Abstract

Spatial gravity model has been used and indicators, namely, potential development capacity and acceleration, agglomeration force and acceleration, ability of receiving radiation and traction acceleration of Service Industry have been created, based on the Services' data of 21 prefecture-level city from year 2001, 2005, 2008, 2012 in Guangdong province, to discover municipal Services' agglomeration level, "quality", spatial links and space-time evolution process of spatial framework. Municipal Services' spatial connection diagrams have been made based on the regional strength of the interaction, and with comparison a significant coupling relationship has been proved among potential development capacity, acceleration and spatial links, and the tightness of spatial connection of regional service industry does play a significant role in promoting the space-time evolution of Services' spatial structure, which means with Services' spatial links turning gradually closer, the spatial structure of Services displays more complexity, transforming from original single-core structure to multi-core structure, and lastly being stable at complex network structure, regional services integration framework begins to emerge. Moreover, according to data of spatial links of Services, agglomeration level and level of economic openness from the four time section, a corresponding spatial distribution figure has been drawn by R-language to explore their relationship in spatial fitting. It shows that they are perfectly fitting in spatial distribution, and all of them concentrate their distribution in the Pearl River Delta region, which indicates that economic openness is the one significant driving factor enhancing the spatial links of Services and agglomeration level, and agglomeration level improving and lingks going closer always make contributions to an accelerated trans-regional and cross-border circulation of population, information, capital and other resources, which indirectly enhance regional economic openness.
