Temporal Changes and Spatial Driving Mechanisms of Water Ecological Footprints in the Context of Urbanization: Taking Three Major Urban Agglomerations in China’s Yangtze River Economic Belt as an Example
Abstract:Urbanization, which is accompanied by the flow of various production factors, leads to increasingly close spatial linkages between cities, and exerts profound influences on water resource use. This study focuses on the three major urban agglomerations in China’s Yangtze River Economic Belt, and examines the temporal changes and spatial variations of its water resource use based on an improved water ecological footprints (WEFs) model that uses city-level data to calculate yield factors and considers the recycli… Show more
