... Since the 1990s, the gentrification process in the U.S. has diffused down the urban hierarchy and to neighborhoods further from downtown. This paper focuses on one census tract in the inner-ring suburbs of one mid-sized city in the U.S. undergoing gentrification between 2000 and 2016. While the use of census data to measure gentrification has been around for decades, a new tool, Google Street View ...

Abstract:
... Formed from the westernmost territories of Hungary, Burgenland became a part of Austria a hundred years ago. The aim of the paper is to answer the question of how Burgenland became integrated into the Austrian society and economy, how its regional inequalities and rural character changed in comparison to the neighbouring Austrian and Hungarian areas, under the influence of Vienna’s major role. The ...

Abstract:
... Economics of scale refer to the benefits in cost, efficiency, and sustainability yielded with increasing size. Driven by shrinking household size and urban sprawl, household or urban economies of scale have been declining in recent decades. The declining scale economies may also affect CO₂ emissions, which, however, have not been well understood due to a mixture of other factors. Based on the Chin ...

Abstract:
... The mean flow of direct survey estimates is mainly concerning the sample adequacy fulfillment unless it has been produced large variance estimates, and therefore, the small area estimations are developed to manage this flaw of the path. Small area estimation improved the direct survey estimates by borrowing strength from the census data and at the same time by using historical data from consecutiv ...

Abstract:
... Public transit stations are places that are known to generate opportunities for crime. By spatially integrating crime data, smart card data and census data along with information from OpenStreetMap and Queensland Rail, we apply multilevel negative binomial regression models to examine the role of passenger presence on the three most common types of crime at train stations in Brisbane, Australia. T ...

Abstract:
... There is growing concern about the evolution of working conditions for employees on European farms. In the new Common Agriculture Policy (CAP), financial support to farmers will soon be subject to a social conditionality clause. As a result of this change in CAP regulations, in this paper we ask if the need for specific advice can already be foreseen? Examining recent investigations that focused o ...

Abstract:
... AIM: Temperate marine systems globally are warming at accelerating rates, facilitating the poleward movement of warm‐water species, which are tropicalizing higher‐latitude reefs. While temperature plays a key role in structuring species distributions, less is known about how species’ early life stages are responding to warming‐induced changes in preferred nursery habitat availability. We aim to id ...

The dataset combines and aggregate five data types of the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area in a polygon GIS shapefile with 79 three-digit postcode areas, and a csv file, including the outcome of an origin-destination analysis. The dataset area includes 1661 residential zones (“wijken”, in the terminology used by the Dutch Central Bureau for Statistics) of the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area (AMA), and the ...

Abstract:
... How does subjective well-being depend on the fate of others when a covariate shock strikes? We address this question by providing novel evidence on the impact of shock-induced damages experienced by individuals and their reference group on life satisfaction. We do so by examining the case of pastoralists in Mongolia, who faced a once-in-50-years winter disaster. Our identification strategy exploit ...

... Green alley programs, increasingly promoted by cities in North America, generally aim at transforming alleys into green infrastructure, ensuring ecosystem services, enhancing road safety and allowing appropriation by local residents. Yet, there is a dearth of fine-grained research on locational patterns and characteristics of green alleys. We seek to assess the outcomes of a green alley program in ...

Abstract:
... The intensity of interactions among tree individuals in forests is regulated by distance and time. However, few studies have considered the variability of neighborhood competition with varying spatial and temporal scales simultaneously. Based on census data of a 50-ha plot on Barro Colorado Island (BCI) during 1981–2015, we analyzed the variation in the relationship between the neighborhood intera ...

Abstract:
... China is the world’s top water consumer and CO₂ emitter. The government has deployed Three Red Lines (TRLs) to improve water security by 2030 and committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2060. China’s industries, which account for half of national CO₂ emissions and >20% water withdrawals, is key to decarbonization and water conservation. However, there remains a lack of consensus regarding whet ...

Abstract:
... Investment in park green space can improve the quality of life for urban residents but has also been linked to green gentrification. Investments in informal green space have been proposed as means for improving green access while minimizing the risk of displacement. Very little empirical research, however, has examined the differential impacts of park and non-park green space investments in the br ...

CONTEXT: Existing demographic models of California condors have not simultaneously considered individual condor movement paths, the distribution and juxtaposition of release sites, habitat components, or the spatial distribution of threats. OBJECTIVES: Our objectives were to develop a dynamic spatially explicit and individual-based model (IBM) of California condor demography and to evaluate its ab ...

Abstract:
... Recently, though some of the developing countries have been experiencing urbanization at a rapid pace, India is far behind them. Historically, a hefty proportion of India's urban population lived in large cities. However, the latest Census period (2001–2011) showed that small towns (population less than 0.1 million) such as Census towns had contributed around 30 % of the country's urban growth. In ...
... Remote sensing-based crop yield estimation methods rely on vegetation indices, which depend on the availability of the number of observations during the year, influencing the value of the derived crop yield. In the present study, a robust yield estimation method was improved for estimating the yield of corn, winter wheat, sunflower, and rapeseed in Hungary for the period 2000–2020 using 16 vegetat ...

Abstract:
... Numerous studies in the U.S. have made estimates of the RSV burden among adults that vary widely due to differences in methodology, reliance on influenza surveillance, which does not adequately capture all RSV clinical symptoms, and lack of diagnostic methods to identify RSV when viral loads are low. Nevertheless, accurate burden estimates can inform healthcare planning, resource allocation and po ...
... Pectis imberbis is an endangered plant found in the Madrean Archipelago ecoregion of southern Arizona. Numerous, potentially interacting stressors, such as drought, shifting fire regimes, invasive species, and grazing by domesticated and wild ungulates, affect this species and region. We used Integral Projection Models (IPMs) to describe dynamics of the largest documented P. imberbis population. W ...

Abstract:
... Potential suitable habitats for relict species are facing critical reductions due to intensified anthropogenic disturbances and climate change. These facts not only pose new challenges, but also call for a paradigm shift for the effective conservation of relict plant species. We investigated in situ population structures and regeneration status under varying management scenarios for Pseudolarix am ...

Abstract:
... The study of community spatial structure is central to understanding diversity patterns over space and species co‐occurrence at local scales. Although most analytical approaches consider horizontal and vertical dimensions separately, in this study we introduce a three‐dimensional spatial analysis that simultaneously includes horizontal and vertical species associations. Using tree census data (200 ...
