Human Geography
Facing the frontier of international economic geography theory, around the "The Belt and Road " strategic needs and characteristics of the development of practice in China, take the industrial transfer and environmental effects, new urbanization and city agglomeration, spatial agglomeration and industrial clusters, regional difference and coordinated development as the core, constructing the "learning field" new economic geography theory. It will play a leading role in the forefront of economic geography, the construction of central plains economic zone, industrial cluster innovation and regional planning. And the depth of participation in the central city group, central plains economic zone, "The Belt and Road" strategic research and space planning practice, has made an important breakthrough in the field of theory, strategy and policy of the rise of central plains. It has made important theory, strategy and policy innovation in the integration of the theory of new economic geography, the development of the urban agglomeration along the Yellow City and the construction of the support belt for the integration of ecological and cultural economy in the Yellow River. It has become a new and specialized high-end think tank of the new specialty in the field of national ecological civilization.
Cartography and Geographical Information System
With the integration of modern geographic information technology and regional system model as the core, the study of geographic spatial information mechanism and regional development model, research the development of space expression, spatial data integration and sharing, virtual geographic environment, large geographic data, GIS cloud service platform construction, geographical space configuration optimization and other key technologies and methods, The process, pattern and mechanism of regional development are intelligently simulated. The integration of multi-dimensional geographic data collection, model analysis and sharing services; regional models and information systems are highly integrated. It has international high-level talent team, high-end research platform, all-round simulation technology and service regional development ability. The great geographical data, green low-carbon development simulation and wisdom city construction, the new technology zone model and simulation, spatial analysis and optimization, the humanities and social sciences space integrated research methods, such as for regional development to provide accurate Internet + geographic information, ecological environment monitoring and optimization services.
Environmental Science
Research was carried out on the health risk assessment and repair technology system of soil-crop system pollutants, the environmental effects of industrial transfer and the development of efficient water treatment system in the central region. Based on the soil-crop system in the main grain producing area of Henan Province, the spatial and temporal distribution and health risk of heavy metals were revealed, and the remediation of heavy metal pollution in soil was carried out. Taking Zhengzhou economic and technological development zone and other industrial agglomeration areas as objects, dynamic monitoring of regional environment is carried out. The integrated waterway treatment system has been developed and operated in Shenzhen, Beijing and other places with good results. There are research platforms such as the engineering research center of Henan province for soil heavy metal pollution control and restoration, the open laboratory of key disciplines of colleges and universities in the province for environmental change and soil and water pollution prevention and control. And soil heavy metal stabilizer has been widely applied in large scale, and has achieved a breakthrough in the treatment technology of high concentration and refractory organic pollutants.
Regional economics
To combine the international frontier theory with the development of the central plains, establish the theory of human geography with Chinese characteristics, carry out a series of studies on Farmers' geographical and agricultural development, urban agglomeration, urban and rural coordination, rural settlement and so on, and explore the theory and relevant policy about the practice of urban and rural development. Based on the reductionism method of scientific research, we explore the micro mechanism and spatial pattern of the phenomenon of human geography. With the long-term and continuous research on the underdeveloped agricultural areas and urban agglomerations in the central region, we have formed the research highland of human geography with the characteristics of the central plains. According to the actual situation of Henan province, in the development of settlement pattern, the formation and agglomeration of specialized villages, the integrated development of urban agglomeration and other aspects in the process of urbanization of traditional agricultural areas, we have gained the world-class achievements.
