The coupling relationship between urbanization and ecological resilience in the Pearl River Delta

Shaojian Wang et al.

Summary: Urban resilience is an emerging research topic in urban studies, which refers to the ability of cities to withstand, recover from, and adapt to uncertain disruptions. This paper constructs an urban ecological resilience evaluation system based on Size, Density, and Morphology, and measures the degree of coupling coordination between urbanization and ecological resilience in the Pearl River Delta from 2000 to 2015. The results show that the urbanization level increased while the ecological resilience decreased during this period, and the coupling coordination degree between the two systems shifted from basic coordination to basic imbalance. The spatial distribution of coupling coordination degree exhibited a circular pattern, with higher coordination degree towards the periphery from the cities at the estuary of the Pearl River. The different sub-systems of ecological resilience played varying roles in the coupling coordination process.

Has the Digital Economy Reduced Carbon Emissions?: Analysis Based on Panel Data of 278 Cities in China

Zhuoxi Yu et al.

Summary: China is currently undergoing a significant urbanization process, with low-carbon urban development being crucial for achieving the dual carbon goals. The digital economy has emerged as a key driver for urban development, playing a growing role in environmental improvement. Through an analysis of panel data from 278 cities in China between 2011 and 2019, it is shown that the digital economy has a substantial inhibitory effect on carbon emissions, leading to more cities achieving a decoupling of digital economy growth and carbon emissions, towards a path of low-carbon development. Additionally, the level of digital economy development has a varied impact on carbon emissions, with higher levels of development showing more significant reduction effects. The efficiency of green energy also plays a pivotal role in determining whether the digital economy promotes or reduces carbon emissions.

The geographic disparity of historical greenhouse emissions and projected climate change

Kyle S. Van Houtan et al.

Summary: One challenge in climate change communication is the lack of a direct link between the causes and impacts of global warming at local scales. High-resolution datasets on greenhouse gas emissions and temperature projections have helped identify regions with significant climate disparity across the globe, highlighting the widespread impact of warming despite localized emissions. Specific regions facing the greatest positive disparity include the polar arctic, Central Asia, and Africa, while negative disparity regions are found in western Europe, Southeast Asia, and eastern North America. Communication efforts that illustrate these disparities may help promote equity awareness, enhance public understanding, and encourage collective global action.
