  • Deciphering the Spatial Structures of City Networks in the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait Through the Lens of Functional and Innovation Networks
    sustainability Article Deciphering the Spatial Structures of City Networks in the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait through the Lens of Functional and Innovation Networks Yan Ma * and Feng Xue School of Architecture and Urban-Rural Planning, Fuzhou University, Fuzhou 350108, Fujian, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 April 2019; Accepted: 21 May 2019; Published: 24 May 2019 Abstract: Globalization and the spread of information have made city networks more complex. The existing research on city network structures has usually focused on discussions of regional integration. With the development of interconnections among cities, however, the characterization of city network structures on a regional scale is limited in the ability to capture a network’s complexity. To improve this characterization, this study focused on network structures at both regional and local scales. Through the lens of function and innovation, we characterized the city network structure of the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait through a social network analysis and a Fast Unfolding Community Detection algorithm. We found a significant imbalance in the innovation cooperation among cities in the region. When considering people flow, a multilevel spatial network structure had taken shape. Among cities with strong centrality, Xiamen, Fuzhou, and Whenzhou had a significant spillover effect, which meant the region was depolarizing. Quanzhou and Ganzhou had a significant siphon effect, which was unsustainable. Generally, urbanization in small and midsize cities was common. These findings provide support for government policy making. Keywords: city network; spatial organization; people flows; innovation network 1.

  • Supersized Cities China's 13 Megalopolises
    TM Supersized cities China’s 13 megalopolises A report from the Economist Intelligence Unit www.eiu.com Supersized cities China’s 13 megalopolises China will see its number of megalopolises grow from three in 2000 to 13 in 2020. We analyse their varying stages of demographic development and the implications their expansion will have for several core sectors. The rise and decline of great cities past was largely based on their ability to draw the ambitious and the restless from other places. China’s cities are on the rise. Their growth has been fuelled both by the large-scale internal migration of those seeking better lives and by government initiatives encouraging the expansion of urban areas. The government hopes that the swelling urban populace will spend more in a more highly concentrated retail environment, thereby helping to rebalance the Chinese economy towards private consumption. Progress has been rapid. The country’s urbanisation rate surpassed 50% for the first time in 2011, up from a little over one-third just ten years earlier. Even though the growth of China’s total population will soon slow to a near standstill, the urban population is expected to continue expanding for at least another decade. China’s cities will continue to grow. Some cities have grown more rapidly than others. The metropolitan population of the southern city of Shenzhen, China’s poster child for the liberal economic reforms of the past 30 years, has nearly doubled since 2000. However, development has also spread through more of the country, and today the fastest-growing cities are no longer all on the eastern seaboard.

Automatic fare collection (AFC) systems have been widely used all around the world which record rich data resources for researchers mining the passenger behavior and operation estimation. However, most transit systems are open systems for which only boarding information is recorded but the alighting information is missing. Because of the lack of trip information, validation of utility functions for passenger choices is difficult. To fill the research gaps, this study uses the AFC data from Beijing metro, which is a closed system and records both boarding information and alighting information. To estimate a more reasonable utility function for choice modeling, the study uses the trip chaining method to infer the actual destination of the trip. Based on the land use and passenger flow pattern, applying k-means clustering method, stations are classified into 7 categories.

  • Organizing Bicycle Traffic in Moscow to Reduce Air Pollutant Concentrations
    E3S Web of Conferences 164, 04007 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf /202016404007 TPACEE-2019 Organizing bicycle traffic in Moscow to reduce air pollutant concentrations Igor Pryadko1,* 1 Moscow State University of Civil Engineering, 129337, 26 Yaroslavskoye sh., Moscow, Russia Abstract. The objective of this article is to assess the prospects for development of cycling as a mode of transport in major cities in Russia and worldwide. Towards this end, the author addresses bicycle traffic organization patterns in the cities of Europe, South Eastern Asia and South America. The methods, employed in this research project, include sociological data collection, or the polling of urban residents (residents of the Russian capital), the retrospective analysis of sources, including news articles, the comparative historical method and forecasting. In the article, the impact produced on the urban environment, namely, on the surface layers of the urban atmosphere, by the motor traffic is compared with the one produced by the bicycle traffic. The mission of this research project is to analyze development of cycling network routes, parking lots, and accompanying small architectural forms in Moscow. The author employs methods of environmental monitoring to assess the impact produced by the motor transport on the environmental situation in the city. The conclusion is that there is a need to develop the urban walking infrastructure, to expand the urban cycling network, and to convert to the biosphere compatible urban transport. 1 Introduction More often than not urban planners and architects face the challenge of limiting pollutant emissions caused by human economic activities and designing a clean and biosphere compatible urban space.

China implemented strict air pollution control policies since 11 Five Year Plan (FYP).

In this study, we aimed to assess the effects of air pollution control policies from 2005 to 2017 on PM2.5 from the view of satellite remote sensing. We used the satellite derived PM2.5 of 2005-2013 from one of our previous studies. For the data of 2014-2017, we developed a two-stage statistical model to retrieve satellite PM2.5 data using the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Collection 6 aerosol optical depth 10 (AOD), assimilated meteorology, and land use data.

Comments may be directed to the authors. REGULATORY POLICY PROGRAM The Regulatory Policy Program at the Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government serves as a catalyst and clearinghouse for the study of regulation across Harvard University. The program's objectives are to cross-pollinate research, spark new lines of inquiry, and increase the connection between theory and practice. Through seminars and symposia, working papers, and new media, RPP explores themes that cut across regulation in its various domains: market failures and the public policy case for government regulation; the efficacy and efficiency of various regulatory instruments; and the most effective ways to foster transparent and participatory regulatory processes. The views expressed in this paper are those of the authors and do not imply endorsement by the Regulatory Policy Program, the Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government, Harvard Kennedy School, or Harvard University.

In theory, the industrial agglomeration is a double-edged sword as there are both positive and negative externalities. China’s cities, with great disparities on degrees of the industrial agglomeration, often face different energy and carbon dioxide emission problems, which raise the question whether the industrial agglomeration promotes or inhibits energy efficiency and carbon dioxide emission. )is paper explored the effects of the industrial agglomeration on carbon efficiency in China. Spatial econometric methods were implemented using panel data (2007–2016) of 285 cities above the prefecture level. )e results revealed that industrial agglomerations have significant impacts on the urban carbon efficiency with significant spatial spillover effects. )e agglomerations of the manufacturing and high-end productive service industries take positive effects on carbon efficiency while the low-end productive and living service industries take negative effects.
