The Coupling and Coordinated Development from Urban Land Using Benefits and Urbanization Level: Case Study from
Kun Wang1, Yingkai Tang1, Yaozhi Chen1
1Business School, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610064, China.
Summary
Urbanization and land use benefits in Fujian show a low but improving coupling coordination degree. Central cities drive development, requiring policy support for peripheral areas to ensure sustainable growth.
Area of Science:
- Urban and Regional Planning
- Environmental Management
- Sustainable Development
Background:
- Rapid urbanization presents land management challenges, including inefficient land use.
- Understanding the interplay between urbanization and land use benefits is crucial for sustainable development.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the spatiotemporal evolution of coupling and coordinated development between urbanization and land use benefits in Fujian Province.
- To provide policy recommendations for sustainable urbanization and land use.
Main Methods:
- Constructed an index system to evaluate urban land use benefits and urbanization levels from 2002-2017.
- Utilized the Gini coefficient weighting method and coupling coordination degree (CCD) model.
- Analyzed spatiotemporal evolution laws of CCD using relative development degree and CCD models.
Main Results:
- Urban land use benefits and urbanization levels correlate positively with administrative and economic status.
- The CCD in Fujian is currently low but shows a positive development trend.
- A spatial "center-periphery" pattern in CCD was observed, radiating from Fuzhou, Xiamen, and Sanming.
Conclusions:
- Governments should promote intensive land use and ecological protection during urbanization.
- Leveraging the influence of central cities on surrounding areas is recommended.
- Targeted policies and resource allocation are needed for peripheral regions to enhance coordinated development.

238
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) operate across three levels of application, each representing an increasing degree of complexity: data management, analysis, and prediction. These levels reflect the expanding functionality and versatility of GIS technology in handling spatial data for diverse purposes.Data ManagementAt its foundational level, GIS serves as a tool for data management, enabling the input, storage, retrieval, and organization of spatial data. This level is often employed in...

01:17Design Example: Analyzing Capacity Contours for Flood Risk Assessment
221
Flood risk assessment involves careful planning and analysis to ensure the safety of communities near water retention structures. Capacity contours are a vital tool in this process, as they illustrate the potential spread of water at specific levels in a given area. In the context of building a bund across a small valley, these contours play a critical role in evaluating the safety of nearby residential areas.In this example, the bund is intended to store stormwater in the valley. The engineers...

02:29Hybrid Zones
21.5K
Hybrid zones are narrow regions where two closely related species interact, mate, and produce hybrids. Relative to either parent species, hybrids may possess distinct phenotypic or genetic differences that impact their survival and reproductive success. The genetic variances introduced by hybridization influence species diversity and speciation processes within the hybrid zone.

01:28Water Cement Ratio

The water-cement ratio is pivotal in defining concrete's quality. This ratio, a balance between the weight of water and cement in the mix, shapes the concrete's strength, durability, and resistance to environmental factors. As identified by Abrams’ law, less water in the mix equates to stronger concrete. However, water is essential not only for the chemical process of hydration but also for the concrete's workability and compaction. While hydration chemically binds water and...
