“…Macroeconomic variables such as per capita income levels, unemployment rates or fuel prices have an important influence on transport demand (Cordera et al, 2015). Many academic studies of the effects of the global economic crisis provide evidence that some changes in transport behaviour originated during the recessionary phases (Rothengatter, 2011;Sobrino and Monzón, 2014;Campos-Soria et al, 2015). In Australia, where the impact of the crisis was much lower than in other countries, the baby boomers switched to more environmentally friendly travel modes at the beginning of the financial crisis (Kamruzzaman et al, 2014).…”

“…The motorization rate has remained more or less stable in this period, with the highest level in 2007, 486 veh/1,000 inhab., and 471 veh/1,000 inhab. in 2013 (Sobrino and Monzón, 2014;Dirección General de Tráfico). With respect to transport demand indicators, both the use of urban public transport and the vehicular traffic peaked in 2007, then decreased until 2013 (11.1% and 14.1%, respectively) and recovered slightly in 2014 (Ministerio de Fomento, 2014).…”

Impacts of the economic crisis on household transport expenditure and public transport policy: Evidence from the Spanish case

et al. 2018

The objective of this paper is to assess the impacts of the economic crisis in Spain on the transport expenditure of households from 2006 to 2014 and how transport authorities reacted to cope with the decreasing public resources and transport demand. The approach is based on quantitative and qualitative sources of information: the Spanish Household Budget Survey and in-depth interviews with public transport policy makers from six metropolitan areas.Highlights 1. Household expenditure on transport fell from 15.9% of total expenditure to 13.2%.2. Only the poorest households increased their share of budget on transport.3. The purchase of new cars decreased notably from the very beginning of the crisis. 4. Public transport authorities tried to reduce costs and increase revenues.5. Adaptation to the crisis was easier for the wealthiest households and PT networks.

“…Currently, the Log Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) [12][13][14] and Laspeyre [15][16][17][18] are the two most widely used kinds of decomposition algorithms in energy consumption studies. These two algorithms reflect changes in energy consumption by different quantified factors.…”

Based on the international community's analysis of the present CO2 emissions situation, a Log Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) decomposition model is proposed in this paper, aiming to reflect the decomposition of carbon productivity. The model is designed by analyzing the factors that affect carbon productivity. China's contribution to carbon productivity is analyzed from the dimensions of influencing factors, regional structure and industrial structure. It comes to the conclusions that: (a) economic output, the provincial carbon productivity and energy structure are the most influential factors, which are consistent with China's current actual policy; (b) the distribution patterns of economic output, carbon productivity and energy structure in different regions have nothing to do with the Chinese traditional sense of the regional economic development patterns; (c) considering the regional protectionism, regional actual situation need to be considered at the same time; (d) in the study of the industrial structure, the contribution value of industry is the most prominent factor for China's carbon productivity, while the industrial restructuring has not been done well enough.

“…En periodos de crecimiento económico como el que protagonizó España entre 1990-2007, la motorización y las distancias viajadas tienden a aumentar (Nielsen, 2015). Así, Sobrino et al (2014) documentan para el caso español una primera etapa 1990-1997 con un gran crecimiento del parque automovilístico, y una segunda etapa anterior a la crisis (2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007) donde las condiciones de bonanza econó-mica permitieron aumentar enormemente la cilindrada de los vehículos en circulación. Esta alza de la capacidad de acceso al vehículo privado, junto con la burbuja inmobiliaria y el incremento de los cambios de residencia hacia áreas urbanas periféricas, creó una estructura urbana dispersa y monofuncional que, terminó por aumentar la dependencia del automóvil (Bayona i Carrasco y Pujadas, 2014).…”

RESUMENLa crisis económica internacional ha tenido impactos en múltiples aspectos de la vida cotidiana en España. Como soporte indispensable de la vida cotidiana, la movilidad también se ha visto afectada por la pérdida de puestos de trabajo y la caída de la capacidad de gasto de las familias. La dimensión de los cambios sin embargo depende en gran parte de las condiciones inherentes del territorio, que tiene la capacidad de potenciar o restringir las estrategias de adaptación a la crisis. El artículo propone un análisis de la movilidad cotidiana en la Región Metropolitana de Barcelona para el periodo 2004-2012, examinando la evolución de los patrones de movilidad en los años previos y posteriores a la llegada de la crisis a España. Los impactos sobre la movilidad diaria se contextualizan en base a la resiliencia territorial de cada subámbito metropolitano: Barcelona, su 1ª y 2ª coronas metropolitanas, analizando las distintas posibilidades de adaptación que cada territorio ofrece a sus ciudadanos.Palabras clave: movilidad; crisis económica; adaptación; Barcelona; resiliencia. ABSTRACTThe current international crisis has had impacts on multiple aspects of everyday life in Spain. As an indispensable support of daily life, mobility has also been affected by the loss of jobs and the fall of spending power of families. The dimension of the changes, however, depends largely on the inherent conditions of the territory, which has the ability to Boletín de la Asociación de Geógrafos Españoles N.º 75 -2017, págs. 9-28 I.S.S.N.: 0212-9426
