    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.

  • According to Framework Directive 96/62/EC, Preliminary Assessment As a Tool for Air Quality Monitoring Network Design in a Chinese City
    According to Framework Directive 96/62/EC, preliminary assessment as a tool for Air Quality Monitoring Network Design in a Chinese city I. Allegrini1, C. Paternò1, M. Biscotto1, W. Hong2, F. Liu2, Z. Yin2 & F. Costabile1 1Institute for Atmospheric Pollution, Italian National Research Council, Rome, Italy 2Environmental Monitoring Centre, Suzhou, P.R. China Abstract In the framework of the Sino-Italian Program in which the Italian Ministry of Environment and Territory is participating, an Air Quality Monitoring System in the City of Suzhou (China) was implemented by the Institute for Atmospheric Pollution of the Italian National Research Council (CNR-IIA). As stated in Framework Directive 96/62/EC, preliminary assessment of air quality is a very important step in the identification of sites for fixed monitoring stations. To that end, 100 saturation stations, equipped with passive samplers for sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, ozone, ammonia and BTX (benzene, toluene and xylene), were set up. The concentration values of these pollutants, coming from three campaigns carried out in Suzhou, were represented and explored by using the Arcview 8.2 software with Geostatistical Analyst and Spatial Analyst extensions. The interpolation was carried out using the two most important interpolation models (Inverse Distance Weighting and Ordinary Kriging). With reference to each campaign, pollution maps related to each interpolation model and to each pollutant were produced. Finally, a map with the definitive siting of the fixed monitoring stations was produced. Keywords: air quality monitoring system, preliminary assessment, pollutant distribution maps, passive samplers. Air Pollution XII, C. A.

L4S 0E9 Email: [email protected] Citation: Zhang D, 2019, Jiaanbieyuan New Courtyard-Garden Housing in Suzhou: Residents’ Experiences of the Redevelopment. Journal of Chinese Architecture and Urbanism, 1(1): 526. http://dx.doi.org/10.26689/jcau.v1i1.526 ABSTRACT Cultural vitality as the fourth pillar of sustainable development has been widely acknowledged, and vernacular architecture as a major part of a nation’s material culture has entered the cultural sustainability dialogue. This recognition demands that new housing design and development should honor a local or regional identity. This in-depth case study assesses the architectural, environmental, spatial, constructional, social, cultural, and behavioral aspects of the Jiaanbieyuan (“Excellent Peace Courtyard-Garden Housing Estate”) built in Suzhou, China, in 1998. The 500-unit Jiaanbieyuan is located close to two UNESCO World Cultural Heritage sites, the Canglang (“Surging Waves”) Pavilion and the Master-of- Nets Garden. It has attempted to recreate Suzhou’s traditional architecture and landscape architecture. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected through numerous research methods, including onsite surveys and interviews. The findings show the new housing forms do not promote social relations as effectively as the traditional housing of the past. Moreover, the communal Central Garden has functioned to some extent as a social and cultural activity space.

Received: 26 June 2019; Accepted: 3 September 2019; Published: 6 September 2019 Abstract: Ecological compensation is an effective means to adjust relationships among stakeholders in order to conserve and/or sustainably use ecosystem services. The current ecological compensation standards (ECS) do not well reflect the differences in ecological, social, and economic development. Thus, we took a typical urbanization area (the Suzhou–Wuxi–Changzhou region) in China as an example, because of its prominent contradiction between rapid socio-economic development and fragile ecosystem. Combined with the ecological, economic, and social conditions, the methods of ecosystem service value (ESV) evaluation, cluster analysis, and scenario analysis were used to propose an optimized spatial zoning method and optimal development scenario. Then, the ECS by different zones were determined by using ESV assessment, cost-benefit analysis, and contingent valuation method.

China) in 2003, with the aim to determine the rep- resentativeness of zones where to monitor air quality. 100 sites were selected to measure 15-days average concentrations of SO2,NOx,NO2,O3,NH3, Benzene, Toluene and Xylene in winter and summer. The distribution trend of NO and NO2, as well as the ratio of NO2/NOx was used to identify the heavy traffic polluted zones and design a network of monitoring sta- tions (macrositing). NO2/NOx ratios varied throughout the two selected seasons and from site to site clearly demonstrating the different extent and completeness of NO → NO2 oxidation processes in time and space. The exceedance frequencies of pollutants was used to design the type of monitoring equipment to be installed at each station (micrositing). An air quality monitoring network composed by 9 monitoring stations has been finally established in 2004 according to the result of this survey and is now currently running. Key Words: Air Pollution, Air Quality, Monitoring Network, NO2/NOx Ratio, Representa- tiveness emission factors (emission rates as a function of speed and 1.
