This paper measures the contribution of information productivity to the economic growth by a revised Cobb-Douglas production function which takes capital, labor and information as three elements. The result shows that information productivity contributes the most to the economic growth. Meanwhile, we also compare China with other high income countries and find that information input has stronger multiplier effect in China than high income countries.

To estimate the biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions in China, this study collected data on vegetation volume, production and distribution, converted into leaf biomass and then used BVOC emission model. In 2003, the annual BVOC emission in China was 12.83 Tg, composed of 7.45 Tg isoprene, 2.23 Tg monoterpenes, and 3.14 Tg other VOCs (OVOCs). Emissions varied significantly among plant species, with contributions ordered as follows: forests > shrubs > crops > grasslands. Southern and northeastern China were the main sources of BVOC emissions. Significant seasonal variation was found with summer contributing the most.
