Abstract

The coordinated development of new urbanization and ecological environment welfare performance is a core requirement for ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin. As the core carrier of development in the basin, the level of coupling and coordination between these two systems in urban agglomerations directly determines the quality of the basin's development. This paper analyzes the coupling and coordination mechanism of the two systems, and builds an evaluation index system and a research method framework. Combined with the regional characteristics of urban agglomerations in the Yellow River Basin, it studies the temporal and spatial evolution, spatial correlation and dynamic evolution characteristics of their coupling and coordinated development, and puts forward targeted countermeasures. The study finds that the coupling and coordination of the two systems in the urban agglomerations of the Yellow River Basin shows a spatial differentiation with the upper reaches falling behind and the middle and lower reaches taking the lead. There are obvious positive spatial correlation and path dependence characteristics, and the radiation and driving effect of core cities has not been fully exerted. This paper provides theoretical support for the basin to resolve the contradiction between urbanization and ecological protection and realize coordinated development.
