In the citing paper
“In this regard, Cash et al. (2006) note that spatial scale mismatches occur when the extent of a decision maker's authority does not map coherently onto the spatial scale of the social or ecological problem at issue.”
From Polycentric Systems of Governance: A Theoretical Model for the Commons (2019) · cites this paper as Cash et al., 2006
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“They cite transboundary pollution, migratory fish stocks, and aquifer management as examples of concerns that often extend beyond the reach of a single decision maker or governance system (Cash et al., 2006).”
From Polycentric Systems of Governance: A Theoretical Model for the Commons (2019) · cites this paper as Cash et al., 2006
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“The diverse mix of state and nonstate governance actors in a polycentric system may be an advantage in this regard because governance actors may be able to leverage complementary knowledge (e.g., local or traditional knowledge and scientific knowledge) about social and ecological systems to inform more contextually adapted institutions, thereby enhancing fit (see Cash et al., 2006).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
