Accurate assessments of the historical and current status of eco-environmental quality (EEQ) are essential for governments to have a comprehensive understanding of regional ecological conditions, formulate scientific policies, and achieve the United …
Optimizing urban morphology can help city managers deploy internal carbon reduction strategies. However, due to the numerous factors that influence urban carbon emissions and the complex paths of their effects, existing research findings are diverse …
The influence of urban spatial form on the environment is complex and lengthy. The spatial analysis for the urban form and residential-related CO$_2$ emissions at the city scale is challenging due to the lack of extensive urban form data and …
Rapid urbanization generates substantial demand, use, and demolition waste of construction materials. However, the existing top-down or bottom-up frameworks combining material flow analysis (MFA) and geographic information system (GIS) tend to …
High-resolution mapping of steel resources accumulated above ground (referred to as steel stocks) is critical for exploring urban mining and circular economy opportunities. Prior studies have attempted to approximate steel stocks using nighttime …
Cities play an essential role in low-carbon development. However, Estimating CO$_2$ emissions at the urban scale, including both un-gridded (i.e., administrative unit maps) and gridded maps, cannot avoid the propagation of uncertainties from input to result, which highlights the importance of being aware of uncertainty estimation, especially in gridded maps due to its implications for the precision mitigation of CO$_2$ emissions. We proposed an analytic workflow to analyze the propagated uncertainties caused by the gridded model and the input for gridded CO$_2$ emission maps.
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 $CO_2$ emissions gridded maps, urban form fragmentation evaluation maps, and …
