Adirondack Public Good Events Database: Natural Resource, Environmental, Economic and Recreation Policy and Common Pool Resources for a Social-Ecological System in Adirondack Park, New York, USA, 1760-2020.
I assembled this dataset from various published sources to evaluate how the social-ecological system (SES) in Adirondack Park, New York changed through time and the interplay of public goods (Common Pool Resources, CPRs), public land rules and private land rights, and related concepts over 260 years (1760-2020). The database was the basis for a doctoral dissertation titled "Blue Lining: Assessing the Resilience of Adirondack Park, New York Using Polycentricity and Panarchy Frameworks." The goal of the dissertation was to assess patterns and changes in institutional rules, actors and arrangements before and after establishment of the public Adirondack Forest Preserve in 1885 and Adirondack Park in 1892 as those actors and rules were modified and as both internal and external events influenced the SES as it moved through different phases of the adaptive cycle through space and time (see panarchy). Using the database, I identified which organizations and events contributed to natural resource and CPR policy.

Replication package: Dataset and stata-do-file for analysis in "Intragroup communication in social dilemmas: An artefactual public good field experiment in small-scale communities"
<p>This dataset was used for the analysis in "Intragroup communication in social dilemmas: An artefactual public good field experiment in small-scale communities". The data was collected in Namibia in 2017 as part of the SASSCAL research project by Nils Christian Hoenow and Adrian Pourviseh as members of the Chair for Development and Cooperative Economics at the University of Marburg. Funded by the Southern African Science Service Center for Climate Change and Adaptive Land-UseManagement (SASSCAL) through the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (Grant No. 01LG1201B).</p> <p> </p> <p>Article Title: Intragroup communication in social dilemmas: An artefactual public good field experiment in small-scale communities </p> <p>Authors: Nils Christian Hoenow* and Adrian Pourviseh**</p> <p> </p> <p>*RWI – Leibniz Institute for Economic Research, Essen, Germany and & School of Business and Economics, University of<br>Marburg, Marburg, Germany</p> <p>**School of Business and Economics, University of<br>Marburg, Marburg, Germany</p> <p>Abstract: <br>Communication is well-known to increase cooperation rates in social dilemma situations, but the exact mechanisms behind this remain largely unclear. This study examines the impact of communication on public good provisioning in an artefactual field experiment conducted with 216 villagers from small, rural communities in northern Namibia. In line with previous experimental findings, we observe a strong increase in cooperation when face-to-face communication is allowed before decision-making. We additionally introduce a condition in which participants cannot discuss the dilemma but talk to their group members about an unrelated topic prior to learning about the<br>public good game. It turns out that this condition already leads to higher cooperation rates, albeit not as high as in the condition in which discussions about the social dilemma are possible. The setting in small communities also allows investigating the effects of pre-existing social relationships between group members and their interaction with communication.We find that both types of communication are primarily effective among socially more distant group members, which suggests that communication and social ties work as substitutes in increasing cooperation. Further analyses rule out better comprehension of the game and increased mutual expectations of one’s group members’ contributions as drivers for the communication effect. Finally, we discuss the role of personal and injunctive norms to keep commitments made during discussions.</p>
Interspecific social interactions shape public goods production in natural microbial communities
<p>The R code (Hesse_etal.R) descibes step by step how metal polution affects the ecology and evolution of a community-wide public good – the production of metal-detoxifying siderophores. This code accompanies the manuscript "Interspecific interactions shape public goods production in natural microbial communities" (https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/710715v1).</p> <p>The R code is divided into different sections per figure (1-5 and supplementary Figure S1). Each section first starts with reading in the appropriate data files (cvs files) and continues with statistics and plotting of figures.</p>
Data from: When good neighbors don't need fences: Temporal landscape partitioning among baboon social groups
Intraspecific competition is a key factor shaping space-use strategies and movement decisions inmany species, yet how and when neighbors utilize shared areas while exhibiting active avoidance of one another is largely un- known. Here, we investigated temporal landscape partitioning in a population of wild baboons (Papio cynocephalus). We used global positioning system (GPS) collars to synchronously record the hourly locations of five baboon social groups for ∼900 days, and we used behavioral, demographic, and life history data to measure factors affecting use of overlap areas. Annual home ranges of neighboring groups overlapped substantially, as predicted (baboons are considered non-territorial), but home ranges overlapped less when space use was assessed over shorter time scales. Moreover, neighboring groups were in close spatial proximity to one another on fewer days than predicted by a null model, suggesting an avoidance-based spacing pattern. At all time scales examined (monthly, biweekly, and weekly), time spent in overlap areas was greater during time periods when groups fed on evenly dispersed, low-quality foods. The percent of fertile females in social groups was negatively correlated with time spent in overlap areas only during weekly time intervals. This suggests that broad temporal changes in ecological resources are a major predictor of how intensively overlap areas are used, and groups modify these ecologically driven spacing patterns at short time scales based on female reproductive status. Together, these findings offer insight into the economics of territoriality by highlighting the dynamics of spacing patterns at differing time scales.
Data from: Cooperative investment in public goods is kin directed in communal nests of social birds
The tragedy of the commons predicts social collapse when public goods are jointly exploited by individuals attempting to maximise their fitness at the expense of other social group members. However, animal societies have evolved many times despite this vulnerability to exploitation by selfish individuals. Kin selection offers a solution to this social dilemma, but in large social groups mean relatedness is often low. Sociable weavers (Philetairus socius) live in large colonies that share the benefits of a massive communal nest, which requires individual investment for construction and maintenance. Here, we show that despite low mean kinship within colonies, relatives are spatially and socially clustered and that nest-building males have higher local relatedness to other colony members than do non-building males. Alternative hypotheses received little support, so we conclude that the benefits of the public good are shared with kin and that cooperative investment is, despite the large size and low relatedness of these communities, kin-directed.
ESG INDEX IS GOOD FOR SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTOR IN INDIA
<p>At present time sustainable development is a most concerning phenomenon in <br>almost all parts of the world, mostly in developing countries like India and China. Since <br>almost every country is facing the sustainability challenges distressed with environmental, <br>social, governance and financial crisis, sustainable development has become a universal goal. <br>This paper examines whether ESG(Environment Socially Governance)stocks portfolio<br>(represented by S&P ESG) outperforms the blue chip stocks portfolios and the market <br>portfolio in the Indian stock market, by using absolute rate of return and the risk adjusted <br>measures viz Sharpe ratio and Treynor ratio, Jensen ratio and the CAPM. During the period <br>30th jan2008 to 30th September 2013, we find that ESG stocks portfolios has outperformed <br>the blue chip and market portfolios .ESG stocks portfolios is found to be highly correlated <br>with blue chip and market portfolios in India stock market. By Using absolute rate of return <br>we find that the ESG stocks portfolio generated higher return than the blue chip and the <br>market portfolio. Monthly mean return on ESG stocks portfolios is found to be higher than <br>the other two stocks portfolios though not significant. Using risk adjusted measures – Sharpe <br>ratio and Treynor and Jensen ratio, we find that ESG stocks portfolio outperform the market. <br>Moreover, ESG stocks portfolio is most aggressive portfolio as it is found to have high <br>systematic risk and the total risk than the other two portfolios. Further regression results <br>shows that high ESG stocks portfolio is providing higher abnormal returns as compared to<br>blue chip stocks portfolio and market portfolio. Daily results are also found to be consistent <br>with the monthly returns. The findings have important implications for the investors who are<br>socially responsible as they can start investing in such stocks to reap higher return as <br>compared to that of the market.</p>
