Air pollution seriously threats to human health. Understanding the health effects of air is great importance for developing countermeasures. However, little known about real-time impacts on heath in a comprehensive way nations, like China. To fill this research gap, Chinese urbanites' were sensed from more than 210.82 million Weibo (Chinese Twitter) data 2017. The association between and sensing quantified through generalized additive models, based which sensitivities adaptions 70 China's...

• With growing concerns over serious ecological problems, a particular challenge is to reveal the complex mechanisms underlying rapid expansion of invasive species. Ageratina adenophora interest in addressing this question. We used geographic information systems and logistic regression identify environmental factors contributing presence A. adenophora. Join-count spatial statistics with reproduction mode examination were employed elucidate spatiotemporal dispersal mechanisms. Multiple have...

The rising temperature makes the weather becoming more extreme. Understanding how extreme hot temperature—heat wave events (HWEs)—are likely to alter individual heat exposure and sensitivity is crucial for developing climate change mitigation adaptation strategies. Despite importance, little known about real-time impacts of HWEs on daily life in nations, like China. To fill this gap, we adopt over 1544 thousand Weibo (Chinese Twitter) social media data, coupled with meteorological conditions...

Based on two on-site questionnaire surveys in the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, this study identifies constructs of tourists' perception by exploratory factor analysis, and proposes a relationship model. Then complex relationships are explored structural equation modelling. The results suggest heritage attraction cultural experience positively affect attitude towards protection, while experience, service facilities market conditions preference tourism development. More importantly,...

Urban structure is a vital aspect that profoundly influences the livability and sustainability of cities. Although extensive explorations have conducted on urban from perspective human mobility, there remains gap in understanding travel networks (UTNs) spatial structures multi-activity perspective. In this study, we first inferred locations types daily activity for over four million Beijing residents through multi-source data fusion. Subsequently, constructed eight UTNs based multiple flows...

To map risk of exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in an urban area and assess the ability traditional interventions control dispersion disease.Data on Beijing SARS epidemic were used spatial clusters identified contacts estimate transmission using a model with time-dependent rate.The estimated rate decreased dramatically from 20 30 April 2003. The total number cases was be 2521. Hierarchical clustering revealed that risk-exposures widespread, but clustered pattern is...

The aboveground biomass (AGB) is closely linked to the carbon cycle in grassland ecosystems worldwide. Accurately quantifying AGB variations thus essential for assessing sequestration and its feedback on climate change. Although many studies have investigated AGB, they are limited local areas few research efforts been attempted estimate at large scales with constraint of situ quadrat harvested AGB. In this study, we used multi-source satellite remote sensing data from 2000 2021 abundant...

Improper urban spatial structure can lead to problems such as traffic congestion, long commuting times, and diseconomies of scale. Evaluating the efficiency is an important means enhance sustainable development cities. The fractal method has been widely used in identification evaluation due its sufficient characterization complexity. However, structures expanded from monofractal multifractal structures, while remains limited single-dimensional evaluations single fractals, seriously affecting...

Abstract The intensification of global heat wave events is seriously affecting residents' emotional health. Based on social media big data, our research explored the spatial pattern sentiments during waves (SDHW). Besides, their association with urban functional areas (UFAs) was analyzed using Apriori algorithm rule mining. It found that SDHW in Beijing were characterized by obvious clustering, hot spots predominately dispersed and far suburbs, cold mainly clustered near suburbs. As for...
