The results indicate that the area of urban land use in China had been increasing since 1952,showing an inversed pyramid structure,i.e.,the direct<the indirect<the induced. Specifically,Chinese urban land use has changed from concentrated distribution in Northwest China to balanced spatial distribution,and the eastern coastal area is under great pressure. Moreover,the northeastern region has moved into the induced dominant stage,while the western region remains at the indirect dominant stage. Finally,it is proposed that in order to guarantee the future demand of urban land use in China,ensuring the induced land use in the eastern region should be taken as a priority goal of Chinese developing policy.展开更多

Although this effect is undeniable, the extent of its impact is a matter of controversy. The results obtained in this study show both the nature of the phenomenon and its considerable magnitude. Failure to take this process into account might seriously bias any analysis of thermal evolution, the cornerstone of the climate change hypothesis.展开更多

Taking 74 cities that have implemented the new Ambient Air Quality Standards （GB3095- 2012） since 2013 as examples, using statistical and ArcGIS spatial analysis method, the multi-scale temporal and spatial variations characteristics and the impact of social and economic factors on urban air quality variations, are analyzed in this paper. The main research conclusions are as follows：（1） Air quality in Chinese cities shows very significant seasonal variations, with higher air quality in summer and autumn, and lower air quality in spring and winter; （2） Seen from a daily pollution perspective, air pollution is very serious and will tend to be more serious in the future; （3） Seen from an hourly variation perspective, urban air quality is time coupled with social production and urban living; （4） The overall spatial pattern of urban air quality is high in the east and north and low in the west and south, but with an obvious trend towards regional integration. （5） Cities in different regions have different factors that cause air quality variations. In general, urbanization level and energy consumption per GDP are the common factors.展开更多
