• Urban form, shrinking cities, and residential carbon emissions: Evidence from Chinese city-regions (2020, background): “As the definition and measurement of ‘shrinking cities’ within the Chinese context are still subject to debates (see for example the different numbers of shrinking cities as identified in different studies such as Yang and Dunford [23], Long and Gao [18], and Wu and Li [53]), a dummy variable may be”
• A simplified urban-extent algorithm to characterize surface urban heat islands on a global scale and examine vegetation control on their spatiotemporal variability (2019, background): “Very few studies have investigated the seasonality of the UHI on a month-by-month basis for multiple cities (Debbage and Shepherd, 2015).”
