The transformation and driving factors of multi-linkage embodied carbon emission in the Yangtze River Economic Belt

As the largest river in Asia with masses of population and industries along the riverside, the Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) produces tremendous carbon emissions. However, trade-induced environmental impacts of such a megaregion with multiple geographic linkages are always neglected in the rive...
