We investigate empirically how national-level CO2 emissions are affected by urbanization and environmental policy. use statistical modeling to explore panel data on annual from 80 countries for the period 1983-2005. Random- fixed-effects models indicate that, global average, urbanization-emission elasticity value is 0.95 (i.e., a 1% increase in correlates with 0.95% emissions). Several regions display statistically significant, positive fixed- random-effects models: lower-income Europe,...
Despite ongoing interest in deploying information and communication technologies (ICTs) for sustainable development, their use climate change adaptation remains understudied. Based on the integration of theory existing literature ICTs we present an analytical model conceptualizing contribution to adaptation, a framework evaluating ICT success. We apply four case studies early warning systems managing extreme events Latin American Caribbean countries. propose that can support through enabling...
The global carbon emissions budget over the next decades depends critically on choices made by fast-growing emerging economies. Few studies exist, however, that develop country-specific energy system integration insights can inform economies in this decision-making process. High spatial- and temporal-resolution power planning is central to evaluating decarbonization scenarios, but obtaining required data models be cost prohibitive, especially for researchers low, lower-middle income Here, we...
Despite substantial gains in the past few decades, 550 million people sub-Saharan Africa still lack access to electricity. Rural areas present largest electrification challenge, with levels below 12% most countries. Public rural efforts, where undertaken, have generally effected slow and limited change. Further, motivate investment required for traditional large-scale generation transmission projects, strong demand electricity services is required, this not easily demonstrated African...
The increased penetration of uncertain and variable renewable energy presents various resource operational electric grid challenges1. Micro-level (household small commercial) demand-side flexibility could be a cost-effective strategy to integrate high penetrations wind solar energy, but literature field deployments exploring the necessary information communication technologies (ICTs) are scant. This paper an exploratory framework for enabling driven through Internet Things (IoT),...
It is widely accepted that electricity an important element for improving levels of human development and wealth creation in rural areas. Yet, little research has explored the conditions under which electrification could lead to post-electrification. Using Kenya as a case study, this paper uses natural capital (NC) infrastructural (IC) data compare enabling environments (and persistent demand electricity) We use multiple spatial sets create three different metrics NC IC them micro-enterprise...
Renewable energy provides an increasingly significant contribution to power production around the globe. The variable and uncertain nature of certain renewable sources, however, requires increased grid flexibility reliably match electricity supply with demand. On average, wind accounts for 20% Nicaragua's total generation, can produce up 50% within a given hour. Under regime fuel-oil generators are main source flexibility. Information-driven flexibility, such as improved demand prediction,...
6616 Background: CML patients may develop PE as an adverse event of some tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapies. requires medical care and compromise the course treatment. The objective this retrospective study is to estimate impact on TKI therapy in patients. Methods: MarketScan Ingenix Impact databases (2001-2009) were combined identify adult (ICD-9CM code 205.1x) who received ≥1 prescription any before index date had continuous enrollment ≥6 months prior after date, defined 30 days...
Central America has the highest penetration of non-hydro renewable energy in Western hemisphere. Grid adequacy evaluations are critical for such countries due to accelerating demand growth, constrained financial resources, and inherent variability renewables. A regional interconnection (SIEPAC) was constructed region allow cooperation coordination between national grids. This study calculates Loss Load Expectation (LOLE) Effective Carrying Capacities (ELCC) three connected SIEPAC (Nicaragua,...
