor is increasing.
