Since the Reform and Opening- up Policy in 1978, major cities in China have experienced significant polycentric transition manifested by their new spatial policy framework and reshaped spatial structure. The polycentric transformation has provoked academics’ interests on structural and performance analysis in quantitative ways recently. However, little research investigates the nature of (re)formation and implementation of polycentric development policies in Chinese cities from a processual and critical perspective. -

The construction of office buildings is currently When we published our first World Winning Cities profile in 2006, dominated by domestic developers who almost exclusively sell them Tianjin was a city with a strong but generic industrial base, a strata title. As a result, the leading office towers have maintained decent port and some tired real estate stock. Times have certainly occupancy rates in excess of 90% and MNCs have few options for changed, although international real estate investors have been slow expansion. to get the message.

As a result, the land price in an urban area is not only affected by the city’s own factors, but also by its interaction with nearby cities. Understanding the characteristics, types, and patterns of urban interaction is of critical importance in regulating the land market and promoting coordinated regional development. In this study, we integrated a gravity model with an improved Voronoi diagram model to investigate the gravitational characteristics, types of action, gravitational patterns, and problems of land market development in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration region based on social, economic, transportation, and comprehensive land-price data from 2017. The results showed that the gravitational value of land prices for Beijing, Tianjin, Langfang, and Tangshan cities (11.24–63.35) is significantly higher than that for other cities (0–6.09). The gravitational structures are closely connected for cities around Beijing and Tianjin, but loosely connected for peripheral cities. -

NON-LEGACY PROTECTION AND DEVELOPMENT AND degree of cultural self-confidence and without the prosperity of UTILIZATION OF RURAL TOURISM culture, there would be no great rejuvenation of the Chinese China's tourism development and intangible cultural heritage nation. The tourism utilization of intangible cultural heritage has (hereinafter referred to as non-legacy) complement each other exerted the advantages of both tourism industry and cultural industry, which helps to establish cultural self-confidence and in practice. The core competitiveness of tourism destinations cultural identity. Based on this, this study takes Tianjin comes from the difference and regionality of tourism Yangliuqing Town as the research object, which is to solve the destinations, while the non-legacy preserves the regionality of problem that its rich regional culture and many cultural relics tourism destinations. And the unique quality has become an cannot be rationally utilized. Using the field investigation method important factor to attract tourists[1].

A new mathematical expression of water shortage loss was proposed in order to describe the random uncertainty and economic attributes of water resources. Then, Gumbel copula with a new method of parameter estimation was introduced to model the joint probabilistic characteristics for water supply and water use in situations when sufBcient data is unavailable. The new parameter estimation method requires only the minimum and maximum values of two variables. The improved Gumbel copula was proved to be reliable based on the RMSEs (root mean square error) and AICs (Akaike information criterion), statis- tical tests and upper tail dependence tests. The potential water shortage losses for all the districts of Tianjin were predicated. -

To reduce the effects of severe pollution, early warning and emission reduction measures should be executed prior to these haze episodes. In this study, the efficacy of emission reduction procedures during severe pollution episodes was evaluated using the Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with chemistry (WRF-Chem). To provide feedback and optimize emergency emission reduction plans, a pollution episode that occurred during the period of December 20–26, 2015, which was characterized by a high warning level, long warning period, and integrated pollution process, was selected as a case study to determine the influence of meteorological conditions and the effects of mitigation measures on heavy haze pollution episodes. Adverse meteorological conditions were found to increase PM2.5 concentrations by approximately 34% during the pollution episode. -
