Spatialization of electricity consumption of China using saturation-corrected DMSP-OLS data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, 2014
Abstract Electricity is one of the most important components in energy consumption, which is directly related to economic growth, CO2 emission and global warming. This research intends to estimate spatial distribution of electricity consumption in China, the largest developing country, and analyze the temporal and spatial change of electricity ...

iSEAM: Improving the Blooming Effect Adjustment for DMSP-OLS Nighttime Light Images by Considering Spatial Heterogeneity of Blooming Distance

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
The longest archive makes DMSP-OLS nighttime light (NTL) images unparalleled in relevant time series studies. However, these studies have been constrained by the blooming effect.

The Political U: New Evidence on the Economic Costs of Hybrid Regimes

open access: yesEconomics &Politics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent research establishes a positive causal effect from democracy to income, although this evidence relies mostly on binary regime classifications. We extend the identification framework of Acemoglu et al. (2019) to a classification that distinguishes democracies, autocracies, and hybrid regimes for about 170 countries over 1960–2024.

Delineating urban, suburban and rural areas using Landsat and DMSP-OLS night-time images Case Study of Hyderabad, India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The number and size of urban settlements are increasing in all the continents of the world at a rapid pace. Urban sprawl is associated not only with changes in landcover and area, but also ecological, climate and social transformations.
