High value regions were all distributed in the eastern coast region of China and the cluster regions with high value were distributed in Yangtze Delta Region and areas surrounding Bo Sea. Both hot spot and sub-hot regions were mainly distributed in the eastern coast region of China, while the vast majority of regions in the central and western China were cold spot or sub-cold regions. The distribution pattern of hot spot regions mainly distributed in the Yangtze Delta Region and areas surrounding Bo Sea, remained stable.
