Urban Carbon Metabolism: Based on the Change of Cultivated Land Area
Publication: ICCREM 2019: Innovative Construction Project Management and Construction Industrialization
ABSTRACT
With the advancement of urbanization, urban land use structure is constantly changing, and urban land development faces new challenges. At the same time, in the face of the continuous input and output of various materials in the city, urban carbon metabolism has gradually become a research hotspot. This paper analyzes the carbon emissions of urban materials input and output in Guangzhou from 2007 to 2016, quantifies the carbon emissions, establishes a model of urban carbon metabolism, and explores the relationship between urban land area and urban cultivated land through correlation analysis. Finally, suggestions for balancing urban carbon metabolism flux and improving carbon metabolism efficiency are proposed, which provide scientific methods and tools for further promoting the sustainable development of urban land.
