Energy, economy and ecological environment complement each other. The coupling and coordination development of them would provide basis for the rational use of energy, economic development, and the protection and restoration of the ecological environment. In this study, the coupling and coordination development of the Australian energy, economy, and ecological environment from 2007 to 2016 were quantitatively investigated by constructing a coupling coordination model based on coupling theory. Results showed that: (1) Australia’s comprehensive evaluation index of energy, economy, and ecological environment exhibited an increasing trend. The rising trend of the energy index was obvious, the economy was relatively stable, and the comprehensive evaluation index of the ecological environment strongly fluctuated. (2) The development of energy and the economy, and that of energy and the ecological environment were gradually coordinated, and many unbalanced development patterns were found between the economy and the ecological environment. (3) Four types of coordination were observed in the three subsystems, among them, the barely coordinated categories repeated most often and the coordination degree of the three subsystems tended to grow from the global perspective. Energy, economy, and ecological environment interacted, limited, and promoted one another to form a complex system, through proper coordination, these three subsystems can jointly promote the sustainable development of society in Australia.

Environment Sustainability

Ecological environment evaluation is of great significance to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and promote the harmonious development of economy, society, and environment. To evaluate environmental SDGs, single environmental indicators have been analyzed at national or large regional scale in some literature, while the urban integrated environment is ignored. Therefore, it is necessary to systematically and quantically evaluate the sustainability of ecological environment integrating the water, soil, and air environment at the urban scale. This study aims to construct the Integrated Perception Ecological Environment Indicator (IPEEI) based on the Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) framework to solve the above-mentioned problems. The IPEEI model was proposed based on the three-level association mechanism of the Domain-Theme-Element, and the DPSIR framework conforming to the relevant standards for indicator determination. Moreover, the multi-dimensional, multi-thematic, and multi-urban quantitative evaluations were conducted using the entropy weight method, and the comprehensive evaluation grades by the Jenks natural breaks classification method of the geospatial analysis. Nine cities in the Wuhan Metropolitan Area were selected as the experimental areas. The results were consistent with the Ecological Index and local government’s planning and measures, which demonstrated that IPEEI can be effectively verified and applied for the evaluation of urban ecological environment sustainability.

Abstract The relationship between socioeconomic and ecological environment become a significant factor influencing the sustainable development of resource-based cities (RBCs), the transformation of RBCs is a key component of regional high-quality development. A comprehensive evaluation indicator system was constructed to research the coupling coordination level of RBCs in this paper, the dynamic DM model and the CCD model were adopted to measure the comprehensive level of the coupling coordination degree between socioeconomic and ecological environment of the 9 resource-based cities in Sichuan province. The results showed that the coupling coordination level was not ideal. Only two cities were located to the moderate coordination, and other cities were located to the primary coordination or tiny coordination. In addition, there was a significant different between SE and EE, and the comprehensive evaluation score of SE was lower than that of EE in eight RBCs, which accounting for 88.89%. Based on this, the policy suggestions for the sustainable development of different type of RBCs were provided. This study offers a model of China’s experience that might be benefit for achieving sustainable development goals (SGDs) of other cities and countries.

Fuzzy Pattern

Through identifying the exploitation and utilization of water resources system, this paper establishes an improved fuzzy pattern recognition model by combining fuzzy matter-element model with the improved entropy evaluation method and sets up the comprehensive evaluation index system which includes 3 layers and 10 indicators from two aspects: water utilization efficiency and water ecological environment. The proposed model and evaluation index system are applied to evaluate the comprehensive exploitation-utilization grade in Shandong Province. Results show that the exploitation-utilization of water resources and water ecological environment are not balanced in Shandong province, this indicates that the growth of ecological benefits and the protection of water ecological environment are ignored in the process of water resources exploitation-utilization.

It is generally accepted that coevolution between soil and plant has great significance for the sustainable development of mining dumps in fragile eco-environment. However, this was not very clear in opencast mine area located in Western China. Based on comprehensive index systems and a combination of subjective and objective weighting method, a coupling coordination degree model, including comprehensive evaluation function, coupling degree and coupling coordination degree, was established to find the ‘short plank’ of different reclamation patterns and to quantify the status quo of coevolution between soil and plant systems in mined plots. The results indicated that only the plot with Pinus tabuliformis was under synchronous development, a mixed model of Robinia pseudoacacia – Pi. tabuliformis and R. pseudoacacia monoculture were developed with vegetation lagging, while plots R. pseudoacacia – Ulmus pumila – Ailanthus altissima and original landform were soil lagged. All plots were in the state of primary and intermediate coordination. Thus, some effective measures should be taken for the further development in different patterns.

The Ability of Symbiotic Innovation in Sustainable Technology (ASIST) plays an important role in the sustainable development. It is of great strategic significance for enterprises to evaluate this ability scientifically and rationally. How can we evaluate it in a scientific, rational, standardized and quantitative way? In this paper the author thinks that ASIST is an ability system of multifaceted and multileveled components, such as the abilities of symbiosis with economic, social, natural and scientific & technological resource environment. The evaluation of this ability is a problem of multifactor, multilevel and fuzzy comprehensive decision, so it is reasonable and effective to select and apply the method of Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation (FCE). After constructing an evaluation index system composed of 4 factors and 15 indexes, the author proposes and analyses preliminarily the general models and process to evaluate the ability using FCE. The models include the basic, multilevel and multioperator ones and the process composes of 5 main steps. He further illustrates the general solution of the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation of ASIST with a practical example, in the hope of realizing the evaluation to be scientific, rational, standardized and quantitative.

The Impact

Water resources is an important basic energy. The determination of weights is one of the important indexes in water resources evaluation system and reasonable allocation of weights is the key to quantitative evaluation. In order to establish a scientific evaluation index system of the influence of mining disturbance on water resources for purpose of a more reliable and effective evaluation result and realizing the protection of water resources system, a comprehensive evaluation system of water resources based on PSO-AHP model is proposed in the paper. Combined with the specific geological environment characteristics of mines, this paper establishes a four-level evaluation index system after identifying the factors affecting water resources and ecological environment. By applying the particle swarm optimization (PSO) to the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method, a PSO-AHP model and then a fitness function are constructed to solve and optimize the weight values in the evaluation index system, and the calculated weight values are checked by consistency checking method. The evaluation results suggest that the index system can accurately reflect the impact of mining on water resources and water ecological environment and etc., providing certain reference value for sewage resourcing and reducing the harmful effect on environment by sewage discharge.

While tourism has become a strategic pillar industry, adding vitality to regional development, ecological and environmental problems have become increasingly prominent. Based on the evaluation index system of ecological environment and tourism development, the paper takes Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region as an example and uses entropy weighting method to reduce the dimension of the original data. Then, the coupled coordination model is used to compare and analyse the comprehensive development index of the two systems from 2009 to 2018, as well as the development level of the coupling coordination degree between the systems. The results are as follows: (1) Ecological environment and tourism development are interrelated and mutually restricted, with positive and negative feedback. (2) The comprehensive development level of ecological environment system and tourism development system is generally on the rise. The coupling degree fluctuates between the two systems, but the coordination degree and the comprehensive development index show a trend of steady growth on the whole, which accords with the characteristics of high coupling and not high coordination. (3) Finally, according to the development of the coupled coordination model, some suggestions on future ecological environment and tourism development are put forward.
