Summary: Publication metrics like the Hirsch index are commonly used to evaluate research productivity in academia, but may not be field-normalized. The NIH's RCR provides a more accurate comparison of author productivity between fields. In a study on academic neurosurgeons, factors such as academic rank, career duration, and sex were found to impact RCR scores, with male surgeons showing higher productivity. Overall, neurosurgeons were found to be exceptionally productive compared to other specialties and the general scientific community.

Summary: Academic citation and social attention are two different dimensions for measuring the impact of research results, and they are not correlated with each other. Factors such as research field, access type, and co-authorship influence both measures. This study quantified the increase in impact due to co-authorship in scientific articles, disaggregated by field of research and access type. The results showed that a small proportion of articles received a large portion of citations and social attention. Both citations and social attention generally increased with the number of co-authors. The advantage in citation and social attention due to collaboration was independent of access type, and the positive effects reduced as the number of co-authors increased.

Summary: This paper examines the impact of real-time pricing and load automation on residential distribution systems. The study finds that implementing real-time pricing can result in an aggregate welfare gain of 39 USD per customer and year. However, it also notes that RTP and load automation may significantly increase peak system load. Introducing a market-based demand management system can further enhance welfare gains and reduce grid investment.

Summary: Household solid fuel use is detrimental to health and the environment. The Indian government's PMUY subsidy has successfully promoted the adoption of LPG by millions of households. However, there is limited understanding of the decision-making process to reduce solid fuel use after transitioning to cleaner fuels. This study found that factors such as household wealth, social status, education level, and the prevalence of LPG use in the village are positively associated with LPG consumption and the discontinuation of solid fuel use. On the other hand, factors such as distance to LPG refill delivery, household size, and the PMUY subsidy are negatively associated with the share of LPG use.

Summary: Economic costs are a major political obstacle to investing in climate change mitigation and adaptation measures. The method of financing plays a crucial role in determining public opposition to government green investments, with debt financing being less opposed than broad-based taxes. This study suggests that credit market tools, such as green bonds and debt for climate swaps, can be politically efficient in increasing support for green financing. Carbon taxes and wealth taxes are found to be the most preferred options.

Summary: This paper investigates China's energy trade stability using a survival analysis approach. It finds that the energy trade linkages between China and 153 other countries are complex and unstable, with short periods of trade with many countries. Geopolitically risky regions, such as the Middle East and Africa, have the lowest trade stability. Climate risks have significant effects on energy trade stability. The paper proposes several policy options to improve energy trade stability in China, with special attention to increasing global climate risks.

Summary: The Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) is considered an innovative technology for building a green society. This study investigates the impact of REC purchases on stock return and volume in Taiwan between 2017 and 2021. The findings suggest that REC purchases have a positive effect on stock returns of manufacturing firms but not service firms. The frequency of REC purchases is also an important factor in the relationship between REC purchase and firm value. Additionally, the study reveals that public attention to environmental pollution plays a crucial role in positive stock returns and volume, while ESG disclosure is negatively associated with returns and volume.
