Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to assess the coordinated development degree of land use and eco-environment in Wuxi City and choose the appropriate adjustment mode. Methods employed include documentation analysis, the coordinated development degree model analysis and BP neural network model analysis. The result shows that the coordinated development degree of land use and eco-environment in Wuxi City presents overall ever-increasing trends and that the overall consideration mode can reduce the contradiction between land use and eco-environment, which is a suitable mode for Wuxi City. It is concluded that the coordinated development degree model and BP neural network model have high reliability and practicability in evaluating and adjusting the coordinated development degree of land use and eco-environment in Wuxi City.
