Abstract

The high coupling of regional poverty and ecological environment degradation, natural disasters is the important reason for the unsustainable development of poverty-stricken areas .It has practical significance to correctly understand the interactions between the regional poverty, ecological environment and natural disasters, research the coupled relationship of the three.This paper chooses the vulnerability of ecological environment, natural disasters hazard and regional poverty indicators that are based on the ecological environment features and their results, the main types of natural disaster and their harm, regional economy and social welfare., etc. The vulnerability ecological environment, natural disasters harm degree and regional poverty degree are obtained in countiesthrough spatial interpolation, spatial overlay and comprehensive evaluation process. And Then four types and thirty classes are divided by using coupling analysis method and coupling relationship judgment standard .Finally it is conclude that the risk class with high fragility, harmfulness and poverty degree of ecological environment, natural disasters and regional economy in Inner Mongolia occupy dominant position, and the relationship that the ecological environment, natural disasters and the regional poverty are not harmonious in about 71% of the counties and cities and there are differences between the coupling degree and the coupling type in different geographical areas.
