Reviewer 2 Report
the paper titled "Green Development Level Evaluation of Urban Engineering Construction in the Mid-Low Reaches of Yangtze River, China" provides an analysis of the status and efficiency of green development in urban engineering construction in the specified region. The adoption of comprehensive evaluation models and the super-efficiency slacks-based measure model contributes to the assessment of the development levels and factors influencing green development. The findings indicate an overall increase in both status and efficiency of green development, with visible changes in status and notable differences in efficiency. The paper also proposes countermeasures and suggestions for further enhancing the regional green development of urban engineering construction in China.
The paper provides valuable insights into the evaluation of green development in the specified region. However, there are a few areas that require improvement and clarification. Please address the following points:
Methodology: Provide a more detailed explanation of the comprehensive evaluation model and the super-efficiency slacks-based measure model. Include information on how these models were applied in the evaluation process and their suitability for assessing green development in urban engineering construction.
Data and Analysis: Describe the specific data sources utilized in the study and provide more information on the variables considered in the evaluation. This will enhance the transparency and replicability of the research. Additionally, elaborate on the statistical methods employed to analyze the data and draw conclusions from the results.
