The associations between NO2-related health burden and regional developments in China
The related health burden was calculated by using the surface NO2 data from remote sensing at 0.1 degree during 2007～2020.The relationships between regional developments and health burden were explored using a random effect model.The NO2-related mortality usually occurred in the core economic areas of each province.The NO2 exposure was responsible for 301,873 deaths in 2020.The deaths increased by 23,790 during 2007～2013 and decreased by 80,478 during 2013～2020.The environmental Kuznets curve was found between gross domestic product(GDP)per capita and all-cause deaths.The economic growth will lead to an increase in NO2-related deaths in most cases.The increasing trend slows down for regions with higher GDP per capita.The urbanization follows a linear relationship with increased deaths.The results could provide insight into the sustainable developments for different regions in China.
