Spatial Patterns of Urban Agglomeration in the Yangtze River Delta Based on Synergy Development
研究了长三角22个城市的经济水平、经济联系和产业协同，发现该区域正从单中心向多中心格局转变，形成以上海为核心、苏杭宁波等为次核心的多核结构，并分为上海、南京、杭州-宁波三个集群。
The rational and orderly spatial pattern will promote the benign development of urban agglomeration. The article uses the theories of synergy development to study the spatial pattern of urban agglomeration in the Yangtze River Delta, and put forward constructive comments, which is based on economic level, economic ties and synergy development of industry between 22 cities in the Yangtze River Delta. The study found that the region of Yangtze River Delta is gradually shifting from a single center to polycentric patterns, forming the multi core structure with the core city of Shanghai and the second core cities of Suzhou, Hangzhou, Ningbo, Wuxi, Nanjing, which can be divided into three groups that is Shanghai cluster, Nanjing cluster and Hangzhou- Ningbo cluster. The study considered that through the group cooperation to achieve the spatial pattern of multi center city is the inevitable trend of the future development in urban agglomeration of the Yangtze River Delta, which is boosting the entire urban agglomeration system to a more orderly evolution of macro self-organization.
