Scaling inequity
New Driving Force for TFP
This study explores the impact of importing intermediate digital input (IDI) on total factor productivity (TFP). Using panel data from the World Input–Output Database (WIOD) covering 43 countries and 56 industries during 2000–2014, we find that importing IDI significantly contributes to TFP growth. To address potential endogeneity, this study employs an instrumental variable (IV) approach that uses import tariffs on IDI and import‐weighted exchan…

Digital Product Imports and Markups
This paper examines the impact of digital product imports on multi‐product markups. Using Chinese micro enterprise data, we find that digital product imports significantly enhance multi‐product markups, and the extent of the positive effect on the markups varies according to product ranking. Compared with non‐core products, digital product imports have a more pronounced promoting effect on the markups of core products. Exploring possible mechanis…

Coupling dynamics of urban flood resilience in china from 2012 to 2022
The Environment-Institution-Infrastructure-Agent (EIFA) framework was developed as the conceptual framework. • The commonly used network analysis methodology was refined to more accurately analyze correlation networks. • The first national-scale and long-term analysis of China's urban flood resilience coupling dynamics were provided. • 639 cities were evaluated for the multi-factor coupling effect of China's urban flood resilience. Urban flooding…
Precise mitigation strategies for urban heat island effect in Hong Kong's new towns using automated machine learning
Integrated multi-source data for comprehensive quantification of the built environment. • shown the spatial distribution of built environment's impact on LST. • Dominant factors of urban heat islands show spatial heterogeneity in Hong Kong New Towns. • Urban woodland is the most influential factor on land surface temperature. New town developments aim to enhance the spatial layout and quality of living environments in metropolitan areas. These ar…
Digital platform-based conceptual framework for food environment research in China
China has dedicated significant efforts to preventing obesity, but the rising prevalence of overweight and obesity remains a pressing public health issue. Therefore, unique solutions are required to address this challenge in China. As a research priority, the food environment plays a pivotal role in addressing overweight and obesity. However, research on this topic in China lags behind that in other developed countries, and the conflicting global…
Understanding typhoon-induced vegetation loss and potential ecosystem disservices from land use zonings perspective in high-density Hong Kong
Divergent responses of subtropical evergreen and deciduous forest carbon cycles to the summer 2022 drought
Ongoing shifts in climate, especially extreme drought, is posing considerable threats to the forest carbon uptake worldwide. In China, summer 2022 was the warmest and driest since the beginning of meteorological measurements. This study synthesized the tower-based carbon fluxes and climate data from two subtropical evergreen and deciduous forest ecosystems to investigate the effects of such summer drought. Interestingly, the net ecosystem product…
Socioeconomic disparities in cooling and warming efficiencies of urban vegetation and impervious surfaces
A Seasonal Resilience Index to Evaluate the Impacts of Super Typhoons on Urban Vegetation in Hong Kong
Urban vegetation plays a vital role in developing sustainable cities via essential urban ecoservices. Potential threats, however, from natural disturbances to urban vegetation and its resilience remain unclear at local scales. Taking the super typhoon Mangkhut in 2018 as an example, this study aimed to develop a resilience index to evaluate the impacts of super typhoons on urban vegetation in Hong Kong at the species level. The typhoon impacts an…
New driving force for China’s import growth
This paper investigates the role of cross‐border e‐commerce on China's import growth, using the promulgation of cross‐border e‐commerce‐related policies since 2012 as a quasi‐natural experiment and using the ‘Cross‐border E‐commerce Retail Import Commodity List’ to identify cross‐border e‐commerce industries. Our difference‐in‐difference results show that cross‐border e‐commerce has significantly boosted China's import growth. Dynamic effects sho…
