Convergence and the Effects of Spatial Interaction

Niebuhr, Annekatrin - HWWA Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung - 2001

Since the beginning of the 1990s, the issue of income convergence has received considerable attention in economic research. Although a vast number of empirical studies has emerged, evidence on the role of spatial interaction is still rather scarce. The present paper is an attempt to provide...

Restricted random labeling: testing for between-group interaction after controlling for joint population and within-group spatial structure

Kronenfeld, Barry; Leslie, Timothy - In: Journal of Geographical Systems 17 (2015) 1, pp. 1-28

Statistical measures of spatial interaction between multiple types of entities are commonly assessed against a null model of either toroidal shift (TS), which controls for spatial structure of individual subpopulations, or random labeling (RL), which controls for spatial structure of the joint...

Central Government's Infrastructure Investment across Chinese Regions: A Dynamic Spatial Panel Data Approach

Zheng, Xinye; Li, Fanghua; Song, Shunfeng; Yu, Yihua - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2013

This study employs spatial panel techniques to examine determinants of regional allocation of infrastructure investment made by the central government. Using a sample of 31 Chinese provinces over the 2001-2008 period, we derived four major empirical findings. First, there exist substantial...

Localisation et intensité des prélèvements de bois de feu autour de Bamako (Mali) : une approche par un modèle d'interaction spatiale

Gazull, Laurent; Gautier, Denis; Raton, Gwenaëlle - In: Revue d'économie régionale et urbaine avril (2013) 2, pp. 297-316

In sub-saharian countries, fuelwood is the main energy source used by rural and urban dwellers. The increasing demand from cities threatens the sustainability of nearby forest resources. In this context, the understanding of fuelwood supply areas is a major issue for the sustainable management...

A Novel Method for Simulating Urban Population Potential Based on Urban Patches: A Case Study in Jiangsu Province, China

Dong, Nan; Yang, Xiaohuan; Cai, Hongyan; Wang, Liming - In: Sustainability 7 (2015) 4, pp. 3984-4003

Urban population potential is a good measure of urban spatial interactions. However, previous studies often assigned population data to the administrative point of the government or the centroid of the region, such as the county, ward or village. In these cases, two problems exist: (1) the zone...

Spatial interaction models for biomass consumption in the United States

Wang, Sicong; Wang, Shifeng - In: Energy 36 (2011) 11, pp. 6555-6558

Five alternative spatial interaction patterns of biomass consumption in the United States in 2005 are compared using the spatial autoregressive model. The influences of geographical locations, biomass price and income on biomass consumption are translated into the spatial weight matrices of...
