Location Quotient EIO-LCA Method for Carbon Emission Analysis
2012Promoting environmentally conscious energy policies to reduce carbon emissions is a mutual duty of the international community. Several cities or government regions have implemented strategies and means to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. New efforts focus on introducing green policies, which reduce the largest contributors of the carbon footprint in ...

Location Quotients, Ambient Populations, and the Spatial Analysis of Crime in Vancouver, Canada [PDF]
This paper uses the location quotient, a common measurement from economic geography and regional economics, to capture the specialization of criminal activity in Vancouver, Canada. Location quotients have barely been introduced into criminological research, yet they provide additional insight into crime analysis not available using crime counts and ...

The Location Quotient – Assembly and application of methodological enhancements [PDF]
The location quotient is an easy to use and often used indicator for identifying the clustering of industries, even though it struggles with some problems. This paper assembles different kinds of enhancements of the coefficient taken from the literature, which offer improvements regarding both the accurateness of the quotient and the interpretation of ...

Location quotients, export industries and shift-share analysis
1996Identification of export industries and forecasting growth potentials of those industries for a specific region are the most important procedures in the empirical analysis of a regional economy. If we have sufficient data of input-output relations as in the case of quite a number of regions (states) in Japan, the identification of export industries is ...

Inferences for Selected Location Quotients with Applications to Health Outcomes. [PDF]
Location quotient (LQ) is an index frequently used in geography and economics to measure the relative concentration of activities. This quotient is calculated in a variety of ways depending on which group to use as a reference. Here, we focus on simultaneous inference for the ratios of the individual proportions to the overall proportion based on ...

Flegg location quotients and estimation of regional economic flows: the Italian case
Spatial Economic AnalysisThe Flegg’s Location Quotient (FLQ) is an indirect method for estimating absorption coefficients in regional input-output matrices. While effective, it requires careful control of its delta parameter. This study proposes a method to avoid arbitrary parameter assignments when regional output is unknown but value added is known, as in Italy. The approach
