Summary
This summary is machine-generated.Artificial intelligence (AI) significantly promotes urban low-carbon transformation in China. The study highlights AI
Area Of Science
- Environmental Science & Urban Planning
- Artificial Intelligence & Sustainable Development
Background
- Urban low-carbon transformation is critical for sustainable development.
- The role of emerging technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) in this transformation requires empirical investigation.
- China's rapid urbanization and AI development present a unique case study.
Purpose Of The Study
- To evaluate the impact of AI development on urban low-carbon transformation efficiency in China.
- To analyze regional and city-type variations in AI's impact on low-carbon initiatives.
- To provide data-driven policy recommendations for leveraging AI in sustainable urban development.
Main Methods
- Development of a comprehensive index system for AI and urban low-carbon transformation.
- Application of entropy weight-TOPSIS and super-efficiency SBM models for measurement.
- Utilizing fixed effect and spatial Durbin models to analyze impact and spatial associations.
Main Results
- Both AI development and urban low-carbon transformation efficiency show a general upward trend in China (2012-2022).
- AI development demonstrates a significant positive effect on promoting urban low-carbon transformation.
- The positive impact of AI varies across regions (eastern/western vs. central) and city types (non-sub-provincial/prefecture vs. municipalities/sub-provincial), with significant effects observed in resource-based and non-resource-based cities.
Conclusions
- AI is a key driver for advancing urban low-carbon transformation in China.
- Policy interventions should consider regional and city-specific characteristics for optimal AI integration.
- AI's spatial spillover effects necessitate coordinated regional strategies for sustainable urban development.

The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.

An important concept in studying metabolism and energy is that of chemical equilibrium. Most chemical reactions are reversible. They can proceed in both directions, releasing energy into their environment in one direction, and absorbing it from the environment in the other direction. The same is true for the chemical reactions involved in cell metabolism, such as the breaking down and building up of proteins into and from individual amino acids, respectively. Reactants within a closed system...
As the human population continues to grow and use resources, we must be mindful of our planet’s natural limits. Sustainable development provides a pathway to maintain and improve human life now while also ensuring that future generations will have the resources that they need. The long-term success of sustainability efforts rests on understanding the interplay between human actions and ecological systems.
The oceans are one important focus of global conservation efforts. Overfishing,...
Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Climate refers to the prevailing weather conditions in a specific area over an extended period. As the saying goes, “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” Climate is influenced by geographic factors, such as latitude, terrain, and proximity to bodies of water.
Weather and Climate
Weather and climate are related, though they differ in terms of time scale and predictability. Weather refers to the state of the atmosphere at a specific time and place, whereas climate...
