Yuan Xu shines a light on how China's sulfur dioxide emissions rose quickly in tandem with rapid economic growth but then dropped to a level not seen for at least four decades. Despite this favorable mitigation outcome, Xu details how this stemmed from a litany of policy stumbles within the Chinese context of no democracy and a lack of sound rule of law. Throughout this book, the author examines China's environmental governance and strategy and how they shape environmental policy. The chapters weave together a goal-centered governance model that China has adopted of centralized goal setting, decentralized goal attainment, decentralized policy making and implementation. Xu concludes that this model provides compelling evidence that China's worst environmental years reside in the past.This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of Chinese environmental policy and governance, air pollution, climate change and sustainable development, as well as practitioners and policy makers working in these fields. 410 $aRoutledge Studies in Environmental Policy 606 $aNature / Ecology$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & Economics / Environmental Economics$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & Economics / Development / Sustainable Development$2bisacsh 606 $aEconomics 615 7$aNature / Ecology 615 7$aBusiness & Economics / Environmental Economics 615 7$aBusiness & Economics / Development / Sustainable Development 615 0$aEconomics. 676 $a363.73925610951 700 $aXu$b Yuan$0534912 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910424954203321 996 $aEnvironmental Policy and Air Pollution in China$92564558 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04829nam 22006975 450 001 9910438115803321 005 20251230061537.0 010 $a94-007-4984-8 024 7 $a10.1007/978-94-007-4984-9 035 $a(CKB)3400000000115805 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000800208 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11957507 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000800208 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10765664 035 $a(PQKB)10818161 035 $a(DE-He213)978-94-007-4984-9 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3070985 035 $a(PPN)168339617 035 $a(EXLCZ)993400000000115805 100 $a20121026d2013 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aNew Materials for Thermoelectric Applications: Theory and Experiment /$fedited by Veljko Zlatic, Alex Hewson 205 $a1st ed. 2013. 210 1$aDordrecht :$cSpringer Netherlands :$cImprint: Springer,$d2013. 215 $a1 online resource (XX, 273 p. 60 illus.) 225 1 $aNATO Science for Peace and Security Series B: Physics and Biophysics,$x1874-6535 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a94-007-4983-X 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $aAlternative strategies for thermoelectric materials developments / A.P.

There is a multidisciplinary search for materials with an enhanced thermoelectric responses for use in such devices. This volume covers the latest ideas and developments in this research field, covering topics ranging from the fabrication and characterization of new materials, particularly those with strong electron correlation, use of nanostructured, layered materials and composites, through to theoretical work to gain a deeper understanding of thermoelectric behavior. It should be a useful guide and stimulus to all working in this very topical field. 410 0$aNATO Science for Peace and Security Series B: Physics and Biophysics,$x1874-6535 606 $aCondensed matter 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aSuperconductivity 606 $aSuperconductors 606 $aCondensed Matter Physics 606 $aNanophysics 606 $aSuperconductivity 615 0$aCondensed matter. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aSuperconductivity. 615 0$aSuperconductors. 615 14$aCondensed Matter Physics. 615 24$aNanophysics. 615 24$aSuperconductivity. 676 $a621.31/243 701 $aZlatic$b Veljko$01750089 701 $aHewson$b A.
