Spatio-temporal patterns of urbanization in the Kolkata Urban Agglomeration: A dynamic spatial territory-based approach

Sustainable cities and society, 2021
This study analyzes the spatio-temporal patterns of urban growth for the Kolkata Urban Agglomeration (KUA) in eastern India using dynamic spatial territorial extents and compares the results with existing popular hypotheses of urbanization patterns ...

Decarbonizing China’s Urban Agglomerations

Annals of the American Association of Geographers, 2018
China’s urban agglomerations contribute 64 percent to China’s energy-related CO2 emissions and thus play a vital role in determining the future of climate change.

Water-energy nexus within urban agglomeration: An assessment framework combining the multiregional input-output model, virtual water, and embodied energy

, 2021
With rapid urban expansion and economic development, water shortages and high energy emissions at the regional scale pose critical challenges for urban agglomerations, resulting in quite intricate water-energy nexus.

Performance of air temperature from ERA5-Land reanalysis in coastal urban agglomeration of Southeast China.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Near-surface air temperature is an important indicator of climate change and extreme events. ERA5-Land reanalysis products feature finer spatial and temporal resolutions, and have been widely adopted in global climate-related research.

Search, Sorting, and Urban Agglomeration

Journal of Labor Economics, 2001
Studies have suggested that urban agglomeration enhances productivity by facilitating the firm‐worker matching process. This article develops a model that formalizes this notion and demonstrates that, when firm capital and worker skill are complementary in production, urban agglomeration will tend to generate more efficient, yet segregated matches.

Long-Run Urban Growth with Agglomeration Economies [PDF]

Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 1987
It is widely recognized that agglomeration economies are a crucially important factor in explaining the existence and growth of urban areas, and therefore should be explicitly taken into consideration in long-run urban growth analysis. Once such economies are introduced, however, the urban economy tends to diverge from a steady state equilibrium and ...
