Aerosol chemical composition (major ions and iodine species) in samples collected during the M138 cruise in the eastern Pacific Ocean, June 2017
No full textSize segregated aerosol samples were collected during the M138 cruise (FS Meteor) during 6 June - 1 July 2017 in the eastern Pacific Ocean (~86 W - 76 W, 16 S – 5 N). The samples were collected by Hermann Bange of GEOMAR, Kiel, Germany. The aerosol sampler was situated on the roof of the ship's wheelhouse and its operation was controlled by an automatic wind sector controller to prevent contamination from the ship's stack. Samples were collected using a Sierra-type cascade impactor to separate the aerosol particles at an aerodynamic diameter cutoff of 1 µm. Collection time for these samples varied between 14.3 and 65.2 hours. Samples were extracted with ultrapure water and the major ions Na+, NH4+, Mg2+, K+, Ca2+, Cl-, NO3-, SO42-, oxalate, Br- and methanesulfonate were determined by ion chromatography (IC). Total soluble iodine (TSI) was determined by inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and iodide (I-) and iodate (IO3-) were determined by IC-ICP-MS. Analysis work was performed by Andrew Smith of University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK. The dataset contains the atmospheric concentrations of all measured soluble major ions (in nmol/m³)) and iodine species (in in pmol/m³). The data are reported in “Soluble iodine speciation in marine aerosols across the Indian and Pacific Ocean basins”, E. Droste et al., Frontiers in Marine Science, in preparation, (2021)
Aerosol chemical composition (major ions and iodine speciation) during the TransBrom cruise in the western Pacific Ocean, October 2009
No full textSize segregated aerosol samples were collected during the Very short lived bromine compounds in the ocean and their transport pathways into the stratosphere (TransBrom) cruise (FS Sonne, SO202) during 9 - 25 October 2009 in the western Pacific Ocean (~141 E - 146 E, 20 S – 43 N). The samples were collected by Christian Müller, Sebastian Wache and Arne Lanatowitz of GEOMAR, Kiel, Germany. The aerosol sampler was situated on the roof of the ship's wheelhouse. Samples were collected using a Sierra-type cascade impactor to separate the aerosol particles at an aerodynamic diameter cutoff of 1 µm. Collection time for the samples varied between 20.3 and 26.8 hours. Samples were extracted with ultrapure water and the major ions Na+, NH4+, Mg2+, K+, Ca2+, Cl-, NO3-, SO42-, oxalate, Br- and methanesulfonate were determined by ion chromatography (IC). Total soluble iodine (TSI) was determined by inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and iodide (I-) and iodate (IO3-) were determined by IC-ICP-MS. The dataset contains the atmospheric concentrations of all measured soluble major ions (in nmol/m³) and iodine species (in pmol/m³)
Aerosol soluble chemical composition for OASIS cruise (SO234/2 & SO235), Indian Ocean, July-August 2014, determined by ion chromatography and inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry
No full textSize segregated aerosol samples were collected during the OASIS (“Organic very short lived substances and their Air Sea Exchange from the Indian Ocean to the Stratosphere”) cruises (FS Sonne, SO234-2 & SO235) during 8 - 20 July & 23 July – 7 August 2014 in the southern Indian Ocean (~30 E - 75 E, 30 S – 5 N). The samples were collected by Birgit Quack of GEOMAR, Kiel, Germany. The aerosol sampler was situated on the roof of the ship's wheelhouse and was connected to an automatic wind sector controller to prevent contamination of the samples from the ship's stack. Most samples were collected using a Sierra-type cascade impactor to separate the aerosol particles at an aerodynamic diameter cutoff of 1 µm. Collection time for these samples varied between 27.7 and 46.9 hours. For one sample, 6 impactor stages and a backup filter were used to give more detailed information aerosol size distribution. This sample was collected over 91.7 hours. Samples were extracted with ultrapure water and the major ions Na+, NH4+, Mg2+, K+, Ca2+, Cl-, NO3-, SO42-, oxalate, Br- and methanesulfonate were determined by ion chromatography (IC). Total soluble iodine (TSI) was determined by inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and iodide (I-) and iodate (IO3-) were determined by IC-ICP-MS. The dataset contains the atmospheric concentrations of all measured soluble major ions (in nmol/m³) and iodine species (in pmol/ m³)
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
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
