Figure 1. 57 Districts and Counties in the Huaihai economic zone core city cluster study area. The scope of the study area follows the hierarchical relationship of provincial, city, and county levels from large to small. Figure a shows the spatial location of the Huaihai economic zone in China and its provincial relationships with the four surrounding provinces; figure b shows the extent of the city-level areas and core cities included in the Huaihai economic zone; and figure c shows the 57 county-level areas included in the core cities of the Huaihai economic zone.
