Spatial Effects of Urban Agglomeration on Energy Efficiency: Evidence from China
TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper constructed the spatial-structure index of urban agglomerations in China and found an inverse relationship between the spatial structure of UAs and energy efficiency: the higher the concentration degree of factors, the lower the energy efficiency.
Analysis of Wind Characteristics and Wind Energy Potential in Coastal Area of Bangladesh: Case Study - Cox's Bazar
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed wind characteristics and assessment of wind energy potential, using the wind speed data measured during the period 2002-2011 at 10 m height of Cox's Bazar, the longest sea beach of the world, in the southeast of Bangladesh, subjected to 2-parameter Weibull analysis.

I Just Ran Two Million Regressions
TL;DR: In this article, instead of analyzing the extreme bounds of the estimates of the coefficient of a particular variable, the authors analyze the entire distribution and find that a substantial number of variables can be found to be strongly related to growth.

Religion and Economic Growth across Countries
TL;DR: The authors used international survey data on religiosity for a broad panel of countries to investigate the effects of church attendance and religious beliefs on economic growth and found that economic growth responds positively to religious beliefs, notably beliefs in hell and heaven, but negatively to church attendance.
