“…Referring to the research of relevant scholars in the field, we mined the common influencing factors (Guo and Li, 2014;Wang et al, 2021b;Yan et al, 2023), we selected the following indicators for analysing the synergy of MES and MHQD. (1) Innovationdriven (innov), Innovation is the primary driving force for the MHQD, playing a crucial role in enhancing economic benefits and reducing ecological and environmental pressures (Chemmanur et al, 2010).…”

IntroductionIn China, the sustainable development of the marine is facing a prominent contradiction between ecological security and economic development, as well as unbalanced and non-coordinated regional development. Exploring the regional differences in the synergy between marine ecological security (MES) and high-quality development of the marine economy (MHQD) and its driving mechanism is the key to optimizing the spatial distribution of marine development, promoting the synergistic and balanced development of the regional marine composite system during the “14th Five-Year Plan” period.MethodsIn this article, we employed the Dagum Gini coefficient decomposition model and Kernel density estimation methods to reveal the evolution of regional differences, sources, and distributional dynamics of synergistic development of the composite system from 2009 to 2020. Meanwhile, spatial econometric analyses were applied to identify the influencing factors and spatial spillover effects.ResultsThe level of synergistic development of composite system has a fluctuating upward trend, with a significant positive spatial correlation and a significant “polarization effect”. Inter-regional differences in the synergistic development of the composite system are the main source of the overall differences. Factors such as innovation-driven, human capital, and opening up to the outside world are important driving factors for the synergistic development of the composite system.DiscussionThe MES-MHQD composite system exhibits a low level of synergistic development, with significant differences in the level of synergy both among the 3MMECs and within each circle. We infer that the expansion trend of overall difference will constrain the exploration of a sustainable development path for China’s coastal regions in the future. It is necessary to optimize the spatial layout of the composite system, establish robust mechanisms for regional cooperation and communication, accurately identify the development bottlenecks of the regional composite systems. This study provides a theoretical basis and decision-making reference for the promotion of the synergistic development of the composite system of the Three Major Marine Economic Circles (3MMECs) in China.

The marine ecological civilization construction (MECC) plays an indispensable role in the development of ecological civilization in China. With the growth of the marine economy, threats to ecological environment have been increasing. From the standpoint of land-sea coordination, this study evaluates the MECC in China's coastal province and employs social network analysis to explore the spatial correlation network structure and radiation capacity. The results show that: (1) The MECC in China's coastal provinces has exhibited a general upward trend with occasional fluctuations. However, the subsystems exhibit disparate developmental trends, with the pressure subsystem exhibiting a slight decline. (2) While the MECC of all coastal provinces has increased, the MECC of China's coastal provinces exhibits considerable variation, with each facing different development challenges. (3) The spatial correlations of the MECC among coastal provinces have become increasingly pronounced, particularly in the regions surrounding Hangzhou Bay and Bohai Bay, while long-distance trans-regional correlations are relatively weaker. (4) There have been notable improvements in the MECC radiation capacity of all provinces, most prominently in Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and Shandong, which currently rank among the highest in the country. Conversely, the MECC radiation capacity of Liaoning, Hebei, Fujian, and Hainan remains relatively underdeveloped. The results indicate that while the MECC has developed, it still encounters obstacles pertaining to regional disparities, subsystem challenges, and spatial correlation development. The study concludes with a series of recommendations aimed at fostering sustainable development of the MECC in China's coastal regions.

There is a complex interaction between national land space and transportation. China is accelerating its strategy of building a strong transportation country and territorial spatial planning, which requires evaluating and strengthening the coordination relationship between transport and land space to promote development. Taking the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei urban agglomeration in China as an example, this study analyze the high-speed transportation construction and land space development process, evaluates the coupling and coordination degree between high-speed transportation and land space, as well as the “development-protection” situation in the years 2000, 2010, and 2020 by means of the coupling and coordination model, spatial autocorrelation analysis, and GIS analysis. The result shows: (1) high-speed transportation construction and territorial space development have been active for a long time, and most of the cities have maintained a high level of increase in these two indicators. In terms of protection indicators, Tangshan and other coastal cities have been lagging behind for a long time without any improvement trend. (2) The coupling and coordination level between high-speed transportation and development is high, with slight weakening over time, with an average annual decrease of less than 0.09%. The change in the coupling coordination level with protection shows the wave dynamics of ‘low-middle-low’. (3) In the future, high-speed transportation will have a significant impact on land space in the country for a long time. In this regard, it is suggested to: (1) promote the construction of high-speed transportation for network, systematic, and serial development; (2) accelerate the extension of the high-speed transportation advantages of the existing growth poles of Beijing and Tianjin; and (3) develop Shijiazhuang and Langfang as the new growth poles. This study will promote the integration of transportation and urban planning, which will contribute to the development of high-quality synergistic urban agglomerations around the world.
