As the world’s largest anthropogenic emitter of black carbon (BC), China exhibits substantial regional disparities in emissions. This study integrates provincial data into an endogenized multi-regional input–output (MRIO) framework and ap...
Embodied energy flows link production systems with the energy sector, reflecting dependencies and structural risks under globalization and regional coordination. Guangdong, China’s most manufacturing-intensive, open, and energy-consuming provin...
This paper presents a multivariate analysis of urban and rural residential water consumption from 2010 to 2020 using an input–output model considering consumption and income. We employed structural decomposition analysis (SDA) and structural pa...
Data-driven approaches in machine learning are increasingly applied in economic analysis, particularly for identifying business cycle (BC) turning points. However, temporal dependence in BCs is often overlooked, leading to what we term single path an...
It is believed that renewable energy may become a dominant energy in the future. However, whether renewable energy can promote industry development like the use of fossil energy is still unknown. This paper uses social accounting matrix (SAM) multipl...
Interprovincial trade has expanded China’s virtual water consumption and economic development. This study uses an environmental–economic inequality index to calculate the virtual water and economic benefit transfer imbalances in interprov...
Black carbon (BC) and CO2 emissions are the two major factors responsible for global climate change and the associated health risks. Quantifying the impact of economic activities in urban agglomerations on BC and CO2 emissions is essential for findin...
Biofuels have been extensively explored and applied in the Brazilian market. In Brazil, ethanol and biodiesel are produced on an industrial scale. Ethanol is commercialized and used in engines in both the hydrated form (96% °GL) and the anhydrous for...
As a strategic energy source underpinning industrial security, oil’s resource consumption is often tied to its production site. However, its embedding in goods and trade-related transfer leads to a spatial dislocation between physical supply bu...
The aging population has posed a challenge to China’s carbon neutrality pledge. To study the household carbon footprint in an aging society, this paper has combined the age-specific consumption pattern and environmental input-output life cycle...
In response to global climate change and China’s “Dual Carbon” goals, the transition to low-carbon manufacturing has become a crucial step for achieving high-quality regional development. This study focuses on the Chengdu–Chon...
Copper is a critical mineral resource and plays a crucial role in social and economic development. In China, the world’s largest copper consumer, copper footprints and embodied copper transfers among sectors have not been studied sufficiently....
