Abstract
In this paper, based on the data of carbon emissions of county-level in Inner Mongolia autonomous region of China, using the Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) model, we quantitatively analyze the effects of six social-economic driving factors, including Gross Domestic Product (GDP), population (Popu), economic growth rate (EconGR), urbanization (Urba), industrial structure (InduS) and road density (RoadD) on regional carbon emissions. The results were achieved as follow:(1) The spatial heterogeneity of carbon emissions of Inner Mongolia and the social-economic factors of affecting carbon emissions are obviously; (2) the correlation among the six factors is low. (3) GDP, InduS and Popu have significant effect on carbon emissions, and effects of EconGR, Urba and RoadD are smaller. The impacts of different factors on carbon emissions at different spatial region show spatial heterogeneity.
