Distribusi Spasial Ikan Chhaetodontidae dan Peranannya sebagai Indikator Kondisi Terumbu Karang di Perairan Teluk Ambon
Terumbu karang di Indonesia saat ini berada dalam kondisi yang sangat memprihatinkan dan telah banyak mengalami kerusakan. Untuk mengetahui kondisi karang secara cepat dan dapat dilakukan oleh seorang yang bukan ahli karang dibutuhkan cara yang murah dan sederhana. Kehadiran ikan Chaetodontidae dalam perairan karang dapat dipnakan sebagai indikator kondisi terumbu karang. Penelitian ini dirancang pada enam stasiun penelitian di Teluk Ambon (En, Amahusu, Hative Besar, Kota Jawa dari lokasi Teluk Ambon bagian luar, dan Halong dan Hunut dari lokasi Teluk Arnbon bagian dalam), dimaksudkan untuk mengevaluasi distribusi spasial ikan Chaetodontidae berdasarkan bentuk pertumbuhan karang dan menentukan jenis ikan yang dapat digunakan sebagai indikator kondisi terumbu karang
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
We 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
Analysis and Mapping of Stakeholders in Traditional Use Zone within Marine Protected Area
This research is greatly needed in order to accommodate the interest and influence of stakeholders and to find solution to conflict of interests among the stakeholders. As a case study, it was conducted in traditional utilization zone of Cendrawasih Bay National Park (CBNP) at Teluk Wondama Regency from August 2010 to June 2011 using qualitative method. The aim of the research was to formulate pro-and-contra conditions that might have a potential to create conflicts and to find out suitable strategies to resolve the conflicts to improve governance and management. The result shows that most stakeholders are mapped as key players of conflicts interest. The analysis also found that stakeholders were distributed as a subject, key player, and context setter, and no stakeholder was classified as a crowd category. This result implied that most stakeholders have an interests and influences to create good governance and to keep a sustainable development in the traditional use zone. Based on this finding, it can be stated that the existing conflict patterns were categorized as open and latent conflicts. These conflicts can be resolved by creating collaboration among Management Body local community, NGOs, and local government through strengthening the institutional capacity for the management of traditional use zone.Keywords: stakeholders, conflict and conflict resolution, traditional use zone, marine conservation<br /
ESTABLISHING OF AQUATIC PROTECTED AREAS (APAS) NETWORK IN PAPUA\u27S BIRD HEAD\u27S SEASCAPE (BHS): SPECIES MIGRATION AND GENETIC CONNECTIVITY
In general, the APAs network serves to protect, conserve and utilize marine resources in order to ensure sustainability is guaranteed on an ongoing basis. The APAs network is a network involving the management of two or more APAs (Kaimana, Fakfak, Bintuni, Raja Ampat, Sorong, Tambrauw and Teluk Wondama) synergistically linked to biophysical, species migration and genetic connectivity. From the biophysical aspect, BHS is characterized by migration and the specific habitat of endangered charismatic species and genetic connectivity. Migration in the BHS region can be seen from the migration of turtles, sharks, sharks, manta rays and cetaceans (whales and dolphins). The endangered species are unique in BHS and they utilize BHS area as a migration path and as an aggregation area. The world\u27s largest leatherback turtle nesting beaches are also found in BHS, including other species of turtle nesting, such as green turtle, olive ridley turtle, and hawksbill turtle. Other charismatic species often found in the BHS region are manta rays, whale sharks, dugongs, and other endemic fish species. The BHS region is a cetacean hotspot that supports populations of species protected by the IUCN Red List. Of the 30 species of cetaceans recorded in Indonesia, 15 species are found in BHS. The whales can also migrate from Cenderawasih Bay to Raja Ampat Waters. Manta rays are often found in Raja Ampat, Yapen Island, and Cenderawasih Bay. Good collaboration is required in protecting species and understanding oceanographic phenomena that relate to the migration and genetic connectivity of the organism.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
We 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
