Efficiency Measurement and Determinant Factors of Marine Economy in China: Based on the Belt and Road Perspective by Yinyin Wang, Conghua Xue, Huimin Li, Kaizhi Yu

“…The research found that (1) the average change of marine economic efficiency is not large, and the efficiency values among most provinces are relatively stable. (2) The center of gravity of marine economic efficiency gradually shifts from the northeast to the southwest; the spatial scope continues to shrink, the level of flatness indicates increase at first followed by decrease, and the direction angle shows a fluctuating trend. (3) The compliance rate of industrial wastewater discharge and the diversification of the marine industry structure have strong explanatory capacity in marine economic efficiency in the coastal areas. …”
