Abstract
To successfully conduct the low carbon development for a region, excellent research should integrate the background review, a systemic problem description, a system modelling, and an effective solution method with an empirical research. However, there are many challenges have to face in practical operations, such as, how do we draw up the total flow path of the research? How can we reasonably construct the problem framework and model system? How can we scientifically describe the relationship of problem and model system, and integrate the functions of proposed models.
