摘要

The paper measures the total carbon emissions and carbon emission intensity of different Chinese provinces between 2000 and 2012,then analyses the spatial features and dynamic evolution of carbon emission intensity through exploratory spatial data analysis,to explore its clustering characteristics of spatial and temporal distribution and dynamic evolution.The effect of industrial agglomeration on the carbon emission intensity in China is estimated by using spatial econometric model.According to the research,three new findings are revealed as follows:firstly,inter-provincial carbon emission intensity in middle-west and northeast areas is much higher than southeast areas in China.Secondly,the spatial domain dependence and difference of China's inter-provincial carbon intensity exist simultaneously.Thirdly,the elastic coefficient of carbon intensity for industrial agglomeration change is between-0.228%and-0.37%.On the basis of these conclusions,the paper will put forward several policy recommendations according to empirical study.
