Long-term adaptation mitigates the promotion effect of air pollution on short-term population movements by Chongjia Luo, Xiaotong Yan, Bowen Wang, Abdelrahman Ali, Abdelrahman Ali

“…IntroductionWhile permanent migration has been extensively studied as a health-protective strategy for residents to avoid air pollution, national-level evidence regarding the short-term movement as a potentially more cost-effective measure remains limited.MethodsThis study used the instrumental variable approach to empirically examine the effect and mechanism of air pollution on short-term population movements in China by using a cross-city daily panel dataset.ResultsOur results showed that air pollution significantly promotes short-term population movements. …”
