  • Understanding the Link Between Policy Design and Distributional Impacts of Local Wind Energy Ordinances

    Open Access•Shan Zhou, Xue Gao•ARTICLE•Review of Policy Research•2026

    Zoning is one of the most widely used land use regulations in the U.S. An increasing number of local governments have adopted zoning ordinances to regulate renewable energy projects. However, there has been very limited research on the impact of this local regulatory tool. To address this research gap, this study examines the policy design features of local wind energy ordinances, and how they influence the siting of wind projects. We compile and…

  • Powering fairness in climate adaptation capabilities

    Open Access•Kester Wade, Destenie Nock et al.•ARTICLE•Energy Research & Social Science•2025•References: 1

    Assisting households with maintaining adequate energy supply is one method for improving overall quality of life. Households experiencing energy insecurity may be unable to afford to use energy for necessary services at home (e.g., unable to purchase air conditioners). Energy efficiency (EE) can reduce energy costs for low-income households–requiring less energy for essential activities. While existing research has identified the groups that are …

  • Feasibility, Acceptability, and Preliminary Efficacy of the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders in Adolescents in China

    Open Access•Mei-Rong Pan, Meirong Pan et al.•ARTICLE•Behavior Therapy•2025•References: 63

    Currently, there is a lack of cost-effective and accessible intervention resources for Chinese adolescents with emotional disorders. The Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders in Adolescents (UP-A), which aims to apply transdiagnostic treatment principles to target core dysfunctions across a range of emotional disorders with a single protocol, could fill this gap. We first modified the UP-A for use in the Chinese cu…

  • Unveiling and explaining the procedural justice in the policy design of renewable energy siting process in the United States

    Open Access•Xue Gao, Shan Zhou et al.•ARTICLE•Policy Studies Journal•2025•Cited by: 2•References: 114

    Social justice is a fundamental value in public policy, but empirically examining this intricate concept remains a persistent challenge. Recent studies have made early attempts to examine how policy design choices consider distributive justice but have overlooked how procedural justice considerations have been integrated into policy designs. Drawing on policy design and participatory governance literature, this study develops a procedural justice…

  • Revealing the “Yin-Jing” mystery veil of Platycodon grandiflorum by potentiating therapeutic effects and lung-oriented guidance property

  • Operationalizing social equity in public policy design

    Open Access•Shan Zhou, Xue Gao et al.•ARTICLE•Policy Studies Journal•2023•Cited by: 6•References: 83

    While it is widely recognized that energy injustices are prevalent in the clean energy transition process, there has been limited research attention on policy efforts aiming to mitigate these inequities. In this paper, we use solar equity policies as an empirical case study to understand how social equity considerations are conceptualized and operationalized in energy policy content. We build upon the policy design literature and code institution…

  • Hard to say goodbye

    Michael R Davidson, Xue Gao et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Politics•2023•Cited by: 3•References: 42

    The politics of international finance for coal power plants have intensified since the 2015 Paris climate agreement was negotiated. Over the past few years, Japan and South Korea have signaled their intent not to fund new coal projects overseas, leaving China and its Belt and Road Initiative as the ‘financier of last resort.’ In September 2021, China too announced its intent to stop providing finance for overseas coal projects. What accounts for …

  • Association between nutrient patterns and hyperuricemia

    Open Access•Juping Wang, Shuting Chen et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2022

    Our findings suggest that the direct effect of diet on hyperuricemia is weak, and obesity plays a critical mediating role in the relationship between diet and hyperuricemia, which confirms that a weight-loss diet such as a "Low fat and high vitamin diet" may be useful in preventing hyperuricemia

  • Examine the nexus between covid-19 and tourism

    Open Access•Jian Cheng, Cheng Jian et al.•ARTICLE•Economic Research-Ekonomska…•2022

  • To what extent does Covid-19 drive stock market volatility? A comparison between the U.S. and China

    Open Access•Xue Gao, Yixin Ren et al.•ARTICLE•Economic Research-Ekonomska…•2022

    This paper presents a novel wavelet-based quantile-on-quantile method for comparing the impact of COVID-19 on stock market volatility between the U.S. and China. Wavelet decomposition shows that the impact has stronger regularity in the lower frequency domain. Compared with oil price fluctuations, COVID-19 is the main reason for the sharp fluctuation of the U.S. stock market. Unlike China, however, the strong growth of daily new cases, which cont…

  • Valuing tourists’ willingness to pay for conserving the non-use values of marine tourism resources

    Jianhong Xiao, Min Wang et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Sustainable Tourism•2021

    The conservation of marine tourism resources based on the public’s preference for non-use values is important to the sustainable development of marine tourism. The objectives of this article are to explore the willingness to pay (WTP) for the non-use values of marine tourism resources and how such WTP differs among types of marine tourism resources in China. A contingent valuation study was undertaken at three archipelagic tourism destinations: t…

  • The Challenges of Coal Phaseout

    Xue Gao, Mario Davidson et al.•ARTICLE•Global Environmental Politics•2021•Cited by: 1•References: 5

    Global coal use must be phased out if we are to minimize temperature increases associated with climate change. Most new coal plants are being built in the Asia Pacific and rely on overseas finance, with Indonesia and Vietnam the leading recipients. However, the politics of coal plant finance are changing, with many projects cancelled in recent years. This article explores the factors that led to coal plant cancellations in Vietnam and Indonesia. …
