While the productivity gains associated with the geographic concentration of industry (i.e., localisation) are by now well-documented, little work has considered how those gains are distributed across individual workers. This article offers evidence on the connection between total employment and...

An agricultural production function is estimated using a Chinese county-level dataset along with associated geographic information. County-specific output-input elasticities are computed using the geographically weighted regression (GWR) and mapped with the geographical information system (GIS)....

At present, about 80 million people in Bangladesh are at risk of losing their health and having a sharply reduced life expectancy as a result of exposure to excessive arsenic through drinking water from tube wells. In this article, we build a multi-objective mixed-integer optimisation model,...

In this research note, the follower location problem where the customers' choice is based on an attraction function is analysed. The attraction function depends on both the distance between customers and facilities, and the characteristics (quality) of the facilities. Customers at each node...

In this article we test for dynamic inter- and intra-industry externalities on the urban level in the Netherlands. We argue that previous contributions might be sensitive to untested spatial and sectoral composition effects of urban data. We conclude that research results are better controlled...

We establish classical business cycles, for New Zealand's 14 regions and aggregate national activity. Regional cycles rarely die of old age but are terminated by particular events. Concordance statistic measures show significant contemporaneous associations between the New Zealand cycle and 11...

We describe a tops-down method for regionalising results from a detailed national CGE model. Using a 500-industry U.S. model, we generate macro and industry effects of removing major U.S. import restraints and translate these effects into employment results for U.S. states. Our results indicate...
