    查看更多>>摘要:The literature on urban vitality tends to focus on the built environment.This paper argues that some important processes in shaping vitality may be overlooked without examining the intensity and diversity of economic and human activities.Using newly de-veloped spatial big data and adopting the methods of multi-indicator measurement and spatial analysis methods,we analyzed the pattern of urban vitality in Chongqing,a provincial city in western China and,on this basis,evaluated the creation and maintenance of urban vi-tality from the economic and human activities perspective.Our findings indicate that the impacts of economic and human activities are positive and significant.Among the three intensity and diversity indicators,economic intensity and population density show an effect on urban vitality stronger than that of economic diversity.However,economic diversity has the strongest superposition or interactive effect,and is thus an important foundation dynamic.The positive effect of population density on urban vitality is largely a result of Chongqing's jobs-housing balance.The case of Chongqing highlights the importance of topographic features,historical inheritance,large-scale mi-gration,and cultural activities in shaping the distinctive vitality pattern of a city.This study contends that the creation and maintenance of urban vitality can not be fully explained without incorporating the impacts of economic and human activities.It contributes to a com-prehensive measurement of urban vitality and enriches its connotations.

    查看更多>>摘要:As a typical region with high water demand for agricultural production,understanding the spatiotemporal surface water changes in Northeast China is critical for water resources management and sustainable development.However,the long-term variation characteristics of surface water of different water body types in Northeast China remain rarely explored.This study investigated how surface water bodies of different types(e.g.,lake,reservoir,river,coastal aquaculture,marsh wetland,ephemeral water)changed during 1999-2020 in Northeast China based on various remote sensing-based datasets.The results showed that surface water in Northeast China grew dramatically in the past two decades,with an equivalent area increasing from 24 394 km2 in 1999 to 34 595 km2 in 2020.The surge of ephemeral water is the primary driver of surface water expansion,which could ascribe to shifted precipitation pattern.Marsh wetlands,rivers,and reservoirs experienced a similar trend,with an approximate 20%increase at the interdecadal scale.By con-trast,coastal aquacultures and natural lakes remain relatively stable.This study is expected to provide a more comprehensive investiga-tion of the surface water variability in Northeast China and has important practical significance for the scientific management of differ-ent types of surface water.

    查看更多>>摘要:Huaihe River Basin(HRB)is located in China's north-south climatic transition zone,which is very sensitive to global cli-mate change.Based on the daily maximum temperature,minimum temperature,and precipitation data of 40 meteorological stations and nine monthly large-scale ocean-atmospheric circulation indices data during 1959-2019,we present an assessment of the spatial and tem-poral variations of extreme temperature and precipitation events in the HRB using nine extreme climate indices,and analyze the telecon-nection relationship between extreme climate indices and large-scale ocean-atmospheric circulation indices.The results show that warm extreme indices show a significant(P<0.05)increasing trend,while cold extreme indices(except for cold spell duration)and diurnal temperature range(DTR)show a significant decreasing trend.Furthermore,all extreme temperature indices show significant mutations during 1959-2019.Spatially,a stronger warming trend occurs in eastern HRB than western HRB,while maximum 5-d precipitation(Rx5day)and rainstorm days(R25)show an increasing trend in the southern,central,and northwestern regions of HRB.Arctic oscilla-tion(AO),Atlantic multidecadal oscillation(AMO),and East Atlantic/Westem Russia(EA/WR)have a stronger correlation with ex-treme climate indices compared to other circulation indices.AO and AMO(EA/WR)exhibit a significant(P<0.05)negative(positive)correlation with frost days and diurnal temperature range.Extreme warm events are strongly correlated with the variability of AMO and EA/WR in most parts of HRB,while extreme cold events are closely related to the variability of AO and AMO in eastern HRB.In con-trast,AMO,AO,and EA/WR show limited impacts on extreme precipitation events in most parts of HRB.

    查看更多>>摘要:Under the influence of anthropogenic and climate change,the problems caused by urban heat island(UHI)has become in-creasingly prominent.In order to promote urban sustainable development and improve the quality of human settlements,it is significant for exploring the evolution characteristics of urban thermal environment and analyzing its driving forces.Taking the Landsat series im-ages as the basic data sources,the winter land surface temperature(LST)of the rapid urbanization area of Fuzhou City in China was quantitatively retrieved from 2001 to 2021.Combing comprehensively the standard deviation ellipse model,profile analysis and GeoDe-tector model,the spatio-temporal evolution characteristics and influencing factors of the winter urban thermal environment were system-atically analyzed.The results showed that the winter LST presented an increasing trend in the study area during 2001-2021,and the winter LST of the central urban regions was significantly higher than the suburbs.There was a strong UHI effect from 2001 to 2021 with an expansion trend from the central urban regions to the suburbs and coastal areas in space scale.The LST of green lands and wet-lands are significantly lower than croplands,artificial surface and unvegetated lands.Vegetation and water bodies had a significant mit-igation effect on UHI,especially in the micro-scale.The winter UHI had been jointly driven by the underlying surface and socio-eco-nomic factors in a nonlinear or two-factor interactive enhancement mode,and socio-economic factors had played a leading role.This re-search could provide data support and decision-making references for rationally planning urban layout and promoting sustainable urban development.
