Abstract:

The investigation of green development efficiency and its spatial-temporal evolution is significant to regional industrial layout, environmental regulation and policy making, ecological protection and high-quality development strategy of the Yellow River Basin. In view of the present situation of regional heterogeneous development and unbalanced development of provinces and cities in the Yellow River Basin region, a multi-period two-stage DEA model is formulated to measure green development efficiency considering the two-stage economic development and environmental governance status in China. The green development efficiency is calculated based on the green economic efficiency and green innovation efficiency, and the ArcGIS10.6 soft is employed to display the dynamic spatio-temporal evolution of green development along Yellow River Basin region. Results show that it presents tendency of poor in the upper reaches, average in the middle reaches and optimal in the lower reaches for the Yellow River Basin from spatial dimension. Besides, the overall green development level is average, showing a “W” type fluctuation upward trend. There are still some regions with higher level of green development in provinces but lower level of urban development. Finally, according to the different scenarios in Yellow River Basia, reasonable countermeasures and suggestions are put forward including collaborative governance, government guidance, industrial structure, R & D and tax policy.

Key words: Yellow River Basin, green development efficiency, dynamic spatio-temporal evolution, multi-period two-stage DEA model
