This study investigates the land surface temperature (LST) distribution from thermal infrared data for analyzing the characteristics of surface coverage using the Vegetation-ImperviousSoil (VIS) approach. A set of ten images, obtained from Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper, between 2001 and 2010, were used to study the urban environmental conditions of 47 neighborhoods of Porto Alegre city, Brazil. Por...

this study attempts to investigate the relationship between pollution and economic growth for two groups of countries according to environmental kuznets curve hypothesis for a sample of 24 developing countries and 26 oecd countries over the period 1980 - 2005. then, we examine this hypothesis using modern econometrics techniques including panel co-integration and panel unit-root. the panel data...

The Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) shows the relationship between economic development, which is proxied in per capita income, and environmental quality. This study aims to view existence of EKC by arranging distribution 62 countries into four sub-samples based on income from 1992 2017. By applying panel data, model uses Error Correction Mechanism (ECM) method see effect growth quality (CO2 ...

Plastics have become an indispensable part of modern life. Although plastics, which waste after use, are recycled for the economy, they a critical problem because many cause environmental pollution and threaten It is known that use plastics has increased rapidly in parallel with increase income emerged from increasing industrialization since 1950s. According to Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC)...

This paper examines the existence of relationship between international tourist arrivals (TA), and Carbon dioxide emissions per capita (CO2) in Turkey over period 1960-2015. We also use energy (EU) GDP (GDP) as a control variables. The autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) bounds test approach was applied to analyze long-run among results confirmed validity tourism-induced Environmental Kuznets...

This study looks at the short- and long-term effects of fossil fuels, renewable energy, nuclear energy on CO2 emissions in South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries from 1982 to 2021. We assess impacts SAARC’s current anticipated use nuclear, fossil, alternative energies by testing environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis. The applied second-generation unit root tes...

Governance can help in regulating the environmental quality of any economy. Hence, present study explores effects rule law and regulatory on CO2 emissions four South Asian economies from 1996-2019, controlling renewable energy income level model. The results corroborate Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis long-run analysis but could not affect emissions. Moreover, helps reduce shows te...
