    Discussions on solar radiation modification (SRM) to harness global climate change in academic domain have been rising. This paper gives an interpretation of IPCC ARR regarding its SRM's risks and obstacles on nature and society. SRM serves as an imperfect supplement in carbon emission reduction and removal, can offset radiation from manmade green gas emission through influencing the earth's radiation balance, reaching a fast cooling down and decrease other climatic hazards, but SRM has no solution to source of green gas, whose impacts on nature and human will remain with its rising concentration. Effectiveness and potential impacts of SRM is of spatial heterogeneity, and a long-term risk may be brought to human and nature upon its execution, uncertain on the crops production, human's health and eco-system. Decision must consider the regional heterogeneity and long-term risks to avoid its negative impacts on vulnerable areas and to human's offsprings. Slow research advances, low public recognition and ethic concept, and imbalanced nation's interests impedes SRM's scientific tests and international harness. SRM's research is challenged by unreliable evaluation conclusion, doubtful assumed rationality and future uncertainty. The current scientific basis cannot effectively support SRM's international harness. Nations with different interests, values and geopolitics are hard to reach agreement on SRM. Lack of official responsibilities and laws may bring new risks to international cooperation and peace. SRM's international harness covers policies, laws, science, public participation and technical supports, which shall be jointly developed with technical research.

    It has been a vital topic for speeding up a high integration of the digital economy and green economic transformation in China's academic and social domains. This paper, based on 2005 to 2020 data of China's 280 cities, uses principal component analysis and non-expected output super-efficiency EBM model to measure cities' digital economic level and green economic efficiency and studies the impacts and mechanism of digital economic development on urban green economic efficiency in consideration of endogeneity and robustness. It concludes that digital economy can effectively improve urban green economic efficiency, and enforce the green economic diffusion effects of middle or large cities over their surrounding cities, which overcomes the echo effect over small cities, helping fulfill network effect which turning “core-periphery” structure by displaying green universal welfare functions on differently sized cities and boosting regional green economy. Improvement of digital economy on green economic efficiency is more where has a higher marketizing level and environmental regulations. Digital economy can promote green innovation and economic agglomeration, driving urban low-carbon growth. This paper presents suggestions for governments on raising support for digital industries, on making differentiated function positioning and strategies for differently sized cities, and on creating a sound marketing and policy environment for an entire green transformation.

    Study on simulation and drives of urban temporal-spatial evolutionary features can offer references in planning urban development and managing land resources. This paper uses urban spatial expansion identification mode, spatial expansion features measuring indicators and PLUS model to study Chongqing's 1980 to 2020 urban expansion mode in its downtown, to analyze its spatial pattern changing features and to forecast the future expanding trend with revealing its drives. During 1980 to 2020, as Chongqing had a slowly rising all-directional expansion differentiation in its downtown area, its urban fragmentation has been worsening with an expansion model of “multiple-directional, multiple extended wings and multiple banded” and a pattern of “west-fast-east-slow, southwest-northeast extension”. Chongqing's downtown had experienced a rising-then-falling trend in its expansion speed and intensity, with its urban expanding direction from inner and marginal filling to exterior and urban morphology from compacting to loose, fragmentated and irregular distribution during the study period. Chongqing's downtown will expand to its vicinity in 2030, slowly, of much differentiated expanding directions, mostly influenced by economy and planning policies. Topography, GDP, distance to waters/roads, and development planning are the major drives in impacting its expanding speed. Limited by geographic conditions, under “multiple-directional, multiple-banded” urban pattern, social economic factors mainly on economy, transportation and policies are the key drives for its downtown's spatial expansion. This paper presents suggestions on fulfilling functions of economic strategy, improving economic cooperation with surrounding cities, boosting investments on infrastructure, reinforcing radiation of center city to upgrade urban internal structure and to lead the regional development. Chongqing shall incorporate eco-environmental protection into the future planning, including ecological protection areas, natural protection areas and farmland protection areas, increase resources use efficiency and plan a coordinated sustainability of city and environment.

    Industrial land use is a vital space for holding industrial system construction, its allocating effectiveness directly impacts modernized industrial system construction and development of new productive forces. This paper, bases on a case of Jiangsu province that has a significant base for new productive forces, summarizes its practices and performances in industrial land use allocation, analyzes the issues and presents suggestions, offering references for developing new productive forces through optimized allocation of industrial land use for Jiangsu province or other areas. Jiangsu province has developed key industrial chains into its pros through precisely effective industrial land use allocation, formed a flexible land supply mode via reforming land allocating regime for new industries, and uses extensive land use strategy to find ways to economy. Issues are still existing in industrial land use allocation in three aspects, a fuzzy definition of new industrial land use which requires an further optimization of its industrial land use planning and land supply policies, land supply/withdraw and property ownership system awaiting improvement to meet demands of new industries by land use standards, insufficient in joint supervision by multiple departments after land supplies. This paper presents policy suggestions of and innovative approaches to optimized allocation of industrial land uses from planning which needs to renew pricing standards to explore a flexible land use mode, from effective land use allocation that requires breakthrough in land functions and enabling land inventory and a flexible land supply way, and from supervision which needs optimizing industrial selection, detailing criteria of land users and improving joint supervision.

    Industries are key to economy, fundamentally for a nation's basis. Advancing industrial structures is a vital approach to modernized industrial system, industrial core competitiveness and entering middle-upper end of global value chains. This paper uses industrial commonality index to measure China's 31 provinces' 2012 to 2021 similarity matrix of industrial structures, and applies social network analysis (SNA) and secondary assignment procedure (QAP) to study the spatial correlation characteristics and functioning mechanism. Industrial commonality index can effectively show the asymmetry between inter-provincial industrial structural similarity and regional relation. Spatial correlation network of inter-provincial industrial structures can be divided into 4 domains, the first domain includes Beijing, Tianjin, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Chongqing, at the top of industrial structural network which plays a leading role in optimizing industrial structures. The second domain includes Shanxi, Liaoning, Fujian and Shandong, playing a bridging and mediating role amid industrial migration, interactive with the first domain and outflowing to the third domain. The third domain includes Inner Mongolia, Hebei, Jiangxi, Sichuan, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Anhui, Guangxi, Shaanxi and Jilin, both receiving the second domain's outflowing and outflowing to the forth domain. The forth domain includes the rest, which needs to receive industries from more developed areas in industrial structural adjustment. QAP suggests that labor inputs, human capital, capital types, and end consumption and geographic neighboring may be partially interpretated as spatially correlated, and path to inter-provincial industrial migration and receiving may be optimized.

    China's coal resource-based cities have been entrapped into plight due to their excessive mining activities, which can get resolved through studying the spatial distribution and path optimization of ecological footprints in coal resource-based cities. This paper, based on China's 35 coal resource-based cities, uses energy ecological footprint model and sustainability indicators to measure their energy ecological footprints, ecological deficit/remainder, ecological efficiency and ecological sustainability, and employs STIRPAT model to study their factors. Energy ecological footprints are closely related to energy consumption in coal resource-based cities, largely varying regionally, of which central to eastern China has the maximum energy ecological footprint. Most coal resource-based cities are loosing balance in ecological supply and demands, but their resources utilization efficiency can be gradually promoted under technical advances and supportive policies from perspective of ecological efficiency. Regression results of STIRPAT model shows a positive impact of economy and population on energy ecological footprints in coal resource-based cities, but negative from technical advances. This paper presents suggestions for coal resource-based cities in economic transformation and sustainable development.

    Household as the basic social unit is the major consuming entity. Carbon emission responsibilities established on consumption end are helpful to clarify the stakeholder-based dynamic mechanism for carbon reduction.  The present personal carbon management has a lot of issues, with unclear carbon emission boundary, complex personal carbon trading, personal carbon reduction entangling, and lack of stable management system, which can be resolved if household end as the trading base with urban-rural household carbon account being the core. This paper aims at establishing household carbon account framework on the basis of account range, margin, measurable methods and expandable linkage between urban carbon account and personal carbon sink. This paper summarizes the research situation of personal carbon account and household carbon account, and establishes a urban-rural household carbon account system including three sub-accounts of asset, equity and debits, and determines the measure margin, sampling method and calculation of household carbon account based on China’s featured carbon emission management system. Linkage of urban-rural household carbon account to urban carbon account has been further explained, and its methods have also been designed. Relation between urban-rural household carbon account and  individual carbon inclusion is differentiated. Combination of household carbon account with carbon market, visible hand carbon quota market with invisible hand carbon reduction equity market provides a new path for household consumption end carbon reduction, which may avoid overlapping responsibilities and easily link to China’s carbon management system. Urban-rural household carbon account can be a vital tool for China’s carbon management and carbon reduction, supporting carbon emission quota allocation, carbon reduction and trading, incentive mechanism design for carbon inclusion and mobilization of multi-level nested carbon reduction systems in cities.

    Innovation is the primary force of economy. China has achieved remarkable achievements since the implementation of innovation-driven development strategy. However, the current innovative achievements are focusing on quantity rather than quality with less quality results. In order to produce quality innovative results, to resolve the bottleneck key technologies and to fasten China's quality economy, this paper uses 2011 to 2020 China's A-listed companies as sample to study the impacts and mechanism of enterprises' EGS performance on dual innovation. Their ESG performance can dramatically increase their innovative products, more on their breaking innovation, suggesting ESG can help convert resources into quality innovative products. The mechanism analysis reveals that enterprises' R&D inputs play a mediation role between ESG performance and dual innovation, which is also reinforced by their digital transformation. Heterogeneity suggests ESG performance of developing or declining enterprises plays a stronger role on breaking innovation, compared with maturing enterprises, viewing from enterprises' life circles. ESG performance of developing enterprises on breaking innovation is mainly driven by environmental and social responsibility performance, those declining by social responsibility and internal harness performance. Those developing enterprises should boost their linkages with external stakeholders to acquire more supports, and those declining should focus on their internal harness to improve their internal operations. From enterprises' strategy, cost-oriented enterprises' ESG performance on breaking innovation is stronger than differentiation-oriented ones in innovative intensity, but little difference on progressive innovation. Hence cost-orientated enterprises shall pay attention to ESG construction to promote their quality outputs. This paper presents references for revealing economic aftermath of enterprises' ESG behaviors, optimizing their innovative decisions and for governments to disclose ESG information.

    Continuously raising forest ecological benefits suggests a modernized coexistence between human and nature. This paper systematically summarizes the theoretical basis of impacts of public welfare forest compensation policy on forest ecological benefits, including forest forever usable theory, multiple functional forest theory, near-natural forest theory, providing theoretical supports for further study. Research advances have been stated regarding the impacts of public welfare forest compensation policy on forest production and forest resources in the references with insufficient parts indicated, such as over attention on public welfare forest with ignoring the whole forest ecological benefits, most using farmer's household summarized data. This paper also outlooks the research dynamics of impacts of public welfare forest compensation policy on forest ecological benefits, and presents the four key aspects for future research. Place public welfare forest compensation policy, forest operation and forest ecological benefit changes into a united framework for the purpose of revealing the complicated impacting path and mechanism. Consider the non-linear factors of policy effectiveness to analyze the long-, short-term impacts and heterogeneity of public welfare forest compensation policy on forest ecological benefits. GIS can be used to measure the forest ecological benefits more accurately, and to verify the mediating role of forest management practices during public welfare forest compensation policy impacting forest ecological benefits. From forest farmers' benefits perspective, tests shall be designed to identify their preferred selection among different optimized plans, providing scientific evidence for making policies.

    Long-term over mining activities in Yellow River stream have led to severe eco-environmental issues. It is a key mission to promote a quality economy under environmental constraints. This paper, based on case study on 9 Yellow River stream provinces, selects 3 systems mineral resources development, economy and environment and their 7 tier-2 indicators and 28 tier-3 indicators to establish a coupling coordination evaluation system of mineral resources development, economy and environment in Yellow River stream, which is used to evaluate their comprehensive developing levels of the three systems in 9 provinces via their 2011 to 2021 panel data and by means of entropy. A coupling coordination model is constructed to study their coupling coordination among the three sub-systems with ArcGIS used to analyze its evolution in spatial pattern. All 9 provinces gained a rising comprehensive development index during 2011 to 2021 with down-stream higher than middle-stream and followed by the upper-stream, at 60.9%, 51.9% and 59.2% respectively. Province numbers with high coupling index have been increasing during 2011 to 2021 and provinces with low index have been decreasing. Coupling index in the middle- and down-stream is higher than the entire stream. From time scale, some provinces have been above coordinated during 2011 to 2021, some not with imbalanced coupling coordination but steadily forward. Spatially, all nine provinces have been stably rising in their coordinated index with 8 at coordinated, 88.89% of the total, high in east and low in west with polarization across provinces. This research provides theoretical references for Yellow River stream to protect and harness environment and to reach a regional economic coordinated development. This paper presents suggestions on focusing on imbalanced development, on planning, on developing mineral resources and on boosting eco-environment.

    Securing supply of key agricultural products like crops is the first task for reviving countryside, which can be satisfied through agricultural socialized servicing linking traditional farmer and modern agriculture. This paper, aiming at promoting agricultural socialized servicing, based on its developing logics, uses provincial panel data from 2008 to 2021, entropy, spatial auto-correlation and geographic detectors to measure the agricultural socialized servicing level in the major crop production areas, and to explore its temporal-spatial evolution and factors. During research period, agricultural socialized servicing level in the major crop production areas has been rising, supported by technical information servicing and public servicing. Agricultural socialized servicing in the three major crop production areas has been improved, ranking in a decreasing order, Huanghuaihai, Yangtze River basin, and northeast, displaying different structural features. Spatially, agricultural socialized servicing displays a south-high and north-low pattern, varying provincially but with positively rising concentration. Many factors impact it in a varying manner; top 2 factors include economy and agriculture scale from the view of economic and social development, and agricultural land scale operation and rural residents’ income from the view of rural production and life. This paper present suggestions on overall construction and structural optimization, on making use of resources, on trans-regional sharing resources and regional coordination, on improving rural environment, and on creating more advantages for agricultural socialized servicing.

    Collaborative harness of atmospheric pollution requests acoalition among local governments, which is marked by a jointly-issued environmental policies. This paper, based on official 2009 to 2019 atmospheric environmental policies, uses social network analysis (SNA) and Gephi software to map their network relationship graph among departments, and employs Ucinet to analyze their density and centrality of department collaboration in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Chengdu-Chongqing urban agglomerations, exploring their coordination among governmental departments during environmental harness. In Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration, Beijing has the most extensive atmospheric environmental policies with most departments involved and frequent coordination. Tianjin has the fewest departments involved in making atmospheric environmental policies but with premium internal department coordination. Hebei has the less policy quantities and departments, which shall be further boosted. In Yangtze River delta urban agglomeration, Shanghai has a few atmospheric environmental policies, but with most departments involved and most frequent cooperation. Zhejiang has the most policies with extensive departments involved, less in department coordination. Jiangsu is quite similar with Anhui in policy quantities and involving departments, but Anhui has the least department coordination. In Chengdu-Chongqing urban agglomeration, Chongqing has less policies, less involving departments with little cooperation. Sichuan performs better, but has yet formed a collaborative network mode among departments with “polar-kernel” features. This paper presents suggestions on fulfilling functions of urban agglomeration to establish communicating channels among regional governments and organizations and to form a multiple-department-involving and diversified normalized mechanism in harnessing atmospheric pollution.

    Synergy of pollution & carbon reduction is a key path to China's green low carbon quality development. It is still unclear that how their synergy and harness between air pollutants represented by SO2 & CO2 and green house gas reduction drivers is. This paper, based on 34 prefectures' 2006 to 2020 data in Yangtze River delta, uses LMDI model to decompose SO2 & CO2 emission drivers with the results nested with pollution & carbon-reduction synergy model, and measures their contribution and synergy of pollution & carbon-reduction drivers in energy, economy and environment. Effects of energy structural intensity, economic development and population size play a synergy on SO2 & CO2 reduction in Yangtze River delta, of which only energy structural intensity is positive, other drivers are negative or of no synergy. To advance China's green low carbon quality growth, this paper presents suggestion on fulfilling drivers of synergy in pollution & carbon-reduction along with the potentials of non-synergy factors.

    Energy system entangles with ecosystem with mutual promotion and constraints.Advancement of coordination between carbon emission efficiency of energy consumption and ecological resilience is key to China's “dual carbon” strategy and quality economy.To further study their coupling coordination, this paper establishes an index system of carbon emission of energy consumption and ecological resilience based on China's 30 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), and applies coupling coordination model, spatial autocorrelation model and GM-ARIMA model to study 2004 to 2021 coupling coordination and its temporal-spatial evolution of China's 30 provinces in their carbon emission of energy consumption and ecological resilience, and forecasts their 2022 to 2026 coupling coordination.Their mean value 2004 to 2021 carbon emission efficiency of energy consumption and ecological resilience are less than 0.6 and 0.7, classified four coupling coordination types, basic coordinated, near mis-coordinated, light mis-coordinate, moderate mis-coordinated.From time scale, their coupling coordination during 2004 to 2021 had undergone fluctuated rising, fluctuated falling, continuously falling and stably unchanging trends.Geographically, their coupling coordination has a strong positive spatial auto-correlation with their local spatial concentrating model to be average.Forecast shows that their 2022 to 2026 coupling coordination values of scenario 2 and 3 is higher than scenario 1, suggesting decreasing carbon emission intensity can not only prevent ecological destruction,  but also boost the transformation and upgrade of energy consuming structures.

    Realization of optimal industrial eco-efficiency is of significance to industrial green growth. This paper uses non-expected output SBM model to measure their 2010 to 2021 industrial eco-efficiency of 26 cities in Chengdu-Chongqing economic circle and Wuhan metropolitan circle as representative in the upper- to middle-stream of Yangtze River economic zone, and employs ArcGIS's visualization tools to compare their temporal-spatial evolution, and applies Tobit model and geographical detector model to identify their drives. It shows that their industrial eco-efficiency displays a fluctuating rising trend in two urban circles, with gap in the optimal efficiency. Polarizations partially exist inside prefectures in both circles. Industrial eco-efficiency is jointly constrained by R&D inputs, economy, transportation and openness, of which economy and transportation play a stronger promotion, others play a little in a need of raising foreign investment and intensifying research & development inputs to reach a positive promotion. This paper presents suggestions on strengthening an integrated development inside & outside of urban circle, establishing collective innovation network and increasing openness, aiming at promoting industrial eco-efficiency and local quality economic growth in the middle- and upper-stream of Yangtze River economic zone.

    The northwestern China is facing an imbalanced resources, environment and economy, which needs to verify if the “resource curse” effects and transmission mechanism exist among resources occurrence, resources industrial dependence and economic development to reach a sustainable development in northwestern “resources-economy-environment”. This paper selects 2006 to 2020 panel data of 30 prefectures in China's northwestern 5 provinces to explore the existence of resources curse, presents a conditional “resources curse” hypothesis that resource dependence has an upside-down U-shaped relation with economy. On the basis of clarification of resource abundance and resource dependence, resource dependence is used as explainable variable to study “resources curse”, and GMM is employed to conduct regression analysis on the benchmark model and transmission mechanism. “Resources curse” exists in northwestern China with its resource dependence having an upside-down U-shaped relationship with economy. Material capital investment plays a negative role on economy, more at its curve inflection point, suggesting it do little on avoiding “resources curse”, and may led to its happening to some degree. Employment growth rate, technical inputs, human capital inputs and infrastructures have little effect on economy and curve inflection point, but governmental intervention plays an outstandingly negative role in economy. Estimation of transmission mechanism doesn't show that “resources curse” in the northwestern China has a strong squeezing effect on manufacturing and foreign trading, possibly due to its local supportive policies and developing stages, but the negative impacts of resources dependence on manufacturing and openness cannot be ignored. This paper presents suggestions on boosting private capital construction to improve the impacts of its unfavorable location, on increasing investment along with attracting talents, and on upgrading industrial structure and industrial internal development.

    Asset values materialization of forest carbon sequestration resources plays a key role in obtaining the pilot objective of collective-owned natural resources asset entrust. This paper, based on a framework of situation-proposal-theory-system, studies how to materialize the asset values of forest carbon sequestration resources, providing reference for stakeholders to gain from ownership. Forest storage expansion method and market value method are used to measure the forest carbon sequestration values balance of China’s recent four times of inventorying forest resources with results showing that the balance is huge and has been steadily increasing, which explains the significance of this study. Governmental public data shows that forest carbon sequestration, owning huge values, can be converted into gains only from a small proportion. Forest administrations largely rely on governmental funding. It is vital to create new model to materialize forest carbon sequestration values, to convert balance into asset gains and to realize stakeholders’ benefits. This paper, based on the core connotation of Marxist dialectical materialism, presents a point of gain system view that is macroscopic, linking, and developing design. It equally treats natural resources’ economic values and asset gains, from gains to all-sharing objective. Each key step has been linked to materialize the economic values of forest carbon sequestration resource assets. Based on gain system view, this paper constructs the theoretical mechanism of forest carbon sequestration resource assets from overall framework, key steps and guarantees, initially forming a theoretical system which is employed to conduct system construction. Gains can be obtained through market, finance and industries, and suggestions on system optimization are given. Guarantees of gains can be through interactive-complete entrust, and also through collective ownership in distribution system from three distributions among central government, local government, enterprise and all people. Gain budget and use management should be established to make gain distribution institutional, normalized and public.

    Resources & Industries    2025, 27 (1): 11-21.   DOI: 10.13776/j.cnki.resourcesindustries.20241015.001
    Abstract65)      PDF(pc) (1391KB)(22)       Save
    To reveal the relationship between digital economy and green water resources use efficiency, this paper selects the panel data of China's 31 provinces (excluding Hongkong, Macao and Taiwan) from 2012 to 2022 to establish a non-expected output SBM-DEA model which is used to calculate their green water resources use efficiencies, and applies principal component analysis to measure their provincial digital economic levels, and employs GMM model to study their causality. Green water resources use efficiency is significantly positively impacted by digital economy, positively by economic level, financial concentration and marketing level, negatively by manufacturing level. Robustness test based on four methods, explanatory variables remeasurement, tail-shrinking treatment, removal of municipalities, and shortening sample years, suggests that the outstanding levels and polarity of coefficients of key explanatory variables remain unchanged, meaning a robust conclusion that digital economy promotes green water resources use efficiency. Regional heterogeneity test shows that the impacting effect of digital economy is more significant in eastern areas than in western and central areas. Mediating effect test reveals that structural level changes of three industries variably impact green water resources use efficiency, among which structural upgrading of the first and the second industries plays a mediating role in promoting green water resources use efficiency. This paper presents suggestions on securing industrial structural stabilities and applying differentiated digital economic strategies, on boosting infrastructural construction of digital economy and intensifying talents education, and on increasing R&D inputs and applying comprehensive measures to upgrade digital economy. This conclusion is of significance for driving digital economic development, raising green water resources use efficiency and promoting China's high-quality economy.

    Exploring response of ecosystem servicing values on land use changes provides references in optimizing human-land relation and promoting regional sustainable development. This paper, based on Sichuan's 2000 to 2020 land use data, studies its land use changes, uses ecosystem servicing valuation and gray correlation method to explore the response of regional ecosystem servicing values on land use changes. In Sichuan province, land categories vary in quantities, structural changes and dynamic changes. Ecosystem servicing values in proportion provided by land categories ranks show a decreasing order, woods land, grass land, waters, farmland, unused land and construction land. Woods land, grass land and farmland are major factors contributing to ecosystem servicing values, while waters, construction land and unused land are minor factors. In order to promote a sustainable land use and regional sustainability, appropriate land use planning and policies play a key role. This paper presents suggestion on maintaining a sound growth of ecosystem for different land categories.

    This paper uses statistic methods to study the global lithium resources distribution,development and utilization,and the demanding lithium metal led by the new energy industry,and discusses the issues in China's lithium resource exploration,development and utilization,and rationally analyzes the hot market in China's lithium resources.China's lithium battery industry is growing fast, leading to a surging demand for lithium mineral resources,which can not be satisfied by domestic supply,requiring vast imports.In 2021,China's dependence on imported lithium resources has decreased to 65% from the peak at 80% due to a rising domestic lithium resource development,to 55% in 2022,still highly depending on imports. China has advanced a lot in lithium resources exploration during the recent decade, both in theoretical research and in exploration practice,still with gaps in newly-added lithium reserve and exploration breakthrough with foreign mining giants. China's mining lithium has been increasing as lithium carbonate demands and prices are up,with issues in high mining costs and processing technologies.China's spodumene deposits,high grade,small size,limited by their geographic location, are hard to be mined, low in mining utilization.China's lepidolite deposits,large size, easy mining,but low grade and difficult processing.China's saline lithium has vast reserves,impacted by their geographic locations and high MG/Li ratio,leading to a slow rising production.China's private capitals are competing for domestic lithium exploration rights,resulting in overpayment for owning it,up to thousand times of asking price.Owning lithium exploration rights is not the ultimate objective,the owner should invest the exploration,mining and processing to provide lithium carbonate to the market,forming a sound development of industrial and supply chain.It's the essence of owning a lithium exploration right.

    As reforming natural resources ownership advances, China, aiming to improve resources asset allocating efficiency, visualizing assets values and sharing gains, has conducted a lot of marketing reforms and practices of pay-for-using commercial natural resources rules. This paper overviews the evolution and challenges of commercial natural resources rules, and analyzes the major reform path and effectiveness. Rules have to be placed before owning commercial natural resource properties, which may better constrain agents' and local governmental behaviors and reach the objectives sustainability and sharing gains of commercial natural resource properties. Stimulation set by central government is key to local governments, selection of stimulating structure and local governmental behaviors are impacted by local conditions, which needs to be further studied in order to better fulfill governmental roles. Amid operating commercial natural resource properties, local governments need to master the marketing mechanism in consideration of nature, economy, society, politics to better maintain owners' gains. Commercial natural resources as market-allocated element inside the complicated social-ecological system need to be studied from systematic perspective to disclose the factors and marketing mechanism of owning commercial natural resources.

    At the initial stage of economic development, abundance of natural resources is normally regarded as a favorable factor for economic growth. However, not all economies can obtain sustainable development by their natural resources. Economies of areas with abundant resources have declined due to their resources, falling into a growth trap. This is so-called “resource curse” hypothesis. To clarify if natural resources are either a “curse” or a “drive” to economic growth, researchers have done lots of work on theories and practices. One prevailing viewpoint is that development of natural resources adversely affects economy through “squeezing” the core elements of economic growth. Some statistical models from different perspectives verify that abundance of natural resources trend to hinder economic growth, leading to issues such as worsening environment, simple industry and uneven distribution. It attracts lots of attentions to the relation among resources, environment and sustainable development. “Resource curse” hypothesis is becoming a research hotspot in development economics and regional economics. This paper overviews the “resource curse” hypothesis, analyzes the research advances from origin, evolution, connotation, theoretical explanation and cases, and finds out that natural resources impact economy not in a simply linear way, but in a non-linear way, which has been widely agreed by researchers. Explanations of controlling variables of “resources curse” are variable, but it is agreed that resource dependence is negative to economy, and the higher dependence, the more subject to “resource curse”. The future research should be focused on endogeneity of key variables, selecting appropriate tool variables, samples and methods to increase robustness of conclusion of “resource curse” hypothesis. This paper presents suggestions on exploring causes and mechanisms of “resource curse” in China and attempting new path to transformation in resource-based areas against “resource curse”

    Establishment of paid use system of natural resources is a key task for ecological civilization reform and a vital guarantee to deepen market-allocating natural resources and to drive a quality development. This paper, based on a research framework of “logic analysis-regime evolution-question discussion-path optimization”, analyzes its policy evolution and reveals the major issues and main challenges from the concepts of pay-for-using natural resources, and discusses the direction of and path to optimization with an intension to offer reference for further deepening reform. China's pay-for-using natural resources policy has undergone four stages, free-using, partially-pay-for-using, market-growing, and rule-optimizing, suggesting a continuous exploration and optimization in ranges, means, rights, gains and supervision. Reforming progress varies with resource categories, over-capitalization emerges in highly-market-involved commercial natural resources, but slowly-market-growth in natural resources of public interests. Three challenges are emerging, a higher requirement for synergism of governments and markets over dual supplies of natural resources, inappropriate property rights and gains distribution between upper- and down-stream, differentiated reform progress lagging behind resources supply and managements. For a purpose of optimizing paid use system of natural resources, this paper presents suggestions on top designing based on a principle of unified and division, on controlling entry and pricing mechanism in ruling governmental and market roles, and on clarifying economic relations among property owners and focusing on a loop designing of rules.

    China‘s fast growing electrical vehicles leads to sharply rising used batteries, whose graded utilization needs to be industrialized, but its path and results are directly influenced by different technical directions. This paper, aiming at choosing appropriate investing direction and making matching policies, analyzes the key factors of industrial development from perspective of system based on practices, summarizes scales, costs, gains and profits under different technical directions by taking grid energy storage a scenario, and establishes a systematic dynamics model that is simulated for comparison. Two major technical directions, “decomposing-reconstructing” and “whole package utilization”, have their own pros and cons; however, “decomposing-reconstructing” direction prevails in expansion speed with no constraints of brands. Thanks to scale effect, “decomposing-reconstructing” direction beats the “whole package utilization” at the initial stage, but the latter will be gradually overcoming in a long term. Facilities cost and batter cost are the key factors, the former is falling while the latter is rising, facilities cost proportion has a faster/fluctuated falling compared to the “whole package utilization”, whose growing speed and gains will be largely improved if issues among different brands can be resolved and different EV makers can be united. This paper presents suggestions on selecting technical directions in accordance with national strategies, providing initial funds, offering matching allowance policies, promoting upper-to down-steam cooperation and implementing limited information sharing among different brands.

    All-for-one tourism is a new concept and mode that is presented for innovative touring destination development, which can be evaluated by tourists' satisfaction. This paper, viewing from perspective of tourists' satisfaction perception, establishes an evaluation index system for all-for-one touring destination, which is used to quantitatively evaluate all-for-one touring destination based on a case of Changchun's Jiutai district by means of questionnaire, factor analysis and IPA, aiming at a full understanding of the development of all-for-one touring destination from tourists' perspective, and exploring the gap between all-for-one tourism and tourists' expectations. Tourists' satisfaction on Jiutai district lies between generally satisfied and relatively satisfied, overall at a good level with a lower evaluation score, leaving room to be improved. Factor analysis indicates that, among 4 factors, tourist source market demand gains the highest evaluating score, followed by all-for-one touring resources and destination, all-for-one touring products are low, which needs more attention during development of all-for-one tourism. IPA suggests that among 28 evaluation indictors touring destination location, foods, accommodation, transportation, resort allocation, touring event experiences are high in their evaluation, which need to be well maintained and innovatively developed. Tourists' satisfaction indicators have lower sensitivity on diversity of touring resources and all-for-one touring destination supply, which needs to be maintained as it is. Indicators such as touring resources value, touring resources protection, local featured culture, seasonality of resources, resources distribution, product abundance, resort features, touring administration, touring advertisement, touring safety and smart tourism supporting facilities are limited in attracting tourists, needing to be improved. 9 indicators resources development extent, brand, environmental quality, resorts correlation, timelessness of touring products, prices of touring products, cost performance of touring products, integration with related industries and touring infrastructures are the weak part in Jiutai's all-for-one tourism which need to be developed with priority.

    Boosting public water saving and water saving society construction is a vital path to a quality economy. This paper uses “information-motive-behavior” intervention model to study the impacts of water values perception on public water saving behaviors by means of questionnaires and structural formula. It concludes that water values perception plays a significantly positive intervention on public water saving behaviors, also on water saving motives and techniques which notably promotes public water saving behaviors through a complete mediating role on water values perception. This paper put forward suggestions on enforcing propaganda channels, upgrading water saving facilities, and boosting public exchanges to future promote public water saving behaviors.

    Carbon dioxide rebound effect is the root cause of rising carbon emission along with improving carbon emission efficiency.To further promote energy-saving-emission-reducing potential of Chinese household' resources consumption,this paper,aiming at the producing mechanism of carbon dioxide rebound effect (CRE) from household “water-energy-food” system, uses IPCC to estimate the 2015 to 2020 carbon emission of household water, energy and food consumption in China's 30 provinces, and applies changeable coefficient panel data model to calculate carbon dioxide rebound effect of household “water-energy-food” system,and analyzes its factors.2015 to 2020 carbon dioxide emission from Chinese household “water-energy-food” system in 30 provinces shows heterogeneity,generally stable from household water use,rising from household energy consumption,unchanging or falling from household food consumption.2015 to 2020 carbon dioxide rebound effect of household “water-energy-food” system can be classified as three forms,backfire effect,partial rebound effect and super-energy-saving effect.Rebound effects of household water use are partial rebound effect and super-energy-saving effect,that of household energy consumption is partial rebound effect,and that of household food consumption is super-energy-saving effect.Household usable income per capita and household size are the major factors impacting their carbon dioxide rebound effect of household “water-energy-food” system in China.The change trend of household per capita disposable income is consistent with the carbon dioxide rebound effect of household water consumption, while the change trend of household size is consistent with the carbon dioxide rebound effect of household energy consumption.

    In order to advance research on entire-life cycle system reform of mining land use, led by the State Council and the Ministry of Natural Resources, this paper, based on a research framework of “reform logic-jurisprudence-approaches”, analyzes the dilemma in mining land use reform from perspectives of mining land use stock, increment and transfer, legally clarifies the jurisprudence of mining land use system, and presents direction of and approaches to optimizing mining land use system. Mining land use is facing three plights in illegal land uses, reducing land increment and difficulties in activating land transfer. The external expansion of mining land use concept needs to be determined, especially on widely definition of mining land use ranges. Coordination of responsibilities and rights relating mining land uses needs to be determined from material laws and process jurisdiction. Technical approaches to reforming mining land use system should be systematical, entire and collaborative, starting with land administration entire life circle in planning, acquiring through approval, quitting through transfer, supervision. This paper puts forward suggestions on mining land use planning, on singling out and rolling mining land use, on diversifying acquisition of mining land use, on encouraging quitting of mining land stock to add land values, and on improving collaboration on mining land use permitting and supervision. This paper provides references for improving mining land use system and issuing “clean mining land use” transfer.

    STRUCTURAL OPTIMIZATION OF JIANGSU’S CHEMICAL INDUSTRY CONSTRAINED BY CARBON REDUCTION AND WATER ECOLOGICAL CARRYING CAPACITY

    CHEN Junfei, CHE Yajing, GU Yan, et al
    Resources & Industries    2024, 26 (2): 111-123.   DOI: 10.13776/j.cnki.resourcesindustries.20240305.002

    Yangtze River economic zone, as China’s key strategic zone, is closely related to national development by its ecological restoration and resources use. Jiangsu’s chemical industry, an intensive polluting and resources-depleting industry, needs to properly handle industrial development and resources & environmental protection, which is of significance to protect Yangtze River and realize carbon reduction. This paper establishes a multiple-objective optimization model of chemical industry under dual constraints of carbon reduction and water ecological carrying capacity, and applies NSGA-II-VIKOR algorithm to discuss the way to adjust Jiangsu’s chemical industrial structure. Balanced development scenario, compared with low-carbon, water-saving and economic development scenarios, can save water of 998.48×104  m3 , reduce carbon emission intensity by 4.27%, and make GDP rising rate up to 4.73% on the basis of benchmark year 2017. Water resources are used efficiently and carbon emission is largely reduced, while economy gains high-quality development. Chemical industrial structure needs to be adjusted through developing rubber and plastics, limiting petroleum processing, coking coal and nuclear fuel processing, using water-saving and carbon-reducing measures in chemical fiber manufacturing. Optimization of chemical industry needs to promote clean energy and reform energy consuming structure, with coal use down by 5.54% and gas & electricity use up by 5.45%. Water resources allocation should be consistent with industrial structural adjustment, which can save water by 9.8% in petroleum processing, coking coal and nuclear fuel processing, and 5.14% in chemical fiber manufacturing, which can be transferred to rubber and plastics sector. This paper presents suggestions on increasing regional ecological carrying capacity to realize high-quality development, establishing clean energy consuming system to raise energy efficiency, developing water-saving industries to materialize a coordinated sustainability in industrial development and water ecology.
