Low-carbon transition at community-level
Global warming and climate crisis triggered by greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have become the core challenge of humanity in the 21st century. With more than 71% of carbon emissions occurring in urban areas, cities are both major contributors to carbon emissions and key actors in climate governance. The achievement of low-carbon goals not only requires strategic planning at the national level, but also relies upon fine-tuned commitment at city lev…
Healthy city evaluation research
Entrepreneurial local-state driven rural e-commerce development
A methodological framework for analysing the justice phenomenon embedded in urban regeneration
A guiding methodology for “urban physical examination”
Fast urbanisation development has brought rampant sprawl of cities, where various urban diseases have been emerging. Therefore, how to effectively understand the health status of a city, diagnose root causes of urban diseases, and implement proper policy measures and effective actions to address these diseases have become critical issues for achieving urban sustainability. Via regarding city as an organic system, from the perspective of sustainab…
Spatiotemporal impacts of urban structure upon urban land-use efficiency
Regeneration towards suitability
Urban regeneration has become a popular research topic globally against the critical challenges that cities face with the decay of urban function, urban fabric, and residents living condition. However, it is the proper decision-making on urban regeneration mode and strategies to bring the long-term effectiveness of urban regeneration, no matter how much efforts and resources are devoted. This study introduces a “two-step” decision-making framewor…
Exploring the heterogeneity in drivers of energy-saving behaviours among hotel guests
Guest behaviour is important in driving hotel energy consumption, operating cost and environmental issues. Promoting energy-saving behaviours of guests is a promising strategy for the sustainable development of the hospitality industry. This research aims to explore the roles of personality profiles in individual heterogeneity in drivers of energy-saving behaviours among hotel guests. The study is based on a three-step research roadmap: First, we…
How can smart city shape a happier life? The mechanism for developing a Happiness Driven Smart City
Smart City conception has become a global trend with the advancement of Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs). Many cities have proposed Smart City development strategies to capture the opportunities brought by ICTs. However, little attention has been given to investigate whether and how Smart City acts upon human happiness. To fill this gap, this study introduces a Happiness Driven Smart City (HDSC) mechanism to better guide the dev…
Can urban agglomeration bring “1 + 1 > 2Effect”? A perspective of land resource carrying capacity
A dimensional perspective-based analysis on the practice of low carbon city in China
The rapid urbanization process in China has resulted in a large number of carbon emissions. Practicing low-carbon city (LCC) strategy is considered as a key pathway towards carbon reduction, and a dimensional analysis on LCC performance can identify weak areas of a city's low-carbon development, from which tailored LCC measures can be developed and adopted to better guide LCC practice. Existing studies tend to pay more attention upon the overall …
Exploring the spatiotemporal pattern of traffic congestion performance of large cities in China
The socioeconomic costs of traffic congestion are crippling in urbanising China. This study is a first attempt to explore the spatiotemporal pattern of traffic congestion performance in 77 Chinese large cities by using real-time big data. Based upon the hourly real-time traffic performance index data collected between August 27, 2019 to September 27, 2019, four clusters of cities have been captured in line with their urban traffic congestion patt…
How to address properly the scale of urban infrastructures? –An empirical study of 35 large Chinese cities
A novel evaluation method for urban infrastructures carrying capacity
Economic perspective-based analysis on urban infrastructures carrying capacity — A China study
Sustainability based perspective on the utilization efficiency of urban infrastructure --- A China study
An alternative model for evaluating the balance of carrying capacity between functional urban infrastructures
Is the low‐carbon economy efficient in terms of sustainable development? A global perspective
Despite great efforts being devoted to, and substantial resources being consumed by low‐carbon economy (LCE) development globally, it appears that little is known about whether LCE development is efficient. This paper measures low‐carbon economy efficiency (LCEE) performance from a global perspective. The Super‐slack‐based measure model is adopted to analyse the LCEE performance of 115 sample countries during 1999–2013. The Malmquist Productivity…
Changing trends in China’s inequality
The edited book, Changing trends in China’s inequality: Evidence, Analysis, and Prospects is a comprehensive, evidence-based, systematic study of various issues of the evolving inequality in China
