Spatial–Temporal Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Carbon Emission Performance: A Comparative Analysis Between Provincial and Prefectural Levels from Global and Local Pers... by Yi-Xin Zhang, Yi-Shan Zhang

“…Provincially, dominant factors rank as time-lagged CEP(CEP_lag)> proportion of built-up land(P_built) > spatial lag of CEP(W×CEP) > fractional vegetation coverage (lnFVC); while prefecturally, CEP_lag > spatial error coefficient(rho) > W×CEP > P_built, with the proportion of secondary industry in GDP (GDP2)/proportion of tertiary industry in GDP (GDP3) gaining greater significance. (3) Local regression results reveal significant spatiotemporal heterogeneity in CEP influencing factors. lnFVC and W×CEP show the most distinct differences between levels, while land-use factors like P_built and nighttime light index (NTL) exhibit unstable spatiotemporal effects. …”
