Bulletin of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Chinese Version)

Urban spatial structure is an important part of the research on the regional system of the human-land relationship, and it is also an important starting point for the sustainable development of cities. How to scientifically understand the urban spatial structure in the new era is the basis for optimizing its regulation. This study briefly reviews the historical background of traditional urban spatial structure theory and points out the transformational turn of urban spatial structure in terms of organizational principles, organizational methods, optimization goals and elements through the analysis of technological revolution, policy, and socio-economic environment in the new era, and …


New Opportunities For Urban Science Research, Guangtao Wang, Fen Li, Xiang Liu Jul 2023

New Opportunities For Urban Science Research, Guangtao Wang, Fen Li, Xiang Liu

Bulletin of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Chinese Version)

Urban science is the study of urban problems from the viewpoint and by method of system science. At present, China’s urbanization rate has reached 65.22%. Urban development has entered a new period of quality improvement and structural adjustment, and the progress of information technology and the development of information industry have also brought new opportunities for urban science. After reviewing the theoretical basis of urban science put forward by Qian Xuesen, drawing on the cutting-edge trends of international urban science research, combined with the goal support, key challenges and application scenarios of China’s new smart city construction, the study puts …

Past Achievements And Future Strategies Of Eco-Environmental Construction In Mega Urban Agglomerations In Eastern China, Lina Tang, Ting Lan, Xiaoxu Xing, Tian Xie, Weifeng Li, Chuanglin Fang, Yanni Cao, Yaoyang Xu, Dingkai Chen, Lin Wang, Zhifeng Wu, Zhibang Xu, Weiqi Zhou

Bulletin of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Chinese Version)

Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, Yangtze River Delta, and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area are the three largest urban agglomerations in China, and have been increasingly becoming the core engines of China's economic growth. Nevertheless, rapid regional urbanization accompanying high-intensity human activities has also brought enormous social and environmental pressure in these urban agglomerations, posing a grand challenge to urban and regional sustainability. This study conducts a cross-urban agglomeration comparison of the ecological and environmental changes over the past two decades. Using a combination of remotely sensed data, in-situ monitoring data, and environmental statistic data, the changes in four dimensions are quantified, namely …

Typical Pathway To Carbon Neutrality For Urban Smart Energy Systems—Case Study Of Macao Special Administrative Region, Yonghua Song, Hongcai Zhang, Ge Chen Nov 2022

Typical Pathway To Carbon Neutrality For Urban Smart Energy Systems—Case Study Of Macao Special Administrative Region, Yonghua Song, Hongcai Zhang, Ge Chen

Bulletin of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Chinese Version)

China's ambitious goal "strive to peak carbon emissions before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060" not only shows China's responsible attitude towards climate change, but also aligns with the upgrade requirement of China's economy and industries. Since cities occupy a dominant position in China's population, energy consumption, and carbon emissions, they are the main battlefield for achieving national carbon neutrality. This study first analyzes the challenges and requirements that cities' energy systems facing in order to realize carbon neutrality. Then, it takes Macao as an example to analyze the characteristics of cities' energy consumption and carbon emissions. Finally, it …
