Analysis of Population Change Characteristic and Responding Strategies for Spatial Planning in Hunan Province
The change of population structure is profoundly affecting the development mode of economy,soci-ety and resource.Population change characteristic is studied to grasp the laws and trends of population growth and put forward the responding strategies for spatial planning,which plays an important role in promoting the high-qual-ity development of territorial space.Based on the data of national population census,this paper analyzes the charac-teristics of population change in Hunan province during the past ten years,and puts forward the responding strategy for spatial planning.Results show as follows.(1)In terms of planning response mechanism,the change of population's size causes the change of planning needs.The change of population's structure affects the facility alloca-tion.The distribution of population affects the urban-rural pattern.The migration of population affects the regional balance.(2)In terms of population dynamics,the population's size of Hunan province shows the trends of negative growth,declining birthrate and population aging.The urban population is agglomerated to the main traffic arteries and economic corridors.The scale and proportion of emigration increase.(3)In view of the characteristics of popu-lation change,the responding strategies for spatial planning include the hierarchical and categorical guidance,opti-mizing the supply of public service facilities,fostering the drivers of urban-rural integration and improving the effi-ciency of industrial development.
