Assessing Reliability of Chinese Geotagged Social Media Data for Spatiotemporal Representation of Human Mobility

Journal Article

Understanding the space-time dynamics of human activities is essential in studying human security issues such as climate change impacts, pandemic spreading, or urban sustainability. Geotagged social media posts provide an open and space-time continuous...

Multiscale Effects of Multimodal Public Facilities Accessibility on Housing Prices Based on MGWR: A Case Study of Wuhan, China

Journal Article

The layout of public service facilities and their accessibility are important factors affecting spatial justice. Previous studies have verified the positive influence of public facilities accessibility on house prices; however, the spatial scale of the...

Long-term solutions for China's heat and drought

Journal Article

Since July, China has experienced the most severe heatwave ever recorded in the world, compounded by the worst drought since record-keeping began in the country six decades ago (1). The areas hardest hit by the combined heatwave and drought fall along...

Variation in and Factors Associated With US County-Level Cancer Mortality, 2008-2019

Journal Article

Importance

The association between cancer mortality and risk factors may vary by geography. However, conventional methodological approaches rarely account for this variation.

Objective

To identify geographic variations in the association between risk...

Exploring the spatial disparity of home-dwelling time patterns in the USA during the COVID-19 pandemic via Bayesian inference

Journal Article

In this study, we aim to reveal hidden patterns and confounders associated with policy implementation and adherence by investigating the home-dwelling stages from a data-driven perspective via Bayesian inference with weakly informative priors and by...

Black Businesses Matter: A Longitudinal Study of Black-Owned Restaurants in the COVID-19 Pandemic Using Geospatial Big Data

Journal Article

Black communities in the United States have been disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic; however, few empirical studies have been conducted to examine the conditions of Black-owned businesses in the United States during this challenging time...

Unfolding community homophily in U.S. metropolitans via human mobility

Journal Article

As described in the proverb “birds of a feather flock together”, the term homophily narrates the principle that stronger spatial interactions tend to be formed among locations with similar characteristics. Taking advantage of mobility networks derived...

A data-driven perspective for sensing urban functional images: Place-based evidence in Hong Kong

Journal Article

Urban life involves a large variety of urban functions and human activities in a dense context due to the inherent nature of cities. Although technical frameworks have been previously proposed to understand urban functions and activities, there are...

Short- and medium-term impacts of strict anti-contagion policies on non-COVID-19 mortality in China

Journal Article

The effects of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) public health policies on non-COVID-19-related mortality are unclear. Here, using death registries based on 300 million Chinese people and a difference-in-differences design, we find that China’s strict...

Measurement of contagion spatial spread probability in public places: A case study on COVID-19

Journal Article

The scale and scope of the COVID-19 epidemic have highlighted the need for timely control of viral transmission. This paper proposed a new spatial probability model of epidemic infection using an improved Wasserstein distance algorithm and Monte Carlo...

Heat waves and road traffic collisions in Alabama, United States

Journal Article

The effects of heat waves on traffic collisions require investigation to improve traffic safety during extreme heat events. A time-stratified case-crossover design was used to examine associations between heat waves and traffic collisions in Alabama...
