The Problem of Institutional Fit: Uncovering Patterns with Boosted Decision Trees
Complex social-ecological contexts play an important role in shaping the types of institutions that groups use to manage resources, and the effectiveness of those institutions in achieving social and environmental objectives. This is partly because large numbers of potentially influential variables and non-linearities confound traditional statistical methods. Here we use boosted decision trees – one of a growing portfolio of machine learning tool…
Triple exposure: Reducing negative impacts of climate change, blue growth, and conservation on coastal communities
Transnational agricultural land acquisitions threaten biodiversity in the Global South
Agricultural large-scale land acquisitions have been linked with enhanced deforestation and land use change. Yet the extent to which transnational agricultural large-scale land acquisitions (TALSLAs) contribute to—or merely correlate with—deforestation, and the expected biodiversity impacts of the intended land use changes across ecosystems, remains unclear. We examine 178 georeferenced TALSLA locations in 40 countries to address this gap. While …
Network Structure Can Amplify Innovation Adoption and Polarization in Group-Structured Populations with Outgroup Aversion
Individualsâ€TM decisions to adopt an innovation can be influenced by the frequency of other adopters as well as by the group membership of previous adopters or non-adopters in their social network. In addition, adoption or non-adoption of some innovations has been characterized as a means of signaling identification with a group. While identity signaling and outgroup aversion effects on adoption and polarization have been considered in a geo-spa…
Evolutionary Model Discovery of Human Behavioral Factors Driving Decision-Making in Irrigation Experiments
Small farms are thought to produce around a third of the global crop supply. But, in the wake of the climate crisis, their existence is increasingly vulnerable to changes in the spatial and temporal availability of water. The small-scale irrigation systems which water these farms present a social-ecological dilemma: Upstream farms have prevailing access to a canal's resources, but all farms along the canal must contribute to maintaining the irrig…
Infrastructure and the Energy Use of Human Polities
This paper integrates scaling theory with variation in systems of governance to help explain cross-cultural differences in the energy use of human polities. In both industrial and pre-industrial polities, systems of governance moderate the scaling of population and energy use. Polities with more inclusive governance systems display, on average, lower energy use per agent. However, as populations increase in size, the energy consumed by polities w…

On the frontiers of collaboration and conflict: How context influences the success of collaboration
The increasing scale and interconnection of many environmental challenges – from climate change to land use – has resulted in the need to collaborate across borders and boundaries of all types. Traditional centralized, top-down and sectoral approaches to governance of single-issue areas or species within social-ecological systems often have limited potential to alleviate issues that go beyond their jurisdiction. As a result, collaborative governa…
Landscape Engineering Impacts the Long-Term Stability of Agricultural Populations
Drivers of compliance monitoring in forest commons
Identifying Topics and Trends in the Study of Common-Pool Resources Using Natural Language Processing
The rapid growth of the literature on the commons poses an immense challenge for the synthesis and advancement of knowledge. While it may have been reasonable for previous generations of scholars to keep up to date with a literature adding thirty to fifty papers each year, there are now hundreds of papers on the commons published each year in addition to those that might be relevant to researchers on the basis of particular sectors, methods, disc…
Guiding cities under increased droughts: The limits to sustainable urban futures
Climate change is likely to increase droughts. The vulnerability of cities to droughts is increasing worldwide. Policy responses from cities to droughts lack consideration of long-term climatic and socio-economic scenarios, and focus on short-term emergency actions that disregard sustainability in the connected regional and river basin systems. We aim to explore the dynamics of the water-energy-land nexus in urban systems suffering increased clim…

Social-ecological network analysis for sustainability sciences: A systematic review and innovative research agenda for the future
Social-ecological network (SEN) concepts and tools are increasingly used in human-environment and sustainability sciences. We take stock of this budding research area to further show the strength of SEN analysis for complex human-environment settings, identify future synergies between SEN and wider human-environment research, and provide guidance about when to use different kinds of SEN approaches and models. We characterize SEN research along a …

Defining tipping points for social-ecological systems scholarship—an interdisciplinary literature review
The term tipping point has experienced explosive popularity across multiple disciplines over the last decade. Research on social-ecological systems (SES) has contributed to the growth and diversity of the term’s use. The diverse uses of the term obscure potential differences between tipping behavior in natural and social systems, and issues of causality across natural and social system components in SES. This paper aims to create the foundation f…
Social–ecological network analysis of scale mismatches in estuary watershed restoration
Significance Spatial misalignments between governance and environmental systems, often called spatial scale mismatch, are a key sustainability challenge. Collaboration and coordination networks can help overcome scale mismatch problems and should align with the environmental system. Using an approach based on network science, this paper advances scale mismatch analysis by explicitly considering collaborations among local and regional organization…
An iterative approach to case study analysis: Insights from qualitative analysis of quantitative inconsistencies
Large-N comparative studies have helped common pool resource scholars gain general insights into the factors that influence collective action and governance outcomes. However, these studies are often limited by missing data, and suffer from the methodological limitation that important information is lost when we reduce textual information to quantitative data. This study was motivated by nine case studies that appeared to be inconsistent with the…
Explaining success and failure in the commons: The configural nature of Ostrom's institutional design principles
Governing common pool resources (CPR) in the face of disturbances such as globalization and climate change is challenging. The outcome of any CPR governance regime is the influenced by local combinations of social, institutional, and biophysical factors, as well as cross-scale interdependencies. In this study, we take a step towards understanding multiple-causation of CPR outcomes by analyzing 1) the co-occurrence of Destign Principles (DP) by ac…
