The ice-breaker effect: singing mediates fast social bonding [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2015
It has been proposed that singing evolved to facilitate social cohesion. However, it remains unclear whether bonding arises out of properties intrinsic to singing or whether any social engagement can have a similar effect.

Shared leadership can promote success in collaborative research networks in ecology

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract While collaborative science is becoming the norm in ecology, many ecologists participating in collaborations are less aware of the body of research that studies the processes by which collaborative teams organize and communicate.

A Framework for Structural Analysis of Icebreakers during Ramming of First-Year Ice Ridges

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
This paper presents a framework for structural analysis of icebreakers during ramming of first-year ice ridges. The framework links the ice-ridge load and the structural analysis based on the physical characteristics of ship–ice-ridge interactions.

Complementarity in alliances: How strategic compatibility and hierarchy promote efficient cooperation in international security

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract How can defense alliances reap the efficiency gains of working together when coordination and opportunism costs are high? Although specializing as part of a collective comes with economic and functional benefits, states must bargain over the distribution of those gains and ensure the costs of collective action are minimized.
