Abstract: |
【Objective】The study was conducted to establish a comprehensive evaluation index system for ecological
protection and high-quality economic development in Northwest China, and measure the coupling coordination level of
the“ecology-economy”system in Northwest China, with a view to providing countermeasure and suggestions for promoting
the coordinated development of the“ecology-economy”system and its elements.【Method】Based on the panel data of
five provinces in Northwest China from 2008 to 2020, the entropy method and coupling coordination degree model were used
to measure the coupling coordination level of the“ecology-economy”system in Northwest China, and cluster analysis was
used to divide the coupling degree of the“ecology-economy”system in Northwest China into six levels.【Result】The time
series characteristics of the coupling coordination degree of the“ecology-economy”system in Northwest China increased
steadily during the investigation period, and the coordination level gradually transited from mild imbalance and low-level
coordination to high-quality coordination. The spatial characteristics were shown in the coupling coordination degree of
the“ecology-economy”system, presenting the characteristics of Shaanxi > Gansu > Xinjiang > Qinghai > Ningxia. The five
provinces in Northwest China reached and maintained the basic coordination level of class Ⅴ from 2016 to 2020. Shaanxi
first entered the high-quality coordination level of class Ⅵ in 2020. The coupling coordination degree of the“ecology
economy”system of Ningxia and Qinghai fluctuated and increased.【Conclusion】There is a strong spatial heterogeneity in Northwest China. We should improve the“ecology-economy”system and its coordinated development mechanism from three
aspects: endogenous innovation, consumption upgrading and government promotion. |
