Research on the spatiotemporal evolution and driving mechanism of coupling coordinating between green transition of urban land use and urban land use efficiency: a case study of the Yangtze River Delta Region in China.

Analyzing the spatiotemporal characteristics and driving mechanisms of the coupling coordination between the Green Transition of Urban Land Use and urban land use efficiency can help explore the future development direction of sustainable land use in cities. This paper constructs a theoretical framework for the coupling coordination between Green Transition of Urban Land Use and urban land use efficiency. We use several models, including the super-efficiency slack-based model, the coupling coordination degree model, the non-parametric kernel density estimation method, exploratory spatial data analysis, and the geographically and temporally weighted regression model to examine the real level of Green Transition of Urban Land Use and urban land use efficiency in the Yangtze River Delta region from 2003 to 2020.

The mechanisms and spatial-temporal effects of farmland spatial transition on agricultural carbon emission: based on 2018 counties in China.

Agricultural carbon emission reduction is an important issue in environmental protection and development in China and the world. The farmland spatial transition is an important path for agricultural modernization in developing countries such as China. How can farmland spatial transition promote agricultural carbon emission reduction? This paper aims to explore the mechanisms and spatial-temporal effects of farmland spatial transition on agricultural carbon emission density.

Farmland Transfer, Social Security, and Households' Productive Investment: Based on China's CFPS Survey.

The willingness of farmers to transfer land on a big scale will be impacted when the rural social security system is not ideal, which will limit households' productive investment. This paper investigated the intermediate effects of social security on farmland transfer and productive investment by using zero-inflated models based on 4703 samples across China. Here are the findings: (1) Farmland transfer does not significantly impact productive investment without considering social society.

Analysis of the Dynamic Relationship between Green Economy Efficiency and Urban Land Development Intensity in China.

The improvement of green economic efficiency (GEE) should be realized under reasonable urban land development intensity (ULDI). Improving GEE can also help alleviate the negative externalities of excessive or unreasonable ULDI. Clarifying the interactive response mechanism between GEE and ULDI is a key link in regional sustainable development.
