The source of scientific information is referenced below:
Ding, Y., & Peng, J. (2018). Impacts of Urbanization of Mountainous Areas on Resources and Environment: Based on Ecological Footprint Model. Sustainability,10(3), 765.
Based on what I have learned on how to evaluate sources of scientific information, I have determined that this article is peer-reviewed, academic review material. The information was written by two authors who have knowledge on the subject, as Jian Peng is the one who submitted the data analysis and it was reviwed by Yu Ding who wrote the paper and handled the manuscript submissions. The paper had been reviewed by at least one referee before publication, as we can see the submission dates and the publication dates are different. The source also reports results of an experiment by including a methods, results, and discussion section. The research is supported by in-text citations, and followed by a bibliography at the end of the paper.
