Understanding inter-city travelers’ weekend daily mobilities, noise, and psycho-physiological stress: Evidence from residents with cross-city work-residence arrangements
Capturing mobile, situational, and multi-dimensional tourist experience: An integrated approach
Inspired by the critical and mobility turns in tourism studies, this article provides a conceptualisation of understanding tourist experiences on the move, along with an integrated methodology for tracking mobile tourist experiences. It argues that tourist experience is mobile and situational. Multi-dimensional aspects of tourist experience evolve and interact during their journey. Based on recent theoretical and methodological advancements, this…
Understanding sensescapes and restorative effects of nature-based destinations: A Mixed-Methods Approach
Nature is restorative for people suffering from stress and mental fatigues. While studies advocate to investigate restorative effects of nature from a multi-sensory perspective, this study also reveals mechanisms of how various aspects of sensescapes differentially influence visitors' restorative experience in nature, especially with visitors' different degrees of reduced outdoor exposure during the Covid-19 pandemic. Using a mixed-methods approa…
As If Heaven Was Warning: Omens and Interpretations in Shen Yue’s Song shu 宋書
Propagating omens constituted a crucial strategy to bolster a dynasty's claim of political legitimacy in early medieval China. While it was believed that Heaven indicated its approbation or reproach of the ruler through omens, in the fifth and sixth centuries, when rival states fought with weapons and words, how to interpret signs and understand Heaven's will became a contentious issue. A "semiotic warfare" was waged, where the Northern Wei and i…
Understanding tourist experiences of sounds at nature-based destinations: From a relational perspective
This study incorporates a relational approach to investigating the dynamics and complexity of how tourists interact with diverse sounds as they are mobile while visiting nature-based destinations. Using a mixed-methods approach, this study combined in-situ photos and videos, real-time portable sound sensing, GPS tracking, wristband wearing, and in-depth interviews among 34 participants during their one-day trip to Mount Huangshan, China. The stud…

The cities of Sanya and Harbin in China were selected as study sites, and 54 retired tourists who engaged in annual s…
Audible Empire: Musical Orthodoxy and Spectacle in the Sui Dynasty
After conquering the Chen in 589, the Sui became a powerful empire that ruled over both the northern and southern regions, a vast territory that featured distinct regional cultures and customs. To foster an impression of political unity, the Sui court initiated a series of projects aimed at implementing central control over remote areas and reconciling interests of different cultural groups. This ideology of concordia discors found no better aven…
The effects of activity-related contexts on individual sound exposures: A time–geographic approach to soundscape studies
Noise is an ever-growing problem in cities. Conventional noise mitigation approaches may not necessarily control noise pollution, since whether a sound is perceived as noise is largely influenced by its specific contexts. Based on an activity-centric framework, this study examines the effects of activity-related contexts and measured sound levels based on individuals’ sound evaluations as they undertake daily activities at different geographic lo…
Living with urban sounds: Understanding the effects of human mobilities on individual sound exposure and psychological health
Understanding noise exposure, noise annoyance, and psychological stress: Incorporating individual mobility and the temporality of the exposure-effect relationship
The Epistolary Self and Psychological Warfare: Tuoba Tao's 拓跋燾 (408–452, r. 423–452) Letters and His Southern Audience
The Northern Wei dynasty (386–534) unified north China in the fifth century CE and stood as a powerful rival to the Liu Song dynasty (420–479) in the south. As military campaigns and diplomatic exchange between the two dynasties became more frequent, both courts strove to deploy a variety of strategies to prevail in the competitions of political authority and legitimacy. This article examines the northern emperor Tuoba Tao's (408–452, r. 423–452)…
Understanding the relationships among individual-based momentary measured noise, perceived noise, and psychological stress: A geographic ecological momentary assessment (Gema) approach
Seasonal mobility and well-being of older people: The case of ‘Snowbirds’ to Sanya, China
Retired Tibetan migrants’ adaptation experiences in Chengdu, China
Diverse types of mobility have emerged in contemporary China, among which consumption-led ethnic retired migrants have received little academic attention. This study addresses the seasonal mobility of retired Tibetan migrants who previously had careers in governmental and public sectors in Tibet. After retirement, they purchase second-home apartments in Chengdu for health and leisure reasons. Through semistructured interviews, nonparticipant obse…
