An Ontology of Organized Crime
The author, Stephen Schneider, undertakes a holistic analysis of the numerous definitions, descriptions, and concepts that represent the criminological construct referred to as “organized crime.” He provides a critical analysis of those researchers who have trafficked in ethnic and racial monikers that dominates much of the earlier research on “organized crime,” specifically singling out the late sociologist, Donald Cressey. Recognizing the diffi…

Assessing dangerous climate change through an update of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) “reasons for concern”
Article 2 of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change [United Nations (1992) http://unfccc.int/resource/docs/convkp/conveng.pdf . Accessed February 9, 2009] commits signatory nations to stabilizing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that “would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference (DAI) with the climate system.” In an effort to provide some insight into impacts of climate change that might be consi…
Complexity of Coupled Human and Natural Systems
Integrated studies of coupled human and natural systems reveal new and complex patterns and processes not evident when studied by social or natural scientists separately. Synthesis of six case studies from around the world shows that couplings between human and natural systems vary across space, time, and organizational units. They also exhibit nonlinear dynamics with thresholds, reciprocal feedback loops, time lags, resilience, heterogeneity, an…
Coupled Human and Natural Systems
Humans have continuously interacted with natural systems, resulting in the formation and development of coupled human and natural systems (CHANS). Recent studies reveal the complexity of organizational, spatial, and temporal couplings of CHANS. These couplings have evolved from direct to more indirect interactions, from adjacent to more distant linkages, from local to global scales, and from simple to complex patterns and processes. Untangling co…
Abrupt non-linear climate change, irreversibility and surprise
Global climate policy
While the Conference of the Parties wrangle at an international scale with climate policy, a quiet set of policies and measures is being implemented at a local scale by municipalities across the globe. This study examines the motivation municipalities have for undertaking policies to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, when the theory of free-ridingwould predict that local administrations should find it difficult to unilaterally reduce their e…

Are the economic costs of stabilising the atmosphere prohibitive
Imaginable surprise in global change science
Decisionmakers at all scales (individuals, firms, and local, national, and international governmental organizations) are concerned about reducing their vulnerability to (or the likelihood of) unexpected events, 'surprises.' After briefly and selectively reviewing the literature on uncertainty and surprise, we adopt a definition of 'surprise' that does not include the strict requirement that it apply to a wholly unexpected outcome, but rather reco…

Global Climate Change Ecosystems Effects
Much concern is felt about global warming and many debates have ranged widely on this subject without as yet arriving at a precise answer; the 'best guess' at present is a 60% chance of a global average change in the 1·5–4·5 K range if carbon dioxide concentrations were to double. However, regional temperature changes are still more speculative depending on the heat retaining properties of the oceans and the continents. The reaction of ecosystems…

Global Warming
How important is a degree of temperature change? A degree or two temperature change is not a trivial number in global terms and it usually takes nature hundreds of thousands of years to bring it about on her own. We may be doing that in decades ...Humans are putting pollutants into the atmosphere at such a rate that we could be changing the climate on a sustained basis some ten to a hundred times faster than nature has since the height of the las…

Atmospheric Particles and Climate
The equilibrium temperature of the Earth is maintained by a balance between the unreflected part of the incoming solar energy, which is absorbed by the Earth-atmosphere system, and the outgoing long-wave radiation escaping from the Earth to space. It has long been suspected that suspended atmospheric particles (aerosols) might affect this balance, primarily by affecting the albedo or reflectivity of the Earth, thereby altering the amount of solar…
Ice Ages and Orbital Variations
Possible physical mechanisms relating orbital-element variations (i.e., the “Milankovitch mechanism” of insolation regime changes) to Quaternary glacial/interglacial transitions are explored quantitatively. These include the seasonal cycle of albedo and the zonal distribution of thermal inertia. These mechanisms can interact with the perturbations to zonal average and seasonal average insolation caused by orbital-element variations to cause a glo…
