What is geography? From coronavirus disease 2019 to Bei Dou Systems

To introduce what geography is and the three laws of geography to high school students.

A spatial database of CO₂ emissions, urban form fragmentation and city-scale effect related impact factors for the low carbon urban system in Jinjiang city, China

This paper presented the spatial database collected in 2013 for mitigating the urban carbon emissions of Jinjiang city, China. The database included the high-resolution CO₂ emissions gridded maps, urban form fragmentation evaluation maps, and …

More fragmentized urban form more CO₂ emissions? A comprehensive relationship from the combination analysis across different scales

The “Scale effect” has always been the hot topic in landscape ecology research. Although, there are many studies on the driving force of urban environmental problems by using landscape metrics. Most studies are carried out in regional, continental and global scales. However, in this study, we explored the relationship between the urban form fragmentation and CO₂ emissions in the city scale from the perspective of dual resolution sizes and summarized the research conclusions that can be used in urban internal management based on the analysis results of small towns.

Creating a Carbon Source and Sink Map by Coupling an Ecological Process Model with an Emission Inventory to Study a Carbon Balance

Cities are typical sources of carbon and a focus of climate-change mitigation. Although there is great potential for reducing emissions in cities, constructing low-carbon emission cities under the carbon-emission reduction target of the 2016 Paris …

A GIS-based high spatial resolution assessment of large-scale PV generation potential in China

The achievement of temperature control target requires a low carbon transition of global energy structure. While China is actively promoting the implementation of large-scale PV generation technology, there is still a lack of scientific knowledge of …

Determining the Mechanisms that Influence the Surface Temperature of Urban Forest Canopies by Combining Remote Sensing Methods, Ground Observations, and Spatial Statistical Models

The spatiotemporal distribution pattern of the surface temperatures of urban forest canopies (STUFC) is influenced by many environmental factors, and the identification of interactions between these factors can improve simulations and predictions of …

High-Resolution Mapping of Direct CO₂ Emissions and Uncertainties at the Urban Scale

To introduce our study on gridded CO₂ emissions at the urban scale and the quantification of the uncertainties.

High-resolution mapping of direct CO₂ emissions and uncertainties at the urban scale

Mapping direct carbon emissions at high-resolution in urban environments could help in the development of measures to mitigate carbon emissions through optimizing the layout of inner structures. It requires the use of a mapping method combining the …

Individual and Interactive Influences of Anthropogenic and Ecological Factors on Forest PM2.5 Concentrations at an Urban Scale

Integration of Landsat images and multisource data using spatial statistical analysis and geographical detector models can reveal the individual and interactive influences of anthropogenic activities and ecological factors on concentrations of …

Landscape-Scale Simulation Analysis of Waterlogging and Sponge City Planning for a Central Urban Area in Fuzhou City, China

We want to know how the pattern of grassland and water influence the hydrological process of cities.
