    Abstract: The development of scientific research in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is unbalanced and inadequate, and its contribution to technological innovation is insufficient to meet the huge demand for industrial innovation in the Greater Bay Area. This paper tries to clarify the coordination relationship between scientific research and industrial innovation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area since 1997 by constructing the scientific research-industrial innovation coordination data sets, correlation index and relative development index for ten industries in the area. This paper analyzes the evolution and interaction rules of scientific research and industrial innovation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and puts forward corresponding countermeasures. The research found that scientific research and industrial innovation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area showed an overall upward trend while the coordinating level varies from industry to industry. Among the ten industries analyzed in this paper, communication technology and integrated circuit have reached a high level of coordination; marine engineering equipment is still in the primary coordination stage; and other industries are at a good level of coordination. The scale advantage and competitive advantage of scientific research are dynamic for the improvement of coordination level, which suggests that we should combine the scale effect and competitive advantage of innovation, pay high attention to originality and leadership, and strive to form the special and preponderant advantage of regional scientific research.

    Abstract: Based on the systematic review of the research progress on China’s relative poverty, this study discussed the distribution characteristics of the relative poverty areas (RPAs), the basis of regional function types, and proposed the policy recommendations. There are three main periods concerning sustainable development research on RPAs: (1) The concept of “relative poverty” was adopted for the first time to carry out scientific research on regional sustainable development. (2) It supported the RPAs to become an important type of the area to promote sustainable development policies in underdeveloped areas in China. (3) It deployed a protracted battle in advance to support the development of RPAs before the comprehensive accomplishment of anti-poverty. The change characteristics of the RPAs and the regional function types indicated that the scale of the relative poverty population in China has remained at around 200 million for a long time, and the pattern of concentrated distribution has not changed. Meanwhile, taking ecological service function as the main regional function types, areas with and lack of development conditions coexist in the RPAs constrained by the natural carrying capacity. Policy recommendations are proposed to promote the simultaneous realization of modernization in the RPAs on a higher stage as follows. From a global perspective, the optimization regulation and spatial governance of the Man-Land system should be carried out to stabilize the national defense, ecological, food, energy, and social security. For regions with development potential, the comparative advantages of the resources and ecology should be transformed into economic advantages through mechanism innovation, thereby solving the intergenerational transfer under “path dependence” and the interregional exfoliation under the “Matthew effect”. For regions lack of development conditions, natural carrying capacity should be steadily unloaded, the mountain, forest, farmland, lake, and grassland should be conserved systematically, and the equalization level of basic public services should be improved comprehensively.

    Abstract: Poverty is a major challenge faced by human development, especially the global problem that has plagued developing countries, including China, for a long time. As rural absolute poverty population and poverty-stricken counties will achieve poverty alleviation in 2020, China’s anti-poverty focus in the new era will begin to shift from targeted poverty alleviation in absolute poverty areas to high-quality development through comprehensive measures in relative poverty areas. Based on an initially constructed conceptual model of high-quality development in relative poverty areas, this article analyzed the internal and external constraints from the sustainability of individual and regional scales, and further proposed comprehensive policies to ensure that poverty would not be returned after 2020 and high-quality development would be achieved. It is necessary to guide the rational flow of population and development factors, reshape the appearance of urban and rural interaction and equivalent development, further promote the value of resources and ecological advantages, and focus on key poverty areas such as the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Taking the “14th Five-Year Plan” period as the transition period, formulate flexible and accurate identification standards for relative poverty population and areas, focus on the integration of various poverty alleviation policy tools and resources, and form a centralized, distributed, and mobile highquality infrastructure and public service guarantee system.

    Abstract: Strengthening human resilience against disasters’ disturbance plays an important role in realizing the UN sustainable development goals. The study investigates the occurrence and evolution of major natural disasters and diseases in the world during the past century. It finds out that the major disasters gained frequency and impact after human entering the 21st century. Further, it indicates that the distorted human-nature relationship, rural decline and poverty in Sub-Sahara Africa, globalization have escalated the impact of major disasters. Finally, we propose ways to improve the resilient capacity of human being in terms of multiple perspectives.

  • Industrial Development of World-class Bay Areas and Its Enlightenment to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area

    Subjects: Other Disciplines >> Synthetic discipline submitted time 2023-03-28 Cooperative journals: 《中国科学院院刊》

    Abstract: In the Outline Development Plan for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, it is pointed out that the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) should “develop a vibrant and internationally competitive first-class bay area and world-class city cluster, and build a role model of high-quality development.” This study compares the industrial development of GBA and three other world-class bay areas. It is found that GBA possesses the fundamental conditions for developing into an international first-class bay area in total scale, but the equality of economic growth is not high. Regionalization and industrialization are the main characteristics of the area, and the high-end service industry has huge development space. The industrial segmentation pattern between Hong Kong, Macao and nine cities of Guangdong is serious, and the cooperation potential is great. Therefore, the industrial isomorphism between nine cities of Guangdong Province needs to be further coordinated and solved. In the future, it is necessary to further promote regional coordinated development and enhance the international competitiveness and influence of the bay area through expanding opening-up.

    Subjects: Other Disciplines >> Synthetic discipline submitted time 2023-03-28 Cooperative journals: 《中国科学院院刊》

    Abstract: The electricity industry has a solid foundation and a long history in the Yellow River Basin owing to the large reserves of energy minerals, wind power, solar power, and hydropower. Giving full play to the positive socioeconomic benefits of power industry and controlling the negative environmental impact are of great significance to the ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin, which are also crucial to the safety of energy supply. Through the analysis of the micro data of 6000 kWand-above power plants, this study depicts the spatial and temporal development pattern of electricity industry in the Yellow River Basin from 2003 to 2017 in the perspectives of power plants construction, power production, and so on. The formation of the current pattern is mainly affected by both resource endowment and electricity demand. The existing problems of the electricity industry in this area are as following: little growing space for hydroelectricity, installed capacity surplus, and low efficiency of thermal-power and the insufficient consumption of wind and solar power. In order to realize the environmentally-friendly development of electricity industry, we should promote the clean and efficient utilization of thermal power, the integrated development of resource-based industries through electric power reform and institutional innovation, solve the problem of wind power consumption through the transformation of coalfired plants’ flexibility and the complementary production of hydro and solar electricity, coordinate the contradictions during the development of wind and solar power, and promote the electricity technical advancement and the innovation of system mechanism to drive regional development.
