- Abstract
This paper studies the evolution process of the urbanization and ecological environment level of 28 cities in the city cluster along the middle reaches of the Yangtze River in China from 2007 to 2017 on the scale of city cluster and discusses the coordination relationship between the two. The research found that: (1) During the research period, the urbanization level and the ecological environment level of 28 cities increased significantly. (2) The urbanization is generally at a low level and the spatial imbalance among cities is gradually expanding; the ecological environment is generally at a medium level and the spatial imbalance among cities is gradually decreasing. (3) The center transferring track and the center variation consistency of the urbanization level and the ecological environment level present a changing trend of "reverse direction - same direction", and the overall coordination of the two is gradually enhanced. (4) The spatial coordination between the urbanization level and the ecological environment level is constantly enhanced. The Getis-Ord Gi* index generally shows a spatial distribution feature of "high in the southeast area and low in the northwest area".
