By analyzing a comprehensive dataset of marine economic activity in China’s 11 coastal provincial administrative regions from 2006 to 2021, we constructed productivity indices identify regional differences, spatial distribution patterns, and evolutionary trends at the national level, with particular focus on three major maritime circles. The results indicate that economy is generally growing, development new quality (MNQP) eastern circle better than northern southern This gap areas low, high, higher levels gradually increases, while decreases lower levels. gaps degree openness outside world (X4) level financial (X7) are main factors contributing differences productivity. overall center gravity south, indicating rapid growth momentum circle; shows northeast–southwest pattern; agglomeration has increased.

Dual advancement of marine economic growth and environmental governance: an empirical analysis of China’s Marine Economic Development Pilot Zones

Frontiers in Marine Science, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 12

Published: April 7, 2025

Introduction This research aims to empirically investigate the dual effects of establishing Marine Economic Development Pilot Zone (MEDPZ) on marine economic growth and environmental governance. The study focuses China’s coastal provinces, where MEDPZs have been implemented, assess their impacts both aspects. Methods employs a Time-varying difference-in-differences (DID) model based panel data from provinces. method allows for assessing causal impact MEDPZ establishment governance by comparing pilot provinces with non-pilot over time. Results has significantly enhanced in Specifically, increased 1.222 percentage points, while improved 0.748. Additionally, varied spatially across different circles. northern circle experienced most substantial benefits. southern saw significant increase but relatively minor improvement In contrast, eastern was not substantially affected. Discussion findings suggest that effectively boosted competitiveness economy mitigating adverse impacts. is achieved through promoting scientific technological advancement strengthening government regulation. provides basis policymakers formulate implement development strategies consider regional differences, enhance financial support science technology R&D, enforce stricter regulations protection.
