  • Spatiotemporal Evolution of Lakes Under Rapid Urbanization: a Case Study in Wuhan, China
    water Article Spatiotemporal Evolution of Lakes under Rapid Urbanization: A Case Study in Wuhan, China Chao Wen 1, Qingming Zhan 1,* , De Zhan 2, Huang Zhao 2 and Chen Yang 3 1 School of Urban Design, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China; [email protected] 2 China Construction Third Bureau Green Industry Investment Co., Ltd., Wuhan 430072, China; [email protected] (D.Z.); [email protected] (H.Z.) 3 College of Urban and Environmental Sciences, Peking University, Beijing 100871, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-139-956-686-39 Abstract: The impact of urbanization on lakes in the urban context has aroused continuous attention from the public. However, the long-term evolution of lakes in a certain megacity and the heterogeneity of the spatial relationship between related influencing factors and lake changes are rarely discussed. The evolution of 58 lakes in Wuhan, China from 1990 to 2019 was analyzed from three aspects of lake area, lake landscape, and lakefront ecology, respectively. The Multi-Scale Geographic Weighted Regression model (MGWR) was then used to analyze the impact of related influencing factors on lake area change. The investigation found that the total area of 58 lakes decreased by 15.3%. A worsening trend was found regarding lake landscape with the five landscape indexes of lakes dropping; in contrast, lakefront ecology saw a gradual recovery with variations in the remote sensing ecological index (RSEI) in the lakefront area. The MGWR regression results showed that, on the whole, the increase in Gross Domestic Product (GDP), RSEI in the lakefront area, precipitation, and humidity Citation: Wen, C.; Zhan, Q.; Zhan, contributed to lake restoration.

  • Seasonal Succession of Bacterial Communities in Three Eutrophic Freshwater Lakes
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Case Report Seasonal Succession of Bacterial Communities in Three Eutrophic Freshwater Lakes Bin Ji, Cheng Liu, Jiechao Liang and Jian Wang * Department of Water and Wastewater Engineering, Wuhan University of Science and Technology, Wuhan 430065, China; [email protected] (B.J.); [email protected] (C.L.); [email protected] (J.L.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-27-68893616 Abstract: Urban freshwater lakes play an indispensable role in maintaining the urban environment and are suffering great threats of eutrophication. Until now, little has been known about the seasonal bacterial communities of the surface water of adjacent freshwater urban lakes. This study reported the bacterial communities of three adjacent freshwater lakes (i.e., Tangxun Lake, Yezhi Lake and Nan Lake) during the alternation of seasons. Nan Lake had the best water quality among the three lakes as reflected by the bacterial eutrophic index (BEI), bacterial indicator (Luteolibacter) and functional prediction analysis. It was found that Alphaproteobacteria had the lowest abundance in summer and the highest abundance in winter. Bacteroidetes had the lowest abundance in winter, while Planctomycetes had the highest abundance in summer. N/P ratio appeared to have some relationships with eutrophication. Tangxun Lake and Nan Lake with higher average N/P ratios (e.g., N/P = 20) tended to have a higher BEI in summer at a water temperature of 27 ◦C, while Yezhi Lake with a relatively lower average N/P ratio (e.g., N/P = 14) tended to have a higher BEI in spring and autumn at a water temperature of 9–20 ◦C.

  • Planning Strategy and Practice of Low-Carbon City Construction , 46 Th ISOCARP Congress 2010
    Zhang Wentong, Planning Strategy and Practice of Low-carbon City Construction , 46 th ISOCARP Congress 2010 Planning Strategy and Practice of Low-carbon City Construction Development in Wuhan, China Zhang Wentong Yidong Hu I. Exploration on Planning of Low-carbon City Construction under the Global Context The concept of low-carbon is proposed in the context of responding to global climate change and advocating reducing the discharge of greenhouse gases in human’s production activities. While in the urban area, the low-carbon city is evolved gradually from the concept of ecological city, and these two can go hand in hand. The connotation of low-carbon city has also changed from the environment subject majoring in reducing carbon emission to a comprehensive subject including society, culture, economy and environment. Low-carbon city has become a macro-system synthesizing low-carbon technology, low-carbon production & consumption mode and mode of operation of low-carbon city. At last it will be amplified to the entire level of ecological city. The promotion of low-carbon city construction has a profound background of times and practical significance. Just as Professor Yu Li from Cardiff University of Great Britain has summed up, at least there are reasons from three aspects for the promotion of low-carbon city construction: firstly, reduce the emission of carbon through the building of ecological cities and return to a living style with the harmonious development between man and the nature; secondly, different countries hope to obtain a leading position in innovation through exploration on ecological city technology, idea and development mode and to lead the construction of sustainable city of the next generation; thirdly, to resolve the main problems in the country and local areas as well as the problem of “global warming”.

  • Evaluation of the Fairness of Urban Lakes' Distribution Based On
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article Evaluation of the Fairness of Urban Lakes’ Distribution Based on Spatialization of Population Data: A Case Study of Wuhan Urban Development Zone Jing Wu *, Shen Yang y and Xu Zhang y School of Urban Design, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China; [email protected] (S.Y.); [email protected] (X.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected] These authors contributed equally to the research. y Received: 14 November 2019; Accepted: 4 December 2019; Published: 8 December 2019 Abstract: Lake reclamation for urban construction has caused serious damage to lakes in cities undergoing rapid urbanization. This process affects urban ecological environment and leads to inconsistent urban expansion, population surge, and uneven distribution of urban lakes. This study measured the fairness of urban lakes’ distribution and explored the spatial matching relationship between service supply and user group demand. The interpretation and analysis of Wuhan’s remote sensing images, population, administrative area, traffic network, and other data in 2018 were used as the basis. Specifically, the spatial distribution pattern and fairness of lakes’ distribution in Wuhan urban development zone were investigated. This study establishes a geographic weighted regression (GWR) model of land cover types and population data based on a spatialization method of population data based on land use, and uses population spatial data and network accessibility analysis results to evaluate lake service levels in the study area. Macroscopically, the correlation analysis of sequence variables and Gini coefficient analysis method are used to measure the fairness of the Wuhan lake distribution problem and equilibrium degree, and the location entropy analysis is used to quantitatively analyze the fairness of lakes and Wuhan streets from the perspective of supply and demand location entropy.
