Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Understanding the atmospheric chemistry of greenhouse gases is required to precisely quantify the correlation among human activities and climate. Industrialization and land-use modification have undoubtedly determined, in the greatest measure, the greenhouses gas emission increases, although natural emissions and sinks should not be omitted.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to present an overview of the scientific perspectives, current research, and forthcoming perspectives regarding greenhouse gases, mechanisms, and consequences in climate change and weather models at global and regional scales. Relevant research and additional studies are expected on the condition that they are precisely provided and properly evaluated. The contributions to this Special Issue contain a broad range of topics in anthropic activities and greenhouses gas emission including, but not limited to:

  • Greenhouse gas emissions and concentrations and their impacts on human health, forests, and terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems;
  • The impact of greenhouse gases on agriculture, water resources;
  • Monitoring the past and recent contributions of emissions sources;
  • Disrupting people's lives and damaging some sectors of the economy;
  • Deforestation and other changes in land use management.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Atmosphere is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2000 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

The Yangtze River Delta plays an important strategic role in China’s economic development pattern, and its carbon emission intensity, which reflects the development of a low-carbon economy, has attracted much attention. From the perspective of the city-level, this study uses the coefficient of variation, spatial autocorrelation and the Multi-scale Geographically Weighted Regression (MGWR) model to study the spatio-temporal characteristics of carbon emission intensity in the Yangtze River Delta from 1997 to 2017 and the spatial heterogeneity of its influencing factors. The results indicated that: (1) the carbon emission intensity in the Yangtze River Delta increased first and then decreased during the sample period, and the number of low-carbon emission intensity zones decreased first and then increased. (2) Through the coefficient of variation analysis, it is known that the ratio of nugget value to base value is much less than 25%, indicating that the correlation between the cities in the Yangtze River Delta is becoming more and more obvious, the spatial difference is becoming smaller, and the integration level is growing higher and higher. (3) The carbon emission intensity of the Yangtze River Delta has a strong positive spatial correlation, and the carbon emission intensity of the Yangtze River Delta decreases from the north to the south. (4) The effect of population size on carbon emission intensity is bidirectional, but the inhibition effect is greater than the promotion effect, and the average regression coefficient is −0.0796; the average regression coefficient of economic development level is 0.3674, and the average regression coefficient of industrial structure is 0.1702, both of which have a positive impact on carbon emission intensity. The degree of urbanization has a bidirectional effect, and the regression coefficient ranges from −0.920 to 0.091, and the negative effect is quite strong. Additionally, each factor has spatial heterogeneity. Full article
