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

No full textThe Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR) survey provides a unique multi-decadal dataset on the abundance of
plankton in the North Sea and North Atlantic and is one of only a few monitoring programmes operating at a large
spatio-temporal scale. The results of all samples analysed from the survey since 1946 are stored on an Access Database
at the Sir Alister Hardy Foundation for Ocean Science (SAHFOS) in Plymouth. The database is large, containing more
than two million records (~80 million data points, if zero results are added) for more than 450 taxonomic entities. An
open data policy is operated by SAHFOS. However, the data are not on-line and so access by scientists and others
wishing to use the results is not interactive. Requests for data are dealt with by the Database Manager. To facilitate
access to the data from the North Sea, which is an area of high research interest, a selected set of data for key
phytoplankton and zooplankton species has been processed in a form that makes them readily available on CD for
research and other applications.
A set of MATLAB tools has been developed to provide an interpolated spatio-temporal description of plankton
sampled by the CPR in the North Sea, as well as easy and fast access to users in the form of a browser. Using
geostatistical techniques, plankton abundance values have been interpolated on a regular grid covering the North Sea.
The grid is established on centres of 1° longitude x 0.5° latitude (~32 × 30 nautical miles). Based on a monthly temporal
resolution over a fifty-year period (1948–1997), 600 distribution maps have been produced for 54 zooplankton species,
and 480 distribution maps for 57 phytoplankton species over the shorter period 1958–1997.
The gridded database has been developed in a user-friendly form and incorporates, as a package on a CD, a set of
options for visualisation and interpretation, including the facility to plot maps for selected species by month, year, groups
of months or years, long-term means or as time series and contour plots. This study constitutes the first application of
an easily accessed and interactive gridded database of plankton abundance in the North Sea. As a further development
the MATLAB browser is being converted to a user-friendly Windows-compatible format (WinCPR) for release on CD
and via the Web in 2003
