Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper visualizes variations in the recovery patterns of intercity mobility during the Covid-19 outbreak in China using cartogram mapping. We found large regional disparities in intercity mobility recovery, with lower recovery ratios and speeds primarily concentrated in megacities and provincial capitals. Conversely, the recovery of intercity mobility was relatively high in other cities, especially in some labour-exporting cities of central and south-western China. In addition, cities in southern China showed a relatively higher recovery ratio and speed in intercity mobility than those in northern China.
