Regional convergence and agglomeration in Argentina : a spatial panel data approach
Madariaga, Nicole; Montout, Sylvie; Ollivaud, Patrice - HAL - 2005
This paper examines the per capita income convergence process among 23 Argentinian provinces over the period 1983 … conditional convergence process between Argentinian provinces and a positive and significant impact of agglomeration variables on … growth rate. Hence, our results show that ignoring spatial distortions due to geographic proximity misleads estimations and …

Paris: a Desire Named Streetcar
Koning, Martin; Prud'Homme, Rémy; Kopp, Pierre - HAL - 2010
On the southern part of the Parisian Maréchaux' boulevards, the old bus line Petite Ceinture has been replaced by a modern tramway (T3). Simultaneously, the road-space has been narrowed by about a third. A survey conducted on 1,000 users of the T3 shows that the tramway hardly generated any...

Traffic and CO2 emissions of urban goods deliveries under contrasted scenarios of retail location and distribution
Gonzalez-Feliu, Jesus - HAL - 2010
This communication presents four contrasted and near-caricatured scenarios of retail location and distribution, and compares them on the bases of both road occupancy rates and greenhouse gas emissions. Two main families of scenarios are defined: retailing land-use scenarios, based on the...

The potential for CO2 emissions trading in transport: the case of personal vehicles and freight
Raux, Charles - HAL - 2010
Transport currently accounts for around 25-30% of global CO2 emissions and this contribution is growing rapidly. Moreover, road transport holds by far the major part in these emissions. Because of the social and political reluctance to increase fuel taxation, it is of some interest to explore...

Mitigation of CO2 emissions in 2020 : impacts of the " 20/20/20 " European policy
Stankeviciute, Loreta - HAL - 2007
The study aims to quantify the interactions between the three European objectives in the horizon of 2020: (1) the reduction of 20% of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) (2) the saving of 20% of the energy consumption and (3) the share of 20% of renewables energies in the overall energy consumption....

Modelling long-run scenarios
Hourcade, Jean-Charles - HAL - 1993
This paper intends to draw overall lessons from a long-term study on CO2 emission in France, a country with a rather low energy/GDP ration and in which transition to non-fossil based production of electricity has been achieved. More generally, it points out the importance of possible bifurcation...
