Examining the impacts of socioeconomic factors, urban form, and transportation networks on CO2 emissions in China’s megacities
文摘
The impact of socioeconomic factors, urban form, and transportation networks on CO2 emissions is investigated. An extended STRIPAT model is used, taking the period 1990–2010. Socioeconomic factors correlates significantly with CO2 emissions. Pursuing compact urban development patterns would help to reduce CO2 emissions. Improving the coupling degree of urban spatial structure and traffic organization can reduce CO2 emissions.
