However, research about comparing their changes at the megaregion level is relatively rare. In this study, we depicted the differences and inequalities of urban land and efficiency among megaregions in China using China\u2019s Land Use\/cover Dataset (CLUD) and China\u2019s Urban Land Use\/cover Dataset (CLUD-Urban). Furthermore, we analyzed regional inequality using the Theil index. The results indicated that the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Great Bay Area had the highest proportion of urban land (8.03%), while the Chengdu-Chongqing Megaregion had the highest proportion of developed land (64.70%). The proportion of urban impervious surface area was highest in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Great Bay Area (75.16%) and lowest in the Chengdu-Chongqing Megaregion (67.19%). Furthermore, the highest urban expansion occurred in the Yangtze River Delta (260.52 km2\/a), and the fastest period was 2000\u20132010 (298.19 km2\/a). The decreasing Theil index values for the urban population and economic density were 0.305 and 1.748, respectively, in 1980\u20132015. This study depicted the development trajectory of different megaregions, and will expect to provide a valuable insight and new knowledge on reasonable urban growth modes and sustainable goals in urban planning and management.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs11151834","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,8,7]],"date-time":"2019-08-07T03:09:08Z","timestamp":1565147348000},"page":"1834","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Comparison of Changes in Urban Land Use\/Cover and Efficiency of Megaregions in China from 1980 to 2015"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2733-7386","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shu","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Land Surface Pattern and Simulation, Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China"},{"name":"College of Resource and Environment, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China"}]},{"given":"Chuanglin","family":"Fang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Regional Sustainable Development Modeling, Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China"}]},{"given":"Wenhui","family":"Kuang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Land Surface Pattern and Simulation, Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China"}]},{"given":"Fengyun","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Ecological and Environmental Sciences, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,8,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"49","DOI":"10.1016\/S0921-8181(00)00021-7","article-title":"The impact of land use\u2014Land cover changes due to urbanization on surface microclimate and hydrology: A satellite perspective","volume":"25","author":"Carlson","year":"2000","journal-title":"Glob.
