Moreover, we also find that perceived behavioral control positively affect shared electric bicycle' intention and positively moderate the relationship between attitude and behavioral intention. Based on our findings, we discuss the policy implications and further studies.Small-scale agriculture (SA) is regarded as unsustainability because of its low benefit. To protect traditional agricultural landscapes like terraces through SA will be difficult. However, in China, terraces are still maintained well by smallholders now. This study takes the family as a basic unit and SA in Hani terraced region as an object to explore its sustainability from the perspective of labor productivity (LP) through the questionnaire method. The findings are that peasant households work on both farm and non-farm jobs. They get a low income (3854.5 yuan RMB) from hybrid-rice-cropping and a high income (44,665.8 yuan RMB) from non-farm jobs but spend a small part of labors (34.23 person•days) in growing hybrid-rice and expended lots of labor (522 person•days) for non-farm jobs. In conclusion, LP of hybrid-rice-cropping is 1.32 times that of non-farm jobs for a household. The result shows SA in Hani terraced region has a higher return of labor investment than non-farm jobs. It is different from the common impression of the low benefit of SA and also explains why SA still continues to exist in the mountainous area in China now. However, SA in Hani terraced region also faces challenges with salary level rise of non-farm jobs and part-time farmers' requirement for living quality improvement. In the future, promoting industrial integration development in this region to add local employment for improving farmers' income is a feasible approach to protect terraced landscapes.This research attempted to investigate the impact of urbanization and spatial agglomeration on carbon emissions. To achieve the goal, the dynamic panel data model was employed to explore the nonlinear relationship between urbanization and carbon emissions for 166 cities in China taking the period 2005-2015, and the Gini coefficient of urban population size distribution in 15 urban agglomerations were calculated to analyze whether the spatial agglomeration of cities contributed to environmental protection. The results show that there is an inverted U-shaped curve between urbanization and carbon emissions; high-level urbanization development helps reduce carbon emissions; the spatial agglomeration of cities can contribute to carbon reduction to a certain extent based on the empirical results of the spatial agglomeration promotes the early arrival of the inflection point in the inverted U-shaped relationship between urbanization and carbon emissions; and the improvement of urban agglomeration level can present an abatement effect on carbon emissions at a lower urbanization level, which enhances the positive environmental effect of urbanization development compared with the decentralized urban distribution model. Furthermore, there is a significant U-shaped relationship between spatial agglomeration and carbon emissions, which indicates that the scientific planning of urban clusters will achieve economies of scale and agglomeration effect, thereby reducing carbon emissions. These findings contribute to complement the existing literature as well as provide some implications related to sustainable urban development for policymakers.Microplastics (MP) are transported from land-based sources from rivers to marine waters. However, there is currently little knowledge about MP fate from land sources to marine waters. TAK580 Traffic is estimated to be one of the largest sources of MP; hence, stormwater is expected to be an important transportation route of MP to marine waters. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the size and density of tyre wear particles in road run-off on their fate in the Göta River in Sweden using hydrodynamic modelling. The model of
