Spatial Spillover Effects of Low-Carbon Technology Level across Chinese Provinces
First author & project lead · Aug 2025 – Present
- Applied the Spatial Durbin Model (SDM) to study the spatial spillover effects of low-carbon patent R&D levels (LCTI) across 31 Chinese provinces/municipalities from 2014 to 2023.
- Used ArcGIS with PyCharm to perform GTWR (geographically and temporally weighted regression) analysis on provincial panel data.
- Produced paper visualizations with ArcGIS and Origin, including LISA cluster analysis and hot/cold-spot analysis; handled empirical work with Stata and revised the manuscript as corresponding author.
- The resulting paper has been submitted to Sustainability.
