4.1.3 Urbanization and population size
Urbanization and population size are closely linked to the land economic density and they are the important factors to increase the economic density. With the accelerated development of the urbanization, more and more rural population swarms into city, which will ask for more housing and a good living environment quality objectively, so that the building area is expanding gradually in space. In addition, in the process of urbanization, with the production factors and labor force gathered in the city continuously, the city industrial structure will be upgraded and optimized; the productive and technological level will be raised as well. The higher of the productivity, the output capacity of the land is …show more content…
At the same time, urbanization makes the population size expand continuously. The total land supply is limited, but the human demand for the land resources become more and more. The more tense area between the people and land resource, the scarcity of land is relatively stronger (Hao 2002). Besides, population size is an important characterization of the regional economic activities frequency degree and the market scale size. The size of population has a big influence to the quantity of labor force and the potential of market, which is an important factor affecting the land economy density. While the urbanization promoting the city development, it will also facilitate to transfer the land use type from the non-intensive use and low efficiency to intensive use and high efficiency. At the same time, it will create the spatial agglomeration benefits and scale benefits (Wang 2013), which will …show more content…
The changes of land input will affect the changes of land economic density. In the extensive land management stage, land input can bring about the increase of land economic benefits. As the land input continues to increase, the economic benefits of land growth will slow down. When the land reaches a state of high degree of intensive operation, the land economic density has also been to a higher level. If continue to increase the land input intensity, it will result in the excessive use of land, which has a negative impact to the land economic density (Peng&Liu
