Abstract

This study focuses on sustainability issues related to urban light pollution. Utilizing a comprehensive evaluation model, created by integrating ExtraTrees and CatBoost decision tree models along with the ARIMA Time Series model, the study establishes management strategies under varying light pollution levels. Initially, 363 cities were sampled to identify factors affecting light pollution through the analysis of Night Sky Brightness (NSB). Subsequently, four representative regions within Guangzhou were empirically evaluated to affirm the model's robustness and accuracy. Lastly, interventions involving the modification of GDP growth, urbanization, and forest cover indices were simulated to assess their impact on light pollution levels. The findings indicate that targeted interventions can effectively mitigate light pollution.
