To better inf orm efforts to\naddress these issues\, we need to understand how policies to\naddress emissions translate into societal benefits.

While the st andard\nsocial network paradigm assumes that network data has been collect ed\nthough eliciting ties from respondents in a predefined set of\nindivid uals\, covert networks pose obviously challenges in several\nrespects. Fir stly\, the individuals in the network might not be known\na prior. Second ly\, what constitutes a relevant set of individuals and\nties might be amb iguous.\n DTSTAMP:20250521T131053Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:682dd0ddb03f8 DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20170920T140000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20170920T160000 URL:/complexity-innovation/events/wici-open-house-sept- 20-2017-dc-1301 SUMMARY:WICI Open House - Sept. 20\, 2017 - DC 1301 CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nWICI Open House - Sept. 20\, 2017 - DC 1301\n DTSTAMP:20250521T131053Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
