Joint Spatial Analysis of Low Birth Weight and Stunting in West African Countries by Ezra Gayawan, Nihinlolawa Grace Alo

“…Method Data set for the study was sourced from the Demographic and Health Surveys conducted in fourteen West African countries. We used a Bayesian shared component model allows us to split the spatial surface into those specific to each of the outcomes and one shared by the two, with inference based on a Bayesian approximation procedure through the integrated nested Laplace approximation.  …”

Neural representation of geoinformation in the human brain: affected by abstraction levels and spatial scales by Tianyu Yang, Bo Zhao, Song Gao, Weihua Dong

“…Prior studies have been constrained by methodologies, and how the human brain represents geoinformation with different levels of abstraction across geographic scales remains unclear. In this study, we conducted a cognitive experiment using functional magnetic resonance imaging with thirteen participants to explore the neural representations of geoinformation abstraction levels and spatial scales. …”

Land Use, Spatial Planning, and Their Influence on Carbon Emissions: A Comprehensive Review by Yongmei Wang, Xiangmu Jin

“…The results showed the following: (1) The number of articles published reveals an increasing trend, especially after 2009, with China, the USA, and England paying more attention to it. (2) Studies mainly focus on four key research topics: the impacts of land use and land cover change (LULCC) on carbon stocks, the relationship between land use structure/spatial form and carbon emissions, and the paths and schemes for low-carbon spatial planning. (3) Studies usually use upscale, homoscale, and downscale routes to correlate carbon emissions to land and then use comparative analysis, regression analysis, spatial analysis, and scenario simulation methods to conduct further analyses. (4) Studies have yielded some consensus: human land use can influence carbon emissions through LULCC, land use structure and spatial form, and spatial planning can reduce carbon emissions. …”
