Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of carbon emission accounting, and in particular to a method for constructing a high-resolution carbon emission inventory based on multi-source data fusion of a GWR model. Background Art

[0002] As the global climate change problem becomes increasingly serious, carbon emission control has become an important issue in global environmental protection and economic development. Accurate carbon emission inventories are of great significance for formulating reasonable emission reduction policies and evaluating the effectiveness of policy implementation. However, traditional carbon emission inventories are usually based on administrative regions, with low resolution, and it is difficult to reflect the spatial heterogeneity of actual emission distribution, especially in areas with a high degree of urbanization, where the spatial pattern of carbon emissions shows significant unevenness. Therefore, making a high-resolution carbon emission inventory is one of the important technical challenges in current carbon emission research.

[0003] In recent years, data methods based on remote sensing and geographic information systems have provided new possibilities for the spatialization of carbon emissions. Among them, night light data, population density data, industrial emission location data, etc. have become important spatial proxy variables for studying the spatial distribution of carbon emissions. Night light data can be used as a proxy indicator of human activity intensity, which has a strong correlation with carbon emissions; population density data can reflect the spatial distribution of residents' activities and energy consumption; road density data is closely related to traffic emission intensity; point source emission location data provides direct spatial distribution information of high-pollution emission industries and facilities.

[0004] Although the above data provide rich basic information for the preparation of high-resolution carbon emission inventories, how to integrate these multi-source data and effectively improve the prediction accuracy remains a key issue. The geographically weighted regression model is a tool widely used in spatial statistical analysis. By introducing the weight of spatial location, it can effectively capture the spatial heterogeneity between variables and their local variation characteristics. Therefore, the use of the GWR model combined with night lights, population density, road density and point source emission data can provide a higher accuracy and spatial resolution solution for the preparation of carbon emission inventories.

[0005] Existing research mainly focuses on the spatial processing of carbon emissions from a single data source or atmospheric inversion model, which results in insufficient resolution and accuracy in the generated inventory and the inability to capture the spatial characteristics of different emission sources. The multi-source data integration method based on the GWR model can significantly improve the accuracy of the carbon emission inventory by utilizing the complementarity and synergy of different data sources, and provide a scientific basis for the spatial management and policy support of carbon emissions. In addition, this method can also adapt to the application needs of different scales and regions, and has strong universality and promotion value.

[0006] At present, the production of global and regional carbon emission inventories has formed several mature representative methods and databases, including ODIAC, EDGAR and MEIC. These inventories are widely used in carbon emission research and policy making, but there are still limitations in practical applications. For example, ODIAC provides a global carbon emission inventory with a spatial resolution of 1KM. Although it has a high resolution on a global scale, it does not use spatial proxy data to characterize the line source emission characteristics of the transportation sector. And due to the openness of the data, the location of industrial emissions in some regions is difficult to obtain, so the current emission inventory lacks point source emission data and cannot meet the needs of precise emission reduction at the local scale. Similarly, the EDGAR and MEIC inventories invert carbon emissions through atmospheric inversion models, resulting in a coarser spatial resolution and unable to reflect detailed emission characteristics such as transportation line source emissions and industrial point source emissions.

[0007] There are also many studies on methods for constructing high-resolution carbon emission inventories that have not yet formed an inventory, but most of them use simple allocation weights or linear regression methods, and do not fully integrate the collaborative information of multiple source data such as night lights, road density, and point source emission locations. This method is difficult to accurately reflect the spatial heterogeneity between different emission sources, resulting in insufficient prediction accuracy. Especially in areas with significant regional differences, model results are prone to systematic errors. Summary of the invention

[0008] The production of accurate and high-resolution carbon emission inventories has become a key link in carbon emission reduction research. More accurate characterization of carbon emission spatial patterns can facilitate more accurate atmospheric model simulation and emission tracing. Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to:

[0009] 1. Improve the spatial resolution of the carbon emission inventory and refine the emission characteristics of different regions;

[0010] 2. In the process of modeling point, line and surface multi-source emissions, make full use of the collaborative information of various types of data and optimize the multivariate modeling method;

[0011] 3. Overcome the problem that existing models are not able to handle local heterogeneity and enhance the model's ability to depict regional carbon emission differences;

[0012] This paper provides a method for constructing a high-resolution carbon emission inventory by integrating multi-source data with the GWR model. By integrating statistical data and spatial proxy data, a 1km spatial resolution grid distribution of carbon emissions is achieved, providing support for carbon emission research and management at different scales.

[0013] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

Then, combined with the land use data, the fire points on the artificial surface are screened again to effectively distinguish industrial heat sources from other thermal anomalies. In order to avoid repeated statistics, the industrial heat source points within the power plant are excluded, thereby obtaining the accurate location of the industrial sector; the night light values ​​corresponding to the processed industrial department locations are extracted, and the extracted night light values ​​are used as the spatial distribution data of the industrial sector.

[0025] Preferably, the transportation department calculates road density data by using the public global road data OpenStreetMap data, and couples it with nighttime light data to obtain spatial distribution data;

[0026] The resident department obtains spatial distribution data by coupling the global population density data and nighttime light data published by the LandScan database;

[0029] Among them, D i NTL represents spatial distribution data, i represents the traffic or residential sector, D represents road or population density data, NTL represents the night lighting index, and 0.34 is the default critical value of the night lighting value.

[0030] Preferably, the k region is a country, province or city; the spatial distribution data is: night light index.

[0031] Preferably, the density-based noise application spatial clustering algorithm DBSCAN is used, wherein the algorithm clustering distance is set to 800 meters and the minimum number of clusters of point elements is set to 5.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0033] 1. The present invention takes into account the integrity of statistical data and the refined characteristics of spatial proxy data. By optimizing the traditional downscaling method, it significantly improves the spatial resolution and prediction accuracy of the carbon emission inventory.

[0034] 2.

Compared with the traditional downscaling method based on single proxy data, the method of the present invention achieves accurate allocation of carbon emission spatial characteristics based on power, industry, transportation and civil sectors at a spatial resolution of 1km;

[0035] 3. This paper introduces the GWR model in the construction of the carbon emission inventory. By considering the influence of spatial position on the model parameters through the weighted matrix, it can dynamically capture the spatial heterogeneity of carbon emissions in different regions. Compared with the traditional global regression model, this method can better characterize the changes in carbon emission characteristics within the region and provide more refined carbon emission distribution data for areas with significant regional differences.

[0036] 4. The present invention significantly improves the model operation efficiency by calculating spatial proxy data compared with the atmospheric transmission model and the bottom-up statistical method to calculate carbon emissions. In addition, this method supports multi-scale applications and can adapt to the construction requirements of national, provincial and municipal carbon emission inventories, providing refined data support for carbon emission reduction policies at different management levels.
