In North Korea, due to its high population density and relatively small land area, CE distribution is denser, with line-source emissions. Most emissions fall within the top 50% of East Asia’s CE grid range, with zero-emission areas concentrated in the northeast. The top 10% of high ...
East Asia provides a unique setting for studying urbanization and population dynamics, as these countries experience rapid urban life cycles with minimal immigration influence compared to Western nations. As the first East Asian country to undergo urbanization, Japan is characterized by both population ...
