Concepts of Specialized Farmers Cooperative (cooperative) and Peasants' Specialized Cooperative Economic Organization (Specialized Cooperative Organization) are introduced. Specialized Cooperative Organization having no independent status of legal person is taken as the reference object when...

Dodecylamine spontaneously adsorbs on carbon steel via its polar group (-NH2) in hydrochloric acid solution. Furthermore, it forms a monolayer film on carbon steel surface. The inhibition mechanism of dodecylamine for carbon steel is geometric blocking effect. The adsorption of dodecylamine on...

The emergence of ecosystem-based management suggests that traditional fisheries management and protection of environmental quality are increasingly interrelated. Fishery managers, however, have limited control over most sources of marine and estuarine pollution and at best can only adapt to...

We conduct the first empirical investigation of common-pool resource users' dynamic and strategic behavior at the micro level using real-world data. Fishermen's strategies in a fully dynamic game account for latent resource dynamics and other players' actions, revealing the profit structure of...

In this paper, we revisit Hughes' dynamic continuum model for pedestrian flow in a two-dimensional walking facility that is represented as a continuum within which pedestrians can freely move in any direction [Hughes, R.L., 2002. A continuum theory for the flow of pedestrians. Transportation...
