Particulate organic matter and gel-like particles measured from water bottle samples during METEOR cruise M156
No full textThis dataset includes measured and calculated data over the epi-mesopelagic layer (0-800 m depth) of 28 stations with 14 of them inside or in the vicinity of a cyclonic eddy that formed off Mauritania along the 900 km zonal corridor between Mauritania and the Cabo Verde islands in the eastern Tropical North Atlantic during the M156 cruise on the RV Meteor from July 3rd to August 1st 2019. Particulate organic carbon and nitrogen were analyzed according to Sharp (1974; https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0131538). Transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) and Coomassie blue stainable particle (CSP) were measured by the microscopic method after Engel et al. (2009; Determination of Marine Gel Particles , Practical guidelines for the analysis of seawater. / ed. by Oliver Wurl Boca Raton [u.a.] ; CRC Press, ISBN: 978-1-420-07306-5 ). spectral slope of the particle size distribution were calculated after Mari, X. and Kiørboe, T. (1996). Abundance, size distribution and bacterial coloniza− tion of transparent exopolymeric particles (TEP) during spring in the kattegat. J. Plankton Res., 18(6):969–986

Heterotrophic bacteria, photosynthetic bacteria, autotrophic pico and nanoplankton (<20 μm) abundances, bacterial production and chlorophyll a concentration measured from water bottle samples during METEOR cruise M156
No full textThis dataset complements previously published data (https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.950368). This dataset includes measured and calculated data over the epi-mesopelagic layer (0-800 m depth) of 26 stations with 13 of them inside or in the vicinity of a cyclonic eddy that formed off Mauritania along the 900 km zonal corridor between Mauritania and the Cabo Verde islands in the eastern Tropical North Atlantic during the M156 cruise on the RV Meteor from July 3rd to August 1st 2019. Heterotrophic bacteria, photosynthetic bacteria (Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus), and autotrophic pico and nanoplankton (<20 μm) abundances were measured by flow cytometry. Bacterial biomass production rates were measured through the incorporation of labelled leucine (3H) using the microcentrifuge method (Kirchman et al., 1985, https://doi.org/10.1128/aem.49.3.599-607.1985; Smith and Azam, 1992).

Microbial activity measured from water bottle samples in a cyclonic eddy during METEOR cruise M156, off Mauritania
No full textAuto- and heterotrophic microbial activity (biomass production and respiration) were investigated in a cyclonic eddy that formed off Mauritania along the ∼ 900 km zonal corridor between Mauritania and the Cabo Verde islands in the eastern Tropical North Atlantic during the M156 cruise on the RV Meteor from July 3rd to August 1st 2019. The dataset includes measured and calculated data over the epipelagic layer (0-200 m depth) of 25 stations with 14 of them inside or in the vicinity of a cyclonic eddy. Temperature, salinity, and oxygen were obtained from a Seabird 911 plus CTD system equipped with two independently working sets of temperature–conductivity–oxygen. Seawater samples were collected using 10 L Niskin bottles attached to the CTD Rosette. Ammonium was analysed based on Solórzano (1969, https://doi.org/10.4319/lo.1969.14.5.0799) and nitrate, nitrite, phosphate and silicate were measured photometrically with continuous-flow analysis on an auto-analyser based on Hansen and Koroleff, (1999, https://doi.org/10.1002/9783527613984.ch10). To estimate the fraction of semi-labile dissolved organic carbon, we determined high-molecular-weight (>1 kDa) dissolved combined carbohydrates (dCCHO) based on Engel and Händel (2011, https://doi.org/10.1093/plankt/fbq122) and dissolved hydrolysable amino acids (dHAA) based on Lindroth and Mopper (1979, https://https://doi.org/10.1021/ac50047a019) and Dittmar et al, (2009). The analysis of DCCHO detected 11 monomers: and the dHAA analysis classified 13 monomers. The calculations for the carbon content of dCCHO and dHAA were based on carbon atoms contained in the identified monomers. The sum of dCCHO and dHAA carbon content is referred to as SL-DOC. Chlorophyll a was measured from photometric analysis based on Evans et al, (1987). Heterotrophic bacteria, photosynthetic bacteria (Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus), and autotrophic pico and nanoplankton (<20 μm) abundances were measured by flow cytometry. We converted the cell abundance of the different autotrophic pico- and nanoplankton populations into biomass based on Hernández-Hernández et al. (2020, https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2020.00667). Extracellular release rates, dissolved-, particulate- and total- primary production rates were determined from 14C incorporation according to Nielsen (1952, https://doi.org/10.1093/icesjms/18.2.117) and Gargas (1975). Community respiration was obtained from optode-based method from incubations by measuring changes in dissolved oxygen over 24–36 h. Bacterial biomass production rates were measured through the incorporation of labelled leucine (3H) using the microcentrifuge method (Kirchman et al., 1985, https://doi.org/10.1128/aem.49.3.599-607.1985; Smith and Azam, 1992, ). Community respiration and bacterial biomass production were converted to rates at 22°C using equations from Regaudie-De-Gioux and Duarte (2012, https://doi.org/10.1029/2010GB003907) and from López-Urrutia and Morán (2007, https://doi.org/10.1890/06-1641) respectively. Community respiration rates were converted to bacteria respiration rates based on Aranguren-Gassis et al, (2012, https://doi.org/10.3354/meps09707). Bacteria carbon demand and growth efficiency were calculated from bacterial production and respiration rates. Dittmar, T., Cherrier, J., and Ludwichowski, K.

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
