摘要：
Convergence analysis of China's urban green land-use efficiency (GLUE) will help to explore whether regional differences in GLUE determined by regional economic development and imbalance of resource endowments gradually decrease over time. We construct a DEA model considering variable returns to scale to measure Chinese urban GLUE, and discuss the convergence of Chinese urban GLUE. We find that Chinese urban GLUE is generally low. GLUE of eastern cities is the best. GLUE of non-resource-based (NRB) cities is higher than that of resource-based (RB) cities. GLUE of Pearl River Delta Economic Zone is the highest, while that of Comprehensive Economic Zone of Central 6 Provinces is the lowest. Chinese urban GLUE is mainly affected by technological change. Chinese urban GLUE shows absolute and conditional beta convergence, and the gap of GLUE between cities is constantly narrowing. Cities in different locations, resource dependence degrees, and economic zones have different convergence rates. The conclusions help the Chinese government to formulate policies for intensive land use, improve national GLUE, and promote urban intensive and high-quality development.
