Monetary compensation or ecological restoration? A tripartite evolutionary game analysis of marine ecological damage governance in China
Marine ecological damage compensation (MEDC) presents complex governance challenges in China, demanding effective strategies for balancing stakeholder interests. This study employs a tripartite evolutionary game model—involving the central government, local governments, and sea-using enterprises—to analyze the dynamics of monetary and ecological restoration compensation. Findings reveal that differentiated penalties and calibrated compensation standards are crucial for promoting compliance and responsibility. Ultimately, the optimal compensation mode depends on restoration costs, with ecological restoration favored when costs are high.
