However, the measurement and analysis of UILU efficiency and intensification are not accurate and in-depth enough. The study of UILU efficiency loss and intensification potential and their relationship is still lacking, and the application of parametric methods with clearer causal mechanisms is insufficient. This paper argued that the intensification potential of UILU could be defined as the amount of saved land or output growth resulting from reduced efficiency loss of UILU. Accordingly, we constructed quantitative models for measuring and evaluating the intensification potential of UILU, using the stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) method to calculate efficiency loss in three major urban agglomerations (38 cities) in China. Our results revealed a large scale and an expanding trend in the efficiency loss and intensification potential of UILU in three major urban agglomerations in China. From 2003 to 2016, the annual efficiency loss of UILU was 31.56%, the annual land-saving potential was 979.98 km2, and the annual output growth potential was 8775.23 billion Yuan (referring to the constant price for 2003).

  • Remote Sensing Analysis of the Status of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal
    REMOTE SENSING ANALYSIS OF THE STATUS OF THE BEIJING-HANGZHOU GRAND CANAL B. Deng H. Guo , C. Wang , Y. Nie, The Institute of Remote Sensing Applications, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China - [email protected] Commission VI, WG V/2 KEY WORDS: Image interpretation, Image understanding, Feature detection, Archaeology ABSTRACT: Remote sensing began with the use of aerial photography and is acknowledged as a valuable tool for viewing, analyzing, characterizing, and making decisions about our environment. The Grand Canal of China is the longest ancient canal in the world and recently approved as the Key National Relics-preservation Unit. In our work multi-source and multi-temporal remote sensing data, including the aerial photographs taken half a century ago and the recently acquired SPOT5 multispectral images and the RADARSAT-1 images are collected. Through a comparative and complementary analysis of the data sets, some findings are given. The general characteristics of the canal course and the canal cities are also described, which provides important information for the making plans of the Grand Canal preservation. 1. INTRODUCTION can provide radar images at the spatial resolution of 1 meter. The fourth advantage is the high spectral resolution. Now the Remote sensing, in the broadest sense, is the short or large-scale hyperspectral sensor can acquire image at hundreds of channels acquisition of information of an object or phenomenon, by the simultaneously, which can grasp the small changes of use of either recording or real-time sensing device(s) that is not reflectance and make possible the discrimination of some in physical or intimate contact with the object (such as by way targets.

    Embargoed until: 09:30 CET Paris Time – 18 March 2021 Trends in China Facts from the Renewables in Cities 2021 Global Status Report Key Renewable Energy Takeaways in 2020 from China • China is the greatest market in the world for solar PV1, with many of these developments taking place in urban areas and helping to decarbonise energy use in buildings; however, further efforts are needed to increase the share of renewables across sectors, including heating and cooling, but also power – especially in light of the expansion of e-mobility2. • The electrification of all transport modes has been pioneered in Chinese cities; they are visibly committed to the national EV ambition, providing complementary municipal-level subsidies (in addition to national incentives) for battery electric and fuel cell electric vehicles. • China is the second-largest producer of district heating (DH) in the world, and although these systems rely almost entirely on fossil fuels, some cities have been increasing solar thermal and geothermal heating capacity and use in their DH networks. Brand new data shows • Only 25 cities had renewable energy targets and/or policies from a global total of over 1,300 cities). This covers 321 million people, 38% of the urban population in China • On a global scale, Chinese cities are lagging behind on setting net-zero3 targets: some notable exceptions exist: 6 cities were developing net-zero targets in 2020, and Dalian set a target to achieve net-zero by 2050. Rizhao has had a target for climate neutrality by 2050 since 2008.

    6. Jing-Jin-Ji Region, People’s Republic of China Michael Lindfield, Xueyao Duan and Aijun Qiu 6.1 INTRODUCTION The Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei Region, known as the Jing-Jin-Ji Region (JJJR), is one of the most important political, economic and cultural areas in China. The Chinese government has recognized the need for improved management and development of the region and has made it a priority to integrate all the cities in the Bohai Bay rim and foster its economic development. This economy is China’s third economic growth engine, alongside the Pearl River and Yangtze River Deltas. Jing-Jin-Ji was the heart of the old industrial centres of China and has traditionally been involved in heavy industries and manufacturing. Over recent years, the region has developed significant clusters of newer industries in the automotive, electronics, petrochemical, software and aircraft sectors. Tourism is a major industry for Beijing. However, the region is experiencing many growth management problems, undermining its competitiveness, management, and sustainable development. It has not benefited as much from the more integrated approaches to development that were used in the older-established Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta regions, where the results of the reforms that have taken place in China since Deng Xiaoping have been nothing less than extraordinary. The Jing-Jin-Ji Region covers the municipalities of Beijing and Tianjin and Hebei province (including 11 prefecture cities in Hebei). Beijing and Tianjin are integrated geographically with Hebei province. In 2012, the total population of the Jing-Jin-Ji Region was 107.7 million.
