Carbon emissions and decoupling effects in Suzhou City's agricultural"production-living-ecological"spaces
Based on the Tapio model and the carbon emission coefficient method,this study calcu-lates and analyzes the agricultural carbon emissions in Suzhou City from 2011 to 2022,dividing them into three spatial categories:production,living and ecological spaces.The research shows that the overall carbon emissions in Suzhou City have exhibited fluctuating growth,with the highest an-nual average emissions.In Suzhou's"production-living-ecological"spaces,carbon emissions from the production space have shown slow growth,with livestock farming.In 2017,carbon emissions from the living space surpass those of the production space and have continued to increase,primari-ly driven by rural food consumption and electricity and water usage.The decoupling state between carbon emissions and economic development has experienced a shift from weak decoupling to ex-pansive negative decoupling to strong decoupling.The year-on-year growth rate of agricultural car-bon emissions has shown a fluctuating decline,while the agricultural economic development in Suzhou City has maintained steady growth.
