Rules Compliance and Age: Experimental Evidence with Fishers from the Amazon River
Ecology and Society, 2013 We report the results of common-pool resource economic experiments conducted with indigenous communities in the Colombian Amazon. The experiments recreate two contexts: a limited open access with no institutions regulating the fisheries and a nonmonetary

A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination

Magnetic Textiles: A Review of Materials, Fabrication, Properties, and Applications
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Magnetic textiles (M‐textiles) are emerging as a programmable materials platform that merges magnetic matter with hierarchical textile structures. This article consolidates magnetic material classes, textile architectures, and fabrication and magnetization strategies, revealing structure–property–function relationships that govern magneto‐mechanical ...

Consensus Formation and Change are Enhanced by Neutrality
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Neutral agents are shown to enhance both the formation and overturning of consensus in collective decision‐making. A general mathematical model and experiments with locusts and humans reveal that neutrality enables robust consensus via simple interactions and accelerates consensus change by reducing effective population size.

Residual residential space as commons
International Journal of the Commons, 2012 Research on common pool resources (CPR), which began with a focus on rural communities and their defining agricultural practices, shifted recently also to the urban context, looking at community gardens, city parks and other recreational facilities. This

Avoiding collaborative paradox in multi‐agent reinforcement learning
ETRI Journal, 2021 The collaboration productively interacting between multi‐agents has become an emerging issue in real‐world applications. In reinforcement learning, multi‐agent environments present challenges beyond tractable issues in single‐agent settings.
