Abstract

ABSTRACT In spatiotemporal applications, geographically weighted principal component analysis (GWPCA) is commonly adopted to describe spatial heterogeneity. However, time effects are ignored in GWPCA. In this study, the temporal effect was incorporated into GWPCA . Thus, an extended model, geographically and temporally weighted principal component analysis (GTWPCA), was developed to simultaneously explore spatial and temporal non-stationarity. The GTWPCA was implemented using a case study of air pollution in China. The results mainly show that GTWPC1 (the local component one in GTWPCA) corresponds to a ‘winning group’ with constantly varying ‘winning’ variables adapted to the spatiotemporal non-stationary characteristics of air pollution in China.
