Correlation Between Land Use Structure and Carbon Emission in Urumqi City
[Objective] The relationship between land use structure and carbon emission in Urumqi City was analyzed
and their correlation and the change characteristics were demonatrated analyzed in a certain time range
so as to explore a way to reduce carbon emission reduction from land use and to provide reference for rational utilization of lands and for the simultaneous improvements of ecological
economic and social effects.[Methods] Based on the data of land change and energy consumption in Urumqi City during 2001-2015
carbon emission
carbon emissions intensity and per capita carbon emissions were estimated. Grey relational degree model was constructed to measure the correlation degrees between land use structure and the above three variables.[Results] The carbon emission increased by nearly 2.6 times
from 8.31 million tons to 21 million tons during 2001-2015 in Urumqi City. The highest correlations between land use structure and variables of carbon emission
carbon intensity and per capita carbon emission listed as below:transportation land was 0.730 8
grassland was 0.765 1 and garden land was 0.821 5. And construction land was highly correlated with carbon emission.[Conclusion] Land use structure is closely related to the carbon emission
and it is feasible to control carbon emission through reasonable adjustment of land use structure.
