The results of the study show that: ①Both the number of population and the area of land for construction in counties in China show a trend of first increasing and then slightly decreasing, reaching a peak in 2014 and then slowly decreasing; ②In the process of rapid urbanization, the urbanization rate of county units in China is much smaller than the national average urbanization rate, and the urbanization level of counties is less than half of the national urbanization level. Therefore, the main force driving China’s urbanization process comes from the development of large and medium-sized cities, rather than county units. Besides, population transfer is more inclined to large and medium-sized cities than to county cities; ③ Based on the elasticity coefficient model, it is concluded that except Henan, Shanxi and Qinghai provinces, the other provinces in China are in a situation where the scale of construction land in county urban areas is not coordinated with the scale of population, and the type of incoordination is of the type of A disproportionate growth of people and land (the growth rate of the scale of construction land area and the scale of population are both positive and the growth rate of the former is greater than that of the latter); ④According to the deviation coefficient model, it is concluded that the scale of construction land scale and population growth in county units in China are not coordinated. Eighteen provinces in China are in a state of high dissonance, accounting for 64. 29% of the total. The average deviation coefficient for their degree of coordination is 2. 32, much higher than the average coefficient of deviation of 1. 5 in China. The relevant research results can provide theoretical reference for realizing the sustainable and healthy development of county cities, optimizing the structure of county units and improving utilization efficiency of county unit resources.","PeriodicalId":123372,"journal":{"name":"FRONTIERS OF DEVELOPMENT GEOGRAPHY","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130962516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Combined with data envelopment analysis, a multi-dimensional and comprehensive measurement evaluation of the low-carbon development level of China's megacities was also conducted. The results showed that: (1) The average comprehensive scores of 16 Chinese megacities in 2005, 2010 and 2015 were 0. 0892, 0. 0854 and 0. 863, respectively. The low carbon development level showed a trend of first decreasing and then rising. (2) Spatially, the low-carbon development level of eastern cities was generally high, but the internal differences were large, and the development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region was uneven, with Beijing having a higher level of development and Tianjin having a lower level of development. The development index of the western region was generally low, and the scores of Chongqing, Chengdu and Xi'an were all at low and lower levels. (3) From 2005 to 2015, the development of low-carbon economy increased steadily, of which the development level of the eastern region was significantly improved. The level of low-carbon development had declined. The level of low-carbon living was showing a significant downward trend. The development of a low-carbon environment had improved. The development of low-carbon energy consumption was basically stable, but the pattern had changed slightly. (4) From 2005 to 2015, the overall level of the comprehensive performance of national low-carbon development was not high, which reached 75. 3% of the optimal level, and there was a problem of low input-output efficiency. The pure technical efficiency of low-carbon development had only reached 88. 3% of the optimal level, which had great development potential. The scale efficiency of low-carbon development had reached 90% of the optimal level, and there was room for improvement.","PeriodicalId":123372,"journal":{"name":"FRONTIERS OF DEVELOPMENT GEOGRAPHY","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127992775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
