Abstract

Green development has become a key global response to environmental challenges, including in China, where it is prioritized in the national development strategy. However, rapid urbanization and industrialization in China have led to inefficient land use and environmental issues. Achieving a balance between economic growth and ecological protection poses a major challenge. Urban agglomerations are crucial in China's development, but they face obstacles related to land inefficiency and reliance on traditional approaches. Environmental concerns necessitate a shift towards green economic development, including diversifying industries and reducing dependence oncoal.This study used the Super-Efficiency SBM model to evaluate the urban land greenuse efficiency (ULGUE) within Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration from 2009 to 2019. The findings indicated, temporally, the overall efficiency of the urban agglomerationshowed a fluctuating upward trend over time, although there was a growing disparity in ULGUE among different cities. And the impact of technical efficiency on the improvement of ULGUE surpassed that of technological progress. Additionally, there was a noticeabledifferentiation trend in ULGUE among the cities within the urban agglomeration. Spatially, there was a consistent pattern of high efficiency levels in the southeast and lowefficiencylevels in the northwest. However, spatial correlation in ULGUE was observed only in 2016, with High-High type areas concentrated in Tianjin and Cangzhou. This pattern was highlyrelated to the policies implemented in 2016. To address the challenges, this research suggested implementing differentiated regional land use control policies, optimizing production factors, and leveraging spatial agglomeration effects to improve the ULGUE and achieve the coordinated development in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration.
