“…As of December 2020, China had 93 EIPs distributed across all mainland provinces except Tibet and Qinghai [23]. The construction of EIPs is promoted by the central government through pilot projects, where local governments must voluntarily apply for provincial-level EIPs, which are then reviewed and approved by the central government to decide on the pilot national EIPs in different cities [28]. The incremental implementation nature allows for evaluating the effectiveness of EIP policies by comparing trends before and after policy implementation.…”

Ecological industrial parks (EIPs) play a pivotal role as primary drivers of China’s industrial green transformation, facilitating the enhancement of urban carbon emission efficiency (UCEE) and the realization of green sustainable development. This study empirically investigates the effects of EIP policies on UCEE through quasi-natural experiments, utilizing data from 282 prefecture-level cities in China spanning from 2006 to 2021. Employing a multi-period difference-in-difference (DID) method, the findings are as follows: (1) The implementation of EIP policies leads to a 2.5% average increase in UCEE. (2) Event analysis reveals certain lagging characteristics in the promoting effect of EIP policies on the carbon emission efficiency of pilot cities. (3) EIP construction primarily enhances UCEE by reinforcing agglomeration effects and elevating innovation ability. (4) The promoting effect of EIP construction is more pronounced in the eastern and central regions, as well as in non-resource-based cities within different regions. Drawing from the empirical results, this study provides pertinent recommendations for EIP construction, offering theoretical guidance to policymakers and managers in crafting sustainable development strategies.

“…A study on CEs in the field of LULUCF in the Vietnam mainland applied 10 years of land cover change data (2002-2012) as sources, processed those data with a specific software (ALU, v2014), and estimated the CEs based on the quality control and quality assurance work [37]. Some typical related research on CEs, land-use changing characteristics, and NST are listed in Table 1 [32][33][34][35][38][39][40][41][42][43]. A large number of previous works demonstrated the promising future and high efficiency of methods for land-use CEs calculation and relative correlation analysis based on the remote sensing (RS) data classification and the statistical data analysis via software processing.…”

How to identify variables for carbon reductions was considered as one of the most important research topics in related academic fields. In this study, the characteristics of landuse carbon emissions of the economic belt on the northern slope of Tianshan (NST) were tentatively investigated. Taking 12 cities in NST as the case study, land use carbon emissions and carbon intensities were estimated and analyzed based on the Landsat remote sensing image and socio-economic statistical data in 1990, 2000, 2010, and 2020. Moreover, Moran’s I model was applied to study spatial autocorrelation between carbon emissions and carbon intensities. Results show that (1) urban land and cropland were increased rapidly during the past three decades; (2) carbon emissions were increasing significantly, and the urban land was responsible for the majority of the carbon emission; (3) negative spatial correlations on both net carbon emissions and carbon intensities were obtained between 12 cities; and (4) based on carbon balance zoning analysis, NST could be divided into four different zones. The rising ratio of carbon emissions and intensities was significantly higher than urbanization expending speed. Results could provide references and useful insights into related arrangements of policies and attempts on carbon reduction for cities in NST.
