摘要
In the context of sustainable development,it is important to thoroughly investigate the coupling mechanism between China ' s eco-environmental quality and human activities,as well as identify the influencing factors,in order to provide scientific references for achieving sustainable development goals in China. This study applied trend analysis,coupling coordination degree,LMDI,and optimal parameter geographic detector models to explore and evaluate the coupling mechanism between China's eco-environmental quality and human activities. The findings of the study were as follows:① During the research period,there was a growth trend in China's coupling coordination degree,human activities,and eco-environmental quality. Human activities and coupling coordination degree exhibited a spatial differentiation pattern with the Hu Line as the boundary,showing an“east high,west low”distribution. The eco-environmental quality demonstrated a“south high,north low”differentiation pattern. ② The overall trend of China ' s coupling coordination type transformation was shifting from lower-level to higher-level coordination types. ③ Based on the geographic detector and LMDI models,the dominant factors influencing the coupling coordination degree in most provinces east of the Hu Line were social and economic factors,as well as the comprehensive coordination index. In contrast,the dominant factors in most provinces west of the Hu Line were natural environmental factors and coupling degree. ④ The evaluation of the impact of changes in human activities on eco-environmental quality revealed that the regions east of the Hu Line were mainly characterized by favorable development and effective protection,whereas the regions west of the line were mainly characterized by destructive development and ineffective protection. It is suggested that the regions on both sides of the Hu Line should prioritize development based on local prerequisites influencing the coupling coordination degree and the relative relationship between human activities and eco-environmental quality. It is crucial to actively adjust development strategies and pursue a sustainable development path towards the high-level coordination between eco-environmental quality and human activities. © 2024 Science Press.
