Urban Agglomerations in European Infrastructure Networks [PDF]
Urban Studies, 1993 Infrastructure networks are often assumed to be important determinants of the economic potential of urban agglomerations. This paper addresses the position of 42 major European cities in three infrastructure networks: road, rail and air. A ranking of cities in terms of a gravity-based accesibility index is produced.

Autonomous X‐Ray Fluorescence Mapping for Nanoscale Chemical Speciation of Fine Particulate Matter
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.We present X‐AutoMap, an autonomous X‐ray fluorescence mapping framework that integrates real‐time analysis with rule‐based computer vision to selectively target chemically relevant regions. By avoiding background‐dominated areas, the method reduces acquisition time by fourfold while enabling accurate particle‐level speciation.

Defining urban agglomerations to detect agglomeration economies
, 2016 Agglomeration economies are a persistent subject of debate among economists and urban planners. Their definition turns on whether or not larger cities and regions are more efficient and more productive than smaller ones. We complement existing discussion on agglomeration economies and the urban wage premium here by providing a sensitivity analysis of ...

Urban agglomeration and innovation in developing economies
, 2022 Abstract Theory and evidence from developed economies suggests that innovation activities benefit from agglomeration economies associated with urban economic density. However, whether the same is true of developing countries has not been investigated by large-scale cross-country analysis, despite the fact that eighteen of the world’s top twenty

Corporate ESG Greenwashing: Does Regulatory Proximity Matter?
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) greenwashing undermines sustainable development, yet the influence of regulatory proximity on oversight is understudied. By introducing the “distance decay effect” from geoeconomics into ESG misconduct research and using a sample of Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2022, this study reveals a ...

Automating Sustainability: How Climate Action Unlocks the ESG Potential of Industrial Robotics
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The convergence of Industry 4.0 and global sustainability goals presents a critical paradox: while automation drives efficiency, its net impact on comprehensive environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance remains contested. This study investigates the relationship between industrial robot and country‐level ESG performance across 63
