Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
ANALISIS KARAKTERISTIK ARUS LAUT DAN TRANSPOR MASSA AIR DI PERAIRAN SEKITAR PULAU ENGGANO DENGAN MENGGUNAKAN MODEL NUMERIK 3D
Full text linkGLORYS12V1 merupakan produk dari model numerik 3 dimensi fisika oseanografi dengan resolusi horizontal 1/12o x 1/12o (sekitar 8 km x 8 km) dan 50-layer terhadap kedalaman. Arus laut merupakan salah satu parameter dinamika oseanografi yang berhasil disimulasikan dengan baik oleh model tersebut. Arus laut terhadap kedalaman dapat digunakan untuk kajian tranpor volume. Dengan menggunakan GLORYS12V1 dapat dikaji arus permukaan dan transpor volume rata-rata bulanan di perairan sekitar Pulau Enggano dan sekitarnya selama tahun 2013. Kecepatan arus permukaan bervariasi antara 0-0,75 m/detik. Sementara itu, untuk arus terhadap kedalaman berkisar antara 0-1 m/detik dengan arah dan besar arus bervariasi terhadap kedalaman. Bahkan untuk bulan-bulan tertentu antara permukaan hingga kedalaman 50 m arah nya berbeda dengan kedalaman >50 m hingga dasar. Arus terhadap kedalaman di barat laut dengan tenggara Pulau Enggano memiliki perbedaan arah pada bulan-bulan musim peralihan seperti April dan November. Sementara untuk besarnya relatif sama yaitu pada kisaran 0-1 m/detik. Kemudian transpor volume terhadap kedalaman yang melalui perairan antara Pulau Enggano dengan daratan Sumatra berkisar antara -2 Sv sampai 2 Sv, (1 Sv=106 m3/detik). Nilai positif (negatif) menunjukan arah transport ke barat laut (tenggara). Transpor maksimum berada pada kedalaman 100-700 m pada bulan April-Mei dan Oktober-November menuju barat laut sedangkan bulan Februari-Maret dan Juni-Juli menuju tenggara. Perbedaan arah transpor terhadap kedalaman terjadi pada bulan Februari-Maret (musim barat) dan Juni-Juli (musim timur). Sedangkan pada musim peralihan I dan peralihan II transpor terhadap kedalaman arahnya cenderung seragam yaitu menuju tenggara. Korelasi antara transpor volume dengan kecepatan angin lokal menunjukan kuat searah dari permukaan hingga kedalaman 20 m. Selanjutnya, dari kedalaman 20-300 m korelasi tranpor volume dengan angin berlawanan. Terakhir, dari kedalaman 300 m hingga dasar korelasinya searah namun tidak signifikan. Hal tersebut mengindikasikan bahwa kecepatan arus dan transpor volume di Perairan Pulau Enggano dan sekitarnya dipengaruhi oleh kecepatan angin lokal untuk permukaan - 20 m dan pengaruh regional untuk kedalaman > 20 m. KATA KUNCI: Perairan Pulau Enggano, Arus Laut, Transpor VolumeABSTRACTGLORYS12V1 is a product of a 3-dimensional numerical model of oceanographic physics with a horizontal resolution of 1/12o x 1/12o (approximately 8 km x 8 km) and 50 layers to depth. Ocean currents are one of the parameters of oceanographic dynamics which the model has successfully simulated. Ocean currents to depth can be used for volume transport studies. Thus, by using GLORYS12V1, it is possible to study the average monthly surface currents and transport volumes in the waters around Enggano Island and its surroundings during 2013. The surface current velocity varies between 0-0.75 m/s. Meanwhile, current with depth ranged from 0-1 m/s with the direction and magnitude of the currents vary with depth. Even for certain months, the direction is different between the surface to a depth of 50 m, with a depth of > 50 m to the bottom. Currents to deep in the northwest and southeast of Enggano Island have different directions in the transitional season months, such as April and November. Meanwhile, the magnitude is relatively the same, namely in the range of 0-1 m/s. Then the transport volume to depth through the waters between Enggano Island and mainland Sumatra ranges from -2 Sv to 2 Sv, (1 Sv=106 m3/s). A positive (negative) value indicates the direction of transport to the northwest (southeast). Maximum transport is at a depth of 100-700 m in April-May and October-November towards the northwest while February-March and June-July towards the southeast. The difference in transport direction with depth occurs in February-March (west season) and June-July (eastern season). Meanwhile, in transition seasons I and II, the direction of transport towards depth tends to be uniform, namely towards the southeast. The correlation between volume transport and local wind speed shows the unidirectional strength from the surface to a depth of 20 m. Furthermore, from a depth of 20 m-300 m, the volume transport correlates with the opposite wind. Finally, from a depth of 300 m to the base, the correlation is unidirectional but not significant. This indicates that current velocity and volume transport in the waters of Enggano Island and its surroundings are influenced by local wind speeds for surface – 20 m and regional influences for depths > 20.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
