Study on Coordinated Development of New Urbanization,Ecological Security,and Public Health in the Yellow River Basin——A Case Study of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region
Exploring the coupling mechanism of new urbanization,ecological security,and public health in the Yellow River Basin is significant for achieving regional high-quality development,fully implementing the requirements of Chinese path to modernization,and safeguarding national ecological and border security.Using integrated assessment models,coupling coordination models,and obstacle degree models,we analyzed the development levels and influencing factors of new urbanization,ecological security,and public health in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region located in the upper and middle reaches of the Yellow River Basin.The results show that from 2005 to 2021,the development levels of the subsystems of new urbanization,ecological security,and public health in Inner Mongolia have all improved,with significant spatial differentiation.The level of new urbanization increased from 0.26 in 2005 to 0.69 in 2021,ecological security improved from 0.26 to 0.57 during the same period,and public health reached 0.64 in 2021.The coupling coordination level of new urbanization,ecological security,and public health showed a fluctuating growth trend,rising from 0.22 in 2005 to 0.62 in 2021.This pattern revealed higher coupling coordination levels in Hohhot and Baotou cities,with lower levels in other league cities.The factors such as basic medical insurance coverage for urban and rural residents,per capita GDP,and urban per capita disposable income are identified as the main obstacles restricting the coordinated development of the system,with average obstacle rates of 17.32%,8.74%,and 7.33%,respectively.Based on the research results,recommendations are proposed to promote the coordinated development of new urbanization,ecological security,and public health in Inner Mongolia,aiming to support and guide the realization of regional high-quality development and the advancement of Chinese path to modernization.
