Green Subsidies and the Promotion of Eco‐Social Policy in Germany and the United States

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The climate crisis poses an acute threat to humanity. Eco‐social policy can help mitigate this threat, but eco‐social policy and the green transition are expensive. Our paper contributes to a better understanding of the role that green subsidies play in advancing eco‐social politics and policies.

Modifiable Areal Unit Problem on Network Topological Measures for Public Transit Flows

Transactions in GIS, Volume 30, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Transit flows can provide useful insights into urban mobility patterns and dynamics. Generally, the transit flows between the origin and destination locations are aggregated into areal units for statistical analysis. A well‐known issue is the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP), where its sensitivity depends on the basic areal units.

Mapping ridership using crowdsourced cycling data

Journal of Transport Geography, 2016
AbstractCycling volumes are necessary to understand what influences ridership and are essential for safety studies. Traditional methods of data collection are expensive, time consuming, and lack spatial and temporal detail. New sources have emerged as a result of crowdsourced data from fitness apps, allowing cyclists to track routes using GPS enabled ...

A spatio-temporal node-place-ridership model for classifying metro station areas: The case of Shenzhen, China

Journal of Transport and Land Use
The node-place model has been widely applied for uncovering the coordination between transit network and land use but overlooks the critical role of ridership and its temporal variations. Focusing on the dynamic nature of urban activities and ridership,

Transit Ridership of Dhaka Metro Rail

Bangladesh Journal of Public Administration, 2022
This study focuses on the future ridership of Dhaka’s under-construction metro rail. Dhaka offers an exceptional context with the world’s highest density of population. How the sociocultural condition of the city’s population would impact the future ridership of the metro rail was an interesting question. The data for the study were collected through a
