Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

Choice experiments on land managers' participation in environmental programs: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of estimate validity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Discrete choice experiments are increasingly being used to estimate land managers' willingness to accept participation in incentive‐based environmental programs. This is a specific application of discrete choice experiments: the estimation of willingness to accept for a private good (program participation) where respondents have to make trade ...

A DFIG low- and High-Voltage cascading failure through strategy based on GSC and RSC joint control

International Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems
In wind power DC transmission systems, commutation failures cause significant reactive power fluctuations at the direct current (DC) transmission end, leading to sequential changes in voltage from low to high and often causing wind turbines to disconnect

Fault ride-through of renewable energy conversion systems during voltage recovery

Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy, 2016
Asymmetrical voltage swells during recovery of a short-circuit fault lead to fluctuations in the dc-link voltage of a renewable energy conversion system (RECS), and may induce reversed power flow and even trip the RECS. This paper studies characteristics

Abstract Neighborhoods influence health in part through social processes. However, little is known about how multiple neighborhood social processes co‐occur, or about within (vs. between) neighborhood variation in social processes and health. This study asked how residents of a large public housing development describe their neighborhood and used ...
