Property Rights Entrepreneurship: The Drive for Product, Asset, and Resource Excludability

open access: yesManagerial and Decision Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Property rights are foundational to market economies, and entrepreneurial activity depends heavily on the excludability afforded by property rights.

Synthetic Imagery Improves Ecological Classification When Real Data Are Scarce, Not Direct Substitutes

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Image generation models can create synthetic ecological datasets and potentially alleviate limitations from sparse real data. Using 20 tree genera across community‐science and street‐view imagery, we tested whether synthetic images could replace or supplement real data for image classification.

Facilitating System Change With GOSR: Integrating AI and Human Collaboration

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Problem solving in complex domains requires approaches that encourage systems thinking, collaboration, and recognize multiple simultaneous solutions. Building from principles of General Systems Theory and existing problem structuring methods, we present a new method for supporting system partners working to address complex problems called GOSR.

Born to die: pack and population level estimates of wolf pup survival and recruitment in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wolf pup Canis lupus survival is a key driver of wolf population dynamics that remains poorly understood, especially in forested systems, because wolf pups are difficult to monitor. We used a combination of pup counts at dens and remote camera observations to estimate annual survival and recruitment of wolf pups in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem, MN ...

open access: yes, 1991
I propose an approach to provide 95% confidence intervals for a chronology of low-frequency tree-ring variation so that a level of significance or importance for trends can be inferred.
