Further research,however, is needed to explore the theoretical basis for this new approach to urbanization.This paper summarizes the process of development of urbanization in China and describes its specific characteristics, including peri-urbanization, special national conditions, complicated factors, and governance system. China’s urbanization makes a great contribution to urbanization on a world scale. Moreover, the literature on the subject demonstrates the significance of urbanization to the discipline of human and economic geography and the scientific connotations of new urbanization, which is people-oriented, harmonious, inclusive, and sustainable. Against a background of humanism, new urbanization represents a transformation from population urbanization to people-oriented urbanization. There are six crucial scientific issues involved: people-oriented urbanization and equalization of basic public services;urbanization with integrated and coordinated urban and rural development;urbanization in the context of resources and environmental carrying capacity and climate change;diverse regional modes;spatial effect and mechanism;and big data and technical innovation. The paper aims to illustrate the theoretical framework of China’s new urbanization, providing references for both theoretical research and policy formulation.展开更多

What forces are driving the urbanization process? This paper summarizes five main processes of urbanization through various aspects of urbanization in different countries, including economic growth and development, demographic change, social transformation, reshaped and stretched urban spaces, and shrinking cities. Based on the comprehensive method of analyzing urbanization, this paper sorts out five driving forces of urbanization, which are industrialization, modernization, globalization, marketization and administrative/institutional power. The author tries to contribute to the healthy development of urbanization in developing countries through the analysis of process and driving force in urbanization.展开更多

Traditional urbanization theory has become hard to interpret these changes on a global scale, and 'innovation' is a core concept to explain the new changes of the urbanization dynamics. As one of the important contents of urban geography, urbanization dynamic needs to turn from the general population flows between rural and urban areas into emphasizing high skilled migrants flow among cities and regions research. Against this background, we propose a conception of innovation-based urbanization. Using this concept, this study analyzes the spatial distribution characteristics of high skilled migrants and cultural diversity on urban innovation in China, based on the data of the sixth census of 270 cities at the prefecture level or above in China. This study measures the extent to which highly skilled migrants and cultural diversity increase urban innovation, by using spatial Durbin method to construct urban innovation regression model, to support the concept of innovation-based urbanization. The result shows that: first of all, the concept of innovation-based urbanization conforms to the development of knowledge economy, which emphasizes the migration process of highly skilled labor to cities. It helps to promote the changes in urban functions and landscapes and the expansion of urban knowledge activities, which undelines new dynamics of urban development, innovative landscape. Secondly, innovation urbanization based on highly skilled migrants flow is an important driving force for the development of Chinese cities, especially for eastern coastal cities and capital cities. Thirdly, the scale of highly skilled migrants flow and the level of urban cultural diversity in China both have been demonstrated of having positive effect on urban innovation output. With other conditions unchanged, a 10% increase in the number of urban highly skilled migrants and urban cultural diversity will direc展开更多
城市化产生热岛效应。利用改进的CTTC(cluster thermal time constant)模型对城市化后的建筑群室外空气温度进行模拟计算,将计算结果作为室外计算温度,对广州市某典型住宅建筑空调冷负荷进行了计算,并与典型气象日下的室外温度计算出来...城市化产生热岛效应。利用改进的CTTC(cluster thermal time constant)模型对城市化后的建筑群室外空气温度进行模拟计算,将计算结果作为室外计算温度,对广州市某典型住宅建筑空调冷负荷进行了计算,并与典型气象日下的室外温度计算出来的冷负荷进行比较。结果表明,夏季冷负荷受城市化影响较大,采用典型气象日温度计算出的围护结构冷负荷比按小区设计温度计算的低10%~36%,而新风冷负荷受室外温度的影响波动更明显。展开更多
