Characterizing the Growth Patterns of 45 Major Metropolitans in Mainland China Using DMSP/OLS Data

Abstract: Abstract:Understanding growth patterns at the metropolitan level is instructive for better planning and policy making on sustainable urban development. Using DMSP/OLS data from 1992 to 2013, this article aims to investigate growth patterns of major metropolitans in Mainland China from the aspects of intensification and expansion. We start by calibrating the DMSP/OLS data and selecting 45 major metropolitans. On intensification, results suggest that aggregately, metropolitans displayed cyclical pattern over tim… Show more

“…Pixel level spatial-temporal detection provides a new insight into the dynamics and changes of the nighttime light images, and the detected urbanization dynamics and spatial patterns in this study are relatively consistent with that found in previous studies (Yi et al, 2016;Jia et al, 2017;Xin et al, 2017). While the pixel level detecting in this study is more superiority, since the detection on the dynamics of each pixel provides more reliable and believable evidence than traditional methods.…”

“…Heterogeneous isomorphism theory is also used to explain the possibility that visual artworks become the perceptual experience of observers and the unique perceptual mode of artists (D'Angeli et al, 2016 ; Katsur, 2018 ). In China, although Ding Ning's art psychology has filled the gap in the field of Chinese art psychology (Yao et al, 2016 ) and The Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts opened an experimental course of art psychology, it still fails to make up for the lack of formal psychology education for art majors (Jia et al, 2017 ). However, the development of art psychology still has a broader prospect, and countless scholars are looking forward to the further success of art design education.…”

“…With the rapid development of urbanization, the composition and spatial pattern of urban underlying surface have also changed dramatically, resulting in environmental pollution problems such as urban heat island effect and PM2.5 (Parrish and Zhu 2009). These environmental problems have seriously restricted the development of towns and regions, caused serious negative harm to human health, and also affected urban climate change and ecological balance (Wang 2011;Zhang and Su 2016;Jia et al 2017;Zou et al 2017;Yang and Sun 2017;Sun et al 2022). Therefore, They have attracted extensive attention from the government and the public.…”
