The Measurement and Analysis on Index of Low Carbon Oriented Development for Major Cities of China
基于DPSIR模型构建城市低碳发展指数，测度中国36个城市的低碳水平，发现整体不高且无真正低碳城市，空间上东高西低，与城市财富和规模无显著相关。
In the process of rapid urbanization,industrialization and motorization in Chinese cities,low-carbon oriented development is the only way.Based on the DPSIR model,the paper built firstly the evaluation indicator system of urban low-carbon oriented development index(LCDI) from the aspects of low-carbon oriented base,low-carbon oriented energy,low-carbon oriented industry,low-carbon oriented architecture,low-carbon oriented traffic,low-carbon oriented environment,capacity of carbon sink and low-carbon oriented society.Then it measured the LCDI of 36 cities in China with a linear weighting method.The analyzing results indicates that: all the levels of low-carbon oriented development was not high and there wasn′t a real low carbon city in China;These 36 cities is divided into 3 quasi low carbon cities,22 middle carbon cites and 11 high carbon cities;The space distribution of LCDI reduced gradually from east to west and south in China;LCDI had no obvious related correlation with city wealth and city scale;Each aspect of low-carbon oriented development also didn't balance,the weak of department deeded in need of improving.This research attempted to provide a scientific basis for how to plan and construct low carbon cities with Chinese characters.
