We also estimate the dynamic effects of up to 22 lagged population inflows from Wuhan and other Hubei cities, the epicenter of the 2019-nCoV outbreak, on the destination cities' new infection cases. keywords: cases; cities; city; effect; hubei; license; population; preprint; wuhan; wuhan lockdown cache: cord-317465-ucwuptgg.txt plain text: cord-317465-ucwuptgg.txt item: #33 of 42 id: cord-318301-gd43bacv author: Paul, Arpan title: A critical review of liveability approaches and their dimensions date: 2020-10-02 words: 2297 flesch: 29 summary: i Teoreticheskoi Fiziki Evaluation of the life satisfaction and subjective happiness scales with Mexican American high school and college students Heuristic approaches to urban liveability Study on analysis model of key influencing factors of urban environment liveability Liveable city: an approach to pedestrianization through tactical urbanism Assessment and determinants of satisfaction with urban liveability in China key: cord-318301-gd43bacv authors: Paul, Arpan; Sen, Joy title: A critical review of liveability approaches and their dimensions date: 2020-10-02 journal: Geoforum DOI: 10.1016/j.geoforum.2020.09.008 sha: doc_id: 318301 cord_uid: gd43bacv The last few decades have witnessed increasing trends in urbanization as a global phenomenon. keywords: approaches; cities; city; global; liveability; living; research cache: cord-318301-gd43bacv.txt plain text: cord-318301-gd43bacv.txt item: #34 of 42 id: cord-326519-1r3jdffu author: Orlova, Galina title: City Archipelago: Mapping (post)lockdown Moscow through its heterogeneities date: 2020-07-11 words: 3461 flesch: 51 summary: From maps of pandemic Moscow we can see how the concentration of the virus shifts from the prosperous centre and South-West, where the epidemic began, to the northern, eastern and south- Techno-political failures of Moscow lockdown are full of heterogeneities. keywords: capital; city; hall; island; isolation; masks; moscow; pandemic; quarantine; russian; self; state cache: cord-326519-1r3jdffu.txt plain text: cord-326519-1r3jdffu.txt item: #35 of 42 id: cord-330511-aiq6ejcq author: Acuna-Zegarra, Manuel Adrian title: The SARS-CoV-2 epidemic outbreak: a review of plausible scenarios of containment and mitigation for Mexico date: 2020-03-31 words: 9191 flesch: 54 summary: Figure 11 shows that when T θ = 15 days, regardless of the time θ it takes to obtain the contact rate reduction, the final cumulative incidence is very low for large reductions in contact rates (q 1 small) or high for low reductions in contact rate (q 1 large).

The contributions of our research are manifold: 1) it reveals supply side insights of local government planners, managers, and decision makers on the challenges of urban greenspace provision; 2) it examines an important knowledge gap in the research to date with understanding the quandaries of non-capital, mid-sized cities experiencing rapid growth; and 3) it reveals the range of factors that shape urban greenspace and how they operate in this context. keywords: cities; city; community; development; factors; governance; government; greenspace; greenspace provision; land; parkland; parks; planning; provision; resources; surrey; urban cache: cord-336993-2plgjn2d.txt plain text: cord-336993-2plgjn2d.txt item: #37 of 42 id: cord-348435-z1c16thl author: Jiricka-Pürrer, Alexandra title: City tourism pre- and post-covid-19 pandemic – Messages to take home for climate change adaptation and mitigation? date: 2020-09-30 words: 6212 flesch: 44 summary: The paper presents the status quo on climate change impacts on city tourism in Austria describing the impacts by air travel and a short stay on the greenhouse gas emissions and the changing conditions in the city.
