Evaluation on the relevance of regional urbanization and ecological security in the nine provinces along the Yellow River, China

In-depth analysis and discussion of the interactive relationship between urbanization and ecological security are basis and prerequisite for ensuring the coordinated development of urbanization and ecological protection. This paper constructed the evaluation index system of urbanization level from f...
