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 eco-environmental and geological problems caused by the unreasonable abstraction of groundwater can all be attributed to the degeneration and loss of groundwater function. The evaluation of groundwater function is the foundation of groundwater management. Groundwater system is dissipative structure system. On the basis of order degree and entropy of dissipative structure system, this paper establish a set of new and more adaptive evaluation index system and evaluation model of groundwater function, which are applied in the evaluation of groundwater function in Tianjin.

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.

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.

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.

    Comprehensive Evaluation of Social-Economic and Environmental Policies with Emphasize on Reclaimed Water Utilization to Effectively Achieve Sustainable Development: A Case Study in Tianjin, China Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba Nan XIANG※ Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba Feng XU Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba Takeshi MIZUNOYA Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba Yoshiro HIGANO 1. Introduction Water resources are one of the most important things for human existence and social development. Also, with the increase of economic and population in developing countries, water scarcity and pollution problems are becoming more and more prominent recently. Wastewater reuse has drawn increasing attention worldwide as an integral part of water resources management. Such a move is driven by two major forces: scarcity of clean water resources and heightened environmental concerns1. Reclaimed water reuse has been used in large municipalities in many parts of the world, especially in areas where the water resources are scare and population and economic growth is rapid 2. Tianjin is one of the typical areas in point. In 2009, only 2.01% of total water supply in Tianjin comes from reclaimed water reuse, the reclaimed water projects have just started. Reclaimed water reuse practice can be traced back to several centuries ago. And there are a large number of studies on waste water treatment from technological and engineering aspects. However, there is rather rare research on reclaimed water utilization modeling and prediction. In most of these studies, conclusions are derived from simple data analysis and foreign experiences 3.
