Abstract

Based on the perspective of green economy, we established an index system to evaluate industry, city and population, and obtained data from 78 cities in the Yellow River Basin from 2011 to 2020. The entropy weight method, coupling model, kernel density analysis and exploratory data analysis methods were used to analyze the coupling coordination degree and spatio-temporal differentiation characteristics of industry, city and population in the Yellow River Basin. We constructed a Tobit model to analyze the influencing factors. The results show that from the perspective of green economy, the coupling coordination degree of industry, city and population in the Yellow River Basin has improved continuously. Among them, the coupling coordination degree of Shandong Peninsula and provincial capital cities is high, but the coupling coordination degree of some areas in the middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River is low due to human capital factors. The Yellow River Basin should strengthen environmental control, optimize government regulation, guide the inflow of foreign capital and develop green finance to promote the coupling development of industry, city and population.
