Abstract
This paper analyzes the sensitivity of cargo transported by ports contributes to regional economic development from inside of port industry making specific port transport cargo as its research objective. Firstly, membership relation between port transport cargo and port industry is clarified before analyzing forward connections effect of port entry cargo to regional economy and backward connections effect of port leaving cargo to regional economy based on input–output model in this paper. Since ripple effect of various cargoes to economy is completed in many years, Taylor Expansion is used to peel off the current contribution of port transport cargo to regional economic development. Finally, an empirical research is conducted with data from Fujian Province. Conclusions draw from this research can serve for decision department of government to diagnose economic operation by ports promptly.
