“…During the past 20 years, the geographical focus has shifted away from North America (22)(23)(24)(25) and Europe (26,27) toward Asia, especially China. Efficiency evaluation (28)(29)(30), system evolution (31)(32)(33)(34), port integration (35)(36)(37), development potential (38), and management (39) have frequently been investigated in relation to the ports along the Yangtze River and Pearl River.…”

Inland waterway transportation is an essential part of the waterborne transportation system that supports the Blue Economy of the U.S.A. The utilization of inland waterway ports determines the realization of the full potential of the Blue Economy system. Using data from the state of Mississippi as an example, this paper applied a modified gravity-based accessibility measure to assess the ease with which each Mississippi inland waterway port was able to reach port-related markets in Mississippi and its four neighboring states. The accessibility indices were based on highway-only and highway–railway networks, and they were analyzed to examine the advantage of using an intermodal network as opposed to a single-mode network. In addition, the ease with which each port was able to reach markets both in Mississippi and in several neighboring states was investigated to examine the impact of enlarging the market area on the competitiveness of a port in relation to its accessibility. Understanding the ease with which a port can reach markets compared with other ports can help the port authority or local agency to use its accessibility as a competitive advantage in the local, regional, or national economy and identify improvements or niche markets.

“…In addition, hinterland population and secondary industry promote the growth of domestic trade throughput. Fixed asset investment significantly affects domestic trade throughput and foreign trade throughput [38]. Bottasso et al suggest that an increase in the level of port throughput in a given region tends to increase GDP in that particular region by using a spatial panel econometric framework which controls for spatial fixed effects [39].…”

“Port–hinterland synergy” means the development of port and hinterland should promote each other. The “dual circulation” development pattern indicates the requirement of exploring the domestic transportation demand and promoting the integration between ports and hinterlands. However, the current research on the synergy level between ports and hinterlands is not enough to meet the needs of constructing a “dual circulation” development pattern, and few studies have explored the influencing factors of port–hinterland synergy level directly, especially in the context of the new development pattern of “dual circulation”. After investigating the synergetic mechanism between ports and hinterlands, this study proposes to further consider the influence of fixed assets allocation and social commodity circulation on the synergy level under the “dual circulation” pattern. So, fixed asset investment and three different forms of commodity circulation activities are selected to represent the corresponding hinterland’s economic activities and added into the evaluation indices. To assess ports’ responsiveness to different kinds of transport demand, throughputs of each port are divided into those of domestic and foreign countries. Then this paper evaluates the level of port–hinterland synergy by the coupling synergy model, and the influence degree of these activities on the synergy level was studied with the partial least squares regression (PLS). The results show that there is heterogeneity in regional and port positioning in the port–hinterland synergy level, and that four selected economic activities’ improvement can enhance the port–hinterland synergy level. Among them, retail industry has the strongest positive effect, followed by tertiary industry, import and export trade, and fixed asset investment.

“…Under the green dual-circulation development pattern, China combines the green development direction and promotes the benign interaction between domestic economic circulation and high level open external circulation. This means that China must continue to deepen its openness while also persevering in changing and innovating its institutions and policies [6]. The Pilot Free Trade Zone (PFTZ), as a new highland for national institutional innovation and opening up, not only creates more favorable conditions for connecting domestic and international markets, but also speeds up domestic market reform and continues to deepen global economic and trade cooperation [7].…”

“…Considering internal circulation, external circulation, and green factors, this paper uses the entropy weight method to construct a comprehensive evaluation index system of GDC. Second, although some academics investigate the economic [8][9][10][11], trade [12][13][14][15], and environmental [16][17][18] effects of PFTZs, these policy assessments consistently examine economic growth and environmental protection separately, either disregarding or using China's dual circulation development layout as a backdrop [6]. Therefore, this study selects a new research perspective and focuses on analyzing the impact of PFTZ policies on GDC.…”

Accelerating the formation of a green dual-circulation pattern is an essential strategic choice for China to achieve high-quality development. As a vital link for two-way economic and trade cooperation, the pilot free trade zone (PFTZ) is an important window for promoting green dual-circulation development. From the perspective of green dual-circulation, this paper attempts to construct a comprehensive index system of green dual-circulation by entropy weight method based on Chinese provincial panel data from 2007 to 2020 and uses the Propensity Score Matching–Difference in Differences method to test the policy impact of PFTZ building on regional green dual-circulation. The empirical results show that: (1) the establishment of PFTZs significantly promotes regional green dual-circulation development by 3%-4%. This policy effect has a strong positive impact on the eastern regions; (2) PFTZs can improve regional green dual circulation through the effect of green finance, technological progress, and the agglomeration of innovative talents. The mediating effect of green finance and technological progress is more pronounced; (3) The promotion effect of PFTZs is primarily due to the local green circulation effect, with no significant effects on the surrounding areas; and (4) There is a positive policy linkage effect between PFTZs and the Belt and Road Initiative. This study creates the analytical perspective and empirical support for assessing the policy impact of PFTZs and provides management insights for PFTZ policymakers in promoting green dual-circulation development.
