Abstract:Based on the panel data of 26 prefecture-level cities in Zhejiang and Anhui provinces from 2000 to 2019, this paper uses the synthetic control method to quantitatively analyze the overall and structural impacts of the three-round horizontal ecological compensation pilots’ policy on the Xin'an River basin on its water environmental benefits. The results showed that: (1) there existed temporal heterogeneity in policy effects. The first and second rounds of policy pilots significantly improved the overall water environment of the Xin'an River Basin, while the third round of pilots had a negative impact on the upstream water environment. (2) there existed spatial heterogeneity in policy effects. The horizontal ecological compensation policy of the river basin increased the biodiversity value of the downstream by an average of 6.8 million yuan, but reduced the biodiversity value of the upstream by an average of 1.5 million yuan. (3) there existed structural heterogeneity in policy effects. Structural decomposition of water environmental benefits showed that the horizontal ecological compensation policy increased the value of water purification capacity in the Xin'an River Basin by an average of 3.1874 billion yuan, but reduced the value of its product supply by an average of 1.3402 billion yuan. (4) there existed expected benefits in policy effects. The effect of the horizontal ecological compensation policy has appeared two years ahead the official implementation of the policy.
