Population density varies widely among U.S. metro areas. A simple, static general equilibrium model demonstrates that moderate differences in metro areas’ consumption amenities can cause extremely large differences in their population density. Such amenities are more strongly capitalized into housing prices than into wages. Empirical results suggest that amenities do indeed help to support high...

We consider the dynamics between population and spatial distribution networks for the 200 largest urban agglomerations. Population dynamics are considered from 1950 to 2010 and distribution networks are analyzed in terms of vehicular transportation infrastructure. We observe that the growth of large urban agglomerations, in terms of population density, has slowed down in the second half of the ...

Cities are at the centre of Asia-Pacific’s economic growth and development. They provide the environment and social milieu in which more and more people live. Urban areas in the region, though containing around 42 percent of its population, account for 80 percent of the region’s GDP1. Urbanization in Asia and the Pacific is proceeding at a scale and speed unprecedented in human history. It took...

Beginning January 2012, a humane method of dog population management using a Catch-Neuter-Vaccinate-Release (CNVR) program was implemented in Dhaka City, Bangladesh as part of the national rabies control program. To enable this program, the size and distribution of the free-roaming dog population needed to be estimated. We present the results of a dog population survey and a pilot assessment of...

INTRODUCTIONThe distribution of Amphimedon queenslandica is patchy on coral reefs in the Great Barrier Reef, with small, localized populations detected in shallow, still water reef-flat environments. A. queenslandica is a spermcast spawner, in which fertilization occurs internally. Sperm presumably originate from neighboring reproductive individuals within the population. The ability to genotyp...

This paper analyzes the link between rising city crime rates and urban  ight. Each additional reported crime is associated with a roughly one-person decline in city population. Almost all of the crime-related population decline is attributable to increased out-migration rather than a decrease in new arrivals. Households that leave the city because of crime are much more likely to remain within...

IntroductionThe born-global literature sits at the crossroads between fields of entrepreneurship and international business. Early research characterised firms by having rapidly internationalised, within a few years their inception, as well generated large proportion revenue from foreign sales (for example, Chetty & Campbell-Hunt, 2004; Knight
