Does spatial dimension matter in waste generation? Case study of Czech municipalities
Original language description
Municipal waste generation has been already studied in broad range of studies but most of the studies neglect the spatial aspect of analyzed datasets. This paper's aim is to explore spatial distribution of municipal solid waste, municipal mixed waste, glass and plastic generation in the Czech Republic. Data on municipal level for the year 2011 were analyzed using global and local indicators of spatial autocorrelation. We detected significant positive spatial autocorrelation for municipal solid waste and municipal mixed waste production, there are no spatial patterns in the case of recyclable waste streams (glass and plastic). With map visualization we could detect particular clusters of high or low amount of produced municipal solid waste and mixed municipal waste. Even though the majority of municipalities does not show any spatial distribution, we identified clusters of high waste production in Central Bohemia, Ústí nad Labem and Moravia-Silesia region and clusters with low waste production in Central Bohemia, Hradec Kralove, Pardubice, South Bohemia and Vysocina regions. To explain detected spatial distribution further research using geographically weighted regression will be carried out.
