“…Government played a critical role in the intensified contradictions of urban-rural relationships (Yang et al, 2016). Spatial heterogeneity of urbanrural transformation does exit in national (Wang et al, 2016) and regional scale . These studies descripted characteristics of urban-rural transformation at the national and regional scale, while at county/district, even village scale, what situation is it?…”

“…For one thing, the number of urban people was rigidly restricted by implementing household registration system; for another thing, the central planning development and state-led industrialization model caused city industrialization tendency, and the mutual linkages between industrialization and urbanization was greatly restrained (Wang et al, 2016).…”

a b s t r a c tThis paper aims to investigate the spatial patterns, temporal processes and driving mechanisms of urbanrural land use transformation (URLUT). Empirical study of Xuanhua district of Hebei province from 1996 to 2012 showed that urban-rural land use transformation index (URLUTI) decreased linearly with increasing distance to central downtown (DCD), and the gap between central and edge areas increased during 1996e2012. Spatial autocorrelation showed an accelerating clustered pattern, and the hot spots shifted from decentralization to centralization and then back to decentralization. Industrialization and urbanization were the basic driving factors of URLUT, and local, regional and national social and economic transformation deeply and widely affected its development. The study highlights that the regional development should implement correct urban-rural transformation strategy and plan according to its location and nature resources conditions, and obey the spatial laws of urban-rural transformation for improving the efficiency of land use and promoting urban-rural integration. Furthermore, the government's intervention to economic development should be reduced and let the market play more roles in the allocation of resources.

“…The urban-rural inequalities based on the dual household registration system, such as education, employment, housing, health care, social security and so on, harms social fairness and justice, affecting the sustainable development of the economy and social stability [34][35][36]. From 1978 to 2014, the income gap between rural and urban residents increased from 2.57:1 to 2.97:1 [6].…”

“…The demand for urban land occurred gradually through rapid urbanization and industrialization [8]. The urban built-up area increased from 35,469.65 km 2 in 2007 to 49,772.63 km 2 in 2014 [7]. The supply of are still many shortcomings in current studies: with respect to the study scale and research content, most studies pay more attention to the national scale and only mainly analyze urban construction or rural residential land.…”

Spatiotemporal Decoupling between Population and Construction Land in Urban and Rural Hubei Province

et al. 2017

Abstract:In urban and rural areas under rapid urbanization, a proper understanding of the relationship between population and construction land use is important for regional sustainable development. The decoupling method is a particularly useful way to examine this relationship. However, the decoupling method only considers the current relationship between population and construction land, ignoring the initial status in the base year. Based on an improved decoupling model, vector land-use data (1:10,000 scale) from two National Land Investigations, and demographic data from the China Statistics Bureau, this paper analyzes population and construction land use change patterns as well as the types of coupling in urban and rural Hubei. The results better reflect the relationship between population and construction land use. The outcomes show that from 2009 to 2014, both the urban population and urban construction land use increased while the rural population decreased as rural settlement land use expanded. In 61 counties, the relationship between the urban population and construction land use showed expansive negative decoupling; that is, the growth rate of urban population was less than the growth rate of the urban construction land use. In 72 counties, the relationship between the rural population and rural settlement land showed a strong negative decoupling; that is, the rural population decreased while the rural settlement land use increased. The relationship between the urban-rural population and construction land use can be divided into eight types. Only nine counties are somewhat coordinated, while the other counties were all uncoordinated. Suggestions are provided by comparing per capita urban construction land and per capita rural settlement land in the base and current years with the national standard and considering the coupling types for population and construction land use change in urban and rural settings. Finally, we discuss approaches to optimize urban-rural space organization and promote coordinated urban-rural development.

“…The migration of the rural population to the cities has left many dwellings in the inner village areas seasonally or permanently unoccupied. This process has been the cause of several peculiar and unique changes in the relationship between the RSL and the RRP, and it also strongly affects rural sustainable development [2,14]. In this context, an ability to quantitatively describe the relationship between the RSL and the RRP is essential for understanding their changing relationship.…”

Spatiotemporal Changes in Rural Settlement Land and Rural Population in the Middle Basin of the Heihe River, China

Abstract:Understanding the relationship between the spatiotemporal expansion of rural settlement land and the variation of rural population is the foundation of rational and specific planning for sustainable development. Based on the integration of Landsat TM, ETM+, and OLI images and demographic data, using mathematical models, landscape indexes, and a decoupling model, the spatiotemporal changes of the rural settlement land area and its decoupling relationship with the rural registered population were analyzed for the middle basin of the Heihe River in China. During the period 1986-2014, the following changes occurred: (1) The study area experienced increases of 124.94%, 55.16%, and 1.56% in rural settlement land area, number of patches, and rural registered population, respectively; (2) Edge-expansion, dispersion, and urban encroachment were the dominant patterns of dynamic changes in the studied rural settlement land. Among these, edge-expansion was the most prevalent development pattern; it contributed more than half of the total increase in the number of patches and the total area growth; (3) The annual growth rate of the rural registered population increased from 0.7% in 1986-2002 to´0.5% in [2002][2003][2004][2005][2006][2007][2008][2009][2010][2011][2012][2013][2014]. By that time the rural settlement land area had undergone a gentle increase from 3.4% to 3.6%. Generally, the rural registered population and rural settlement land has experienced a shift from weakly decoupled in 1986-2009 to strongly decoupled in 2009-2014; (4) From 1986 to 2014, rural urbanization and modernization were the main causes that led to the decline in the rural registered population; however, economic growth promoted the expansion of rural settlement land during this same period. We believe that with the rapid development of urbanization, the decoupling relationship between the rural settlement land area and the reduction in the rural registered population cannot be completely reversed in the short term. It is recommended that the government should enhance the role of planning rural settlement land during the process of urbanization.
