Longshore current dislocation on barred beaches
[1] We present a numerical investigation of longshore currents driven by breaking waves on barred beaches. Alongshore inhomogeneity in the wave envelope or bathymetry leads to the generation of strong dipolar structures when the waves are breaking. The dynamics of these structures transfer momentum from the bar of the beach into the trough. This study is pursued using a new model that allows lo...
متن کاملCharity Auctions: a Field Experiment*
Auctions are a popular way to raise money for charities, but relatively little is known, either theoretically or empirically, about the properties of charity auctions. We conduct field experiments to see which sealed bid format, first price, second price or all-pay, raises the most money. Our experiment suggests that both the all-pay and second price formats are dominated by the first price auc...
متن کاملIndirect Reciprocity; A Field Experiment.
Indirect reciprocity involves cooperative acts towards strangers, either in response to their kindness to third parties (downstream) or after receiving kindness from others oneself (upstream). It is considered to be important for the evolution of cooperative behavior amongst humans. Though it has been widely studied theoretically, the empirical evidence of indirect reciprocity has thus far been...
متن کاملRewarding Volunteers: A Field Experiment
We conducted a field experiment with the American Red Cross to study the effects of economic incentives on volunteer activities. The experiment was designed to assess local and short-term effects, but also spatial and temporal substitution, heterogeneity and spillovers. Subjects offered $5, $10, and $15 gift cards to give blood were more likely to donate, and more so for the higher reward value...
متن کاملMatching Donations in a Field Experiment
This paper tests the effect of matching charitable giving in a randomized field experiment. The students at the University of Zurich have to decide, each semester, whether they wish to contribute to two social funds. The donations of the treatment group are matched by contributions of an anonymous donor. The results support the hypothesis that a matching mechanism increases contributions to a p...
