• Reducing car dependence in the heart of Europe: lessons from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (2017, background): “Land use and urban development crucially influence travel behaviour, mainly because they are the most important determinant of trip distance, and whether walking, cycling, and public transport are feasible (Ewing & Cervero, 2001, 2010).”
• Hedonic Price Effects of Pedestrian- and Transit-Oriented Development (2011, background): “This increase in proximity and convenience has been linked to smaller daily activity spaces, shorter daily travel distances, lower average vehicle trip rates, and fewer total vehicle miles of travel (Ewing and Cervero 2001; Ewing and Cervero 2010; Fan and Khattak 2008).”
• Testing Newman and Kenworthy’s Theory of Density and Automobile Dependence (2017, background): “These other dimensions are actually more important than density in disaggregate studies of the built environment and travel behavior (Ewing and Cervero 2010; Ewing et al. 2014c).”
• What determines rail transit passenger volume? Implications for Transit oriented development planning (2017, background): “Ewing and Cervero (2010) find employment density having a great influence on commuting 53”
• Situated lifestyles: I. How lifestyles change along with the level of urbanization and what the greenhouse gas implications are—a study of Finland (2013, background): “…body of literature demonstrating how higher density offers opportunities for more efficient energy use and lower GHG emissions from transport and housing (Norman et al 2006, VandeWeghe and Kennedy 2007, Jenks and Burgess 2000, Ewing and Cervero 2010, Glaeser and Kahn 2010, Fuller and Crawford 2011).”
• Does daily commuting behavior matter to employee productivity? (2019, background): “These two instruments are strongly correlated with either the commuting distance (time) or commuting mode choice as evidenced by previous studies (Ewing and Cervero, 2010), but are unlikely to be determined by the absenteeism and job performance.”
• The Built Environment and Social Capital: A Systematic Review (2018, result): “While this is generally supported by the existing literature (Duncan et al., 2011; Lee & Moudon, 2006), a rigorous meta-analysis identified intersection density as the strongest predictor of walking (Ewing & Cervero, 2010) among many built environment parameters.”
• Accessibility in Cities: Transport and Urban Form (2017, background): “At the neighbourhood level, density, land-use mix and street design have a significant impact on the likelihood of walking (Ewing and Cervero 2010)(3).”
• Evolving Narratives of Low-Carbon Futures in Transportation (2016, background): “Ewing and Cervero (2010) indicate that more specific urban design metrics explain the proxy effect of population density.”
