Environmental taxation, information precision, and information sharing

Information Sharing and Environmental Policies

Based on the assumption that in a standard eco-dumping model governments are uncertain about future product demand and allowing governments to obtain information from firms, we examine governments' and firms' incentives to share information. We show that when governments regulate polluting firms through emission standards, then governments and firms will reach an agreement concerning informatio...

Sharing Visual Knowledge in Environmental Information Systems

Remotely sensed data are particularly efficient for environmental mapping in order to outline major environmental types. Some competent models of piecewisehomogeneous images are used in environmental mapping to segment real images. These models consider both an image and a land cover map. Such a pair constitutes an example of a Markov random field specified by a joint Gibbs probability distribu...

Information asymmetry and information sharing

Although much digital divide research focuses on access to technology, another cause of the divide is the lack of information awareness that we call information asymmetry. Information asymmetry often stems from inadequate information sharing and can result in negative consequences for both the information poor and the information rich. Information asymmetry has been insufficiently studied as a ...

Investigating the Impact of Information Literacy and Information Communication Technologies on Knowledge Sharing among Public Library Librarians

Purpose. Information literacy and information communication technologies are the determining factors in today's ever-changing conditions. In this study, the relationship between information literacy and knowledge sharing with the mediating role of information communication technologies among public library staff has been studied to determine the role of these two factors in knowledge sharing by...
