“…The fundamental purpose of the high-quality development of marine economy is to improve the quality of life, and the fundamental connotation is the new development concept. In terms of the perspectives, the previous research on marine economic development mainly focus on the marine economic efficiency [1], marine economic benefits [2][3][4], green development of marine economy [5,6], green total factor productivity of marine economy [7], economic energy of marine ecosystem [8], marine industrial productivity [9], regional differences of marine economy [10], spatial-temporal coordination of marine economic development [11], and the high-quality of marine economic growth [12][13][14][15], etc. Zhao et al [16] analyzed the research dimension, development path, and guarantee mechanism of high-quality development of marine economy from the aspects of connotation, significance, and evaluation.…”

An accurate grasp of the high-quality development of the marine economy is important for the timely adjustment of marine policies and the promotion of sustainable development of the ocean. Based on the latest development philosophy, this paper constructed the evaluation index system of high-quality development of marine economy from five dimensions including innovation, coordination, green, openness, and sharing. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and support vector machine (SVM) model based on the entropy weight composite index were employed to evaluate the high-quality development of China’s marine economy from 2006 to 2017. The spatial and temporal distribution characteristics and dynamic evolution mechanism were revealed. The random forest model was applied to analyze the main driving factors of high-quality development of the marine economy. It was found that: (1) The high-quality development level of marine economy in Guangdong, Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai has always been in the forefront. The growth rate of high-quality development level of marine economy in Guangdong and Shandong was 53.69% and 37.69%, respectively. The growth rates of Fujian and Hainan were 43.46% and 33.68%, respectively. Jiangsu and Zhejiang accounted for 33.30% and 24.47%, respectively. (2) The regulation methods of the main driving factors were examined. It was necessary to adhere to innovative development and improve the marine scientific research, education, management, and service industry, in addition by optimizing and adjusting the marine industrial infrastructure and spatial layout. It is also critical to strengthen the comprehensive prevention and control of land and sea pollution and implement the total emission control of pollutants into the sea. (3) Finally, the pathway for high-quality development of marine economy was analyzed and future directions were proposed.

“…A complex system spatiotemporal coordination degree model of complex systems was used to analyze the interaction of the three major systems of urban marine economic development in the Bohai Rim regions of China (Di et al, 2019;Yu & Di, 2020). A comprehensive benefit evaluation model was established by screening seven typical types of marine development activities in China and evaluating their efficiency (Liu, Wang, et al, 2020). Meanwhile, from the political economy perspective, Jiang and Li (2021) study 11 Chinese coastal regions and reveal that the fiscal decentralization system and the promotion incentives for local government officials are significantly responsible for the deterioration of China's marine environment.…”

Analysis of local governments’ marine governance efficiency using a spatiotemporal coupling coordination model: a case study of coastal cities in Liaoning Province, China

2022

Coastal areas have the most obvious ocean–land interaction and experience the most frequent human activities. As the development of coastal areas has a high degree of spatiotemporal variability, local governments bear direct responsibility for marine governance, yet accurately evaluating and analyzing local governments’ marine governance efficiency in coastal areas is challenging. This study constructs a spatiotemporal coupling coordination model to comprehensively evaluate local governments’ marine governance efficiency in six coastal cities in Liaoning Province from 2004 to 2019. A complex system was necessary to obtain the development level, discrete degree, and development speed of each subsystem. The construction of the evaluation index system was the foundation, and the construction of the spatiotemporal weight matrix was the key. The results show that overall, the local governments’ marine governance efficiency level is generally increasing, and the agglomeration effect is obvious. The efficiency of each cities’ economic, ecological, and social governance subsystem is in a process of continuous and dynamic change. The coupling and coordination degrees of the six governance systems have continuously improved and the spatial and temporal differences have decreased; each city shows different coupling and coordination degrees in each subsystem. Regarding the factors affecting comprehensive marine management, Liaoning’s coastal areas fail to attract foreign tourists; the discharge and treatment of industrial wastewater restricts ecological governance; and the reduction of fisheries hinders the social governance system’s efficiency. The results contribute to the understanding of costal cities’ marine governance and promote the sustainable development of coastal areas.

“…Humans have entered an era of comprehensive marine exploitation, 1 and a legacy of overfishing, habitat loss and accelerated pollution has led to the significant degradation of marine ecosystems and socio-economic losses. 2,3 Both developed and developing countries have made efforts to reverse the increasing coastal degradation, and the large marine ecosystem (LME) concept has been regarded as an effective vehicle for ecosystem-based management of coastal and marine resources within a framework of sustainable development.…”

Under the framework of sustainable development of the marine economy, much consideration has been given to various coastal states for the large marine ecosystem (LME) concept. The Yellow Sea LME (YSLME) is one of the most heavily exploited LMEs in the world, and its sustainable development has been heavily threatened by human activities, with negative impacts on the economies of bordering countries, such as China. With the aim of mitigating environmental threats by developing a low-carbon economy based on low pollution, low energy consumption and low emission, an index system for evaluating marine environmental carrying capacity (MECC) was established in this study based on the entropy method, and gray relation analysis (GRA) was carried out to assess the MECC of three main coastal cities (Qingdao, Yantai and Weihai) along the YSLME in China. The results verified the importance of the environmental carrying capacities (ECCs) of marine resources, marine economy and marine environmental governance for the sustainable development of the YSLME, and revealed paths for improving the MECC of the studied cities. Based on the results, suggestions for ecosystem-based management of a low-carbon economy were provided to help government departments to reasonably develop and utilize marine resources, protect the marine environment and implement sustainable development strategies.
