Abstract:

Based on the concept of elasticity and coupling relationship between ecological environment and city development in resourcesbased city,seven types of coordination degree are deduced,and corresponding judgment basis and evaluation method are also put forward to distinguish it.According to the connotation and characteristics of ecological environment and city development,by reference to relevant research results,evaluation indicator systems are respectively constructed for ecological environment and city development in resourcesbased city.Then taken Pingxiang city as a case of research,the ecological environment index and city development index are respectively calculated by applying the method of factor analysis.Coordination degree of ecological environment and city development is then researched for Pingxiang city from 1994 to 2006.The results show that Pingxiang city in that period involved in five types of coordination degree,i.e.development of coupling coordination (seven years),development of ecological imbalance (three years),development of stable coordination (one year),imbalance of city development (one year) and basic coordination (one year),which indicates that coordination development is the main type of coupling relationship between ecological environment and city development in Pingxiang city.From the view of development course,it could be divided into coordination development stage (i.e.1994~1999) and fluctuation development stage (i.e.2000~2006).With the case study,it proves that the evaluation system which is simple and effective,could properly distinguish the coordination degree between ecological environment and city development in resourcesbased city,and has significance to constitute development schemes and policy measures.〖 〖
