Summary
This summary is machine-generated.Coordinated land and population urbanization is key for new urbanization. This study found land development lags population growth in Shaanxi, China, highlighting urban expansion limits as the main issue.
Area Of Science
- Urbanization Studies
- Regional Planning
- Spatial Economics
Background
- Coordinated land and population urbanization is essential for advancing new urbanization initiatives.
- Shaanxi province, China, presents a unique case study due to its moderate economic development and distinct regional characteristics.
Purpose Of The Study
- To assess the coordination between land urbanization and population urbanization in Shaanxi from 2010-2022.
- To identify and rank the primary causes of imbalanced urban development in the region.
Main Methods
- Entropy weight method to determine index weights.
- Coupling coordination degree model to assess urbanization synergy.
- Analytic Network Process (ANP) for cause analysis and ranking.
Main Results
- Land urbanization lagged significantly behind population urbanization (indices 0.075-0.203 vs. 0.221-0.408).
- A close connection (coupling degree 0.835-0.854) was observed, but not a benign coordination (0.148-0.306), with a "high in the middle, low in the north and south" spatial pattern.
- Limitations on urban expansion (weight 0.324) and insufficient infrastructure (weight 0.261) were the main issues.
Conclusions
- Imbalanced land and population urbanization requires strategic interventions.
- Optimizing land spatial layout and enhancing urban ecological functions are crucial.
- Strengthening central cities' influence is recommended to improve regional balance.
