Abstract Understanding the spatial distribution characteristics and formation mechanism of urban facilities (city functional components) constitutes basis layout optimization. Currently, research on overall various types city components is lacking. In this study, by applying gradient analysis method common in ecology, we considered 13 (80,214 individuals total) large, medium small Chinese cities (9 to carry out quantitative along urban–rural gradients through density curves. The results...

Abstract The structure and “metabolism” (movement conversion of goods energy) urban areas has caused cities to be identified as “super‐organisms”, placed between ecosystems the biosphere, in hierarchy living systems. Yet most such analogies are weak, render super‐organism model ineffective for sustainable development cities. Via a cluster analysis 15 shared traits hierarchical system, we found that industrialized more similar eukaryotic cells than multicellular organisms; enclosed systems,...

Abstract The dynamics of a city's structures are determined by the coupling functional components (such as restaurants) and human population. Yet, there lacks mechanism models to quantify forces on spatial distribution components. Here, gradient model is explored simulate individual density curves multiple types city based equilibria gravitational repulsive along with urban–rural gradient. concise relying four key variables, attributes include net ecosystem service ( m ) environmental index...

As the spaces for dialogue between past and future, museums are essential to human well-being social sustainability. Here, we collected data from 328 cities in 31 provinces of mainland China 1980 2019 investigate changes number spatial inequalities museums. The results showed that: (1) China, there were only 137 1980, while this increased 5626 2019, still possessed four per million people; (2) increasing lagged behind growth rate both population economy at province city level; (3) Gini...

The co-evolution of economic and ecological activities represents one the fundamental challenges in realm sustainable development. This study on word trends mainstream newspapers from UK China reveals that both early-industrialised countries latecomers follow three modes co-evolution. First, words demonstrate an S-shaped growth trajectory, mode underscores importance information propagation, whilst also highlighting crucial role self-organisation accept society. Second, co-occurrence these...

Prevailing hypotheses recognize cities as 'super-organisms' which both provides organizing principles for and fills the scalar gap in hierarchical living system between ecosystems entire planet. However, most analogies traits of organisms are inappropriate making super-organism model impractical a means to acquire new knowledge. Using cluster analysis 15 other systems, we found that modern more similar eukaryotic cells than multicellular organisms. Enclosed industrial such factories...

The dynamics of city's spatial structures are determined by the coupling functional components (such as restaurants and shops) human beings within city. Yet, there still lacks mechanism models to quantify distribution components. Here, we establish a gradient model simulate density curves multiple types based on equilibria gravitational repulsive forces along urban-rural gradient. from city center both attributes (land rent, population people's environmental preferences) (supply capacity,...

Abstract Many urban features are found to follow the scaling law ( Y = αN β ). It has been that infrastructures scale 5/6 sublinearly with population size, and commercial facilities superlinearly. However, there is a lack of systematic research on laws different types functional components covering comprehensive processes, mechanism explanation for rare. Using data from 523 cities, this study studied 22 components, taking into account socio-economic development stage cities. Results show...

The orderly spatial structure of cities promotes city vitality and human well-being. mismatch between traditional shops the population causes inequality shopping opportunities along urban-rural gradients. This has been deconstructed. rapid expansion express delivery outlets linked to online reduces an unknown degree. study focused on patterns in cities. Gini coefficient was used quantify 18 Chinese We further compared ecosystem services two types facilities. results show that (1) net...
