The climate change system. Part 2 introduction /
Tyt. z nagł.References s. 45.Dostępny również w formie drukowanej.ABSTRACT: Contemporary sciences approach with use of system theory, complex problem solving, case studies and system thinking are offering new horizon for understanding the natural sciences and the climate change system issues. Novelty is understanding of holistic nature of the Universe. System approach has been applied and history of happenings and evolvements are presented at this part of the presentation and where we continue with description of the Earth, Biosphere and the Nature actual working systems. As main action are Interdependences, Interactions and Co-operations of the Life, Climate Change System, and Biosphere. More emphases have been put at the system thinking and its values for understanding the Nature. KEYWORDS: universe, interaction of matter, energy, information, particles, rays, climate change system, living conditions on the planet earth. STRESZCZENIE: Współczesne podejście naukowe z zastosowaniem teorii systemowej, rozwiązań kompleksowych problemów, studiów przypadku i myślenia systemowego otwiera nowe horyzonty przed naukami przyrodniczymi. Nowością jest dostrzeżenie holistycznej natury wszechświata. W tej części pracy zastosowano podejście systemowe do ewoluowania Ziemi, biosfery oraz systemów przyrodniczych. Za najważniejsze cechy uznano współzależnooeć i interakcje pomiędzy zmianami klimatu a biosferą. Szczególną uwagę zwrócono na znaczenie myślenia systemowego dla rozumienia przyrody. SŁOWA KLUCZOWE: wszechświat, interakcje materii, energii i informacji, cząstki, promieniowanie, system zmian klimatu, warunki życia na ziemi
The climate change system. Part 3 introduction /
Tyt. z nagł.References s. 57.Dostępny również w formie drukowanej.ABSTRACT: Third part is presenting real values and has concluding remarks. The only real value is our civilization, but on the other hand our civilization could exist at suitable environment. The Earth is only home of our civilization. That is why we have to transcend from present Globalization ages to the SUSTAINABLE FUTURE for our civilization, harmony of our civilization with the Nature of the planet Earth. Recommendations and Literature are ending our three parts presentation of the Climate Change System Introduction. KEYWORDS: the climate change system, living conditions on the Earth, one planet, world government, world constitution, sustainable future of our civilization. STRESZCZENIE: Trzecia część pracy zawiera uwagi końcowe. Jedyną prawdziwą wartością jest nasza cywilizacja. Cywilizacja ta jednak może istnieć wyłącznie w zrównoważonym środowisku. Ziemia jest domem tej cywilizacji. Dlatego też powinniśmy przejść od obecnego okresu globalizacji do zrównoważonego rozwoju naszej cywilizacji i harmonii z naturą. Trzy części prezentacji dotyczącej wprowadzenia do systemu zmian klimatu kończą zalecenia oraz odsyłacze literaturowe. SŁOWA KLUCZOWE: system zmian klimatu, warunki życia na Ziemi, jedna planeta, rząd światowy, światowa konstytucja, zrównoważona przyszłość naszej cywilizacji

Philosophy of the Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Future of Humankind The Survival of Humanity
Education, education, and education as best of my knowledge is best path for better tomorrow of humanity on the Earth. Of course not as it is at present, but as should be changed for education of the humans for 21st century.
Summary of the past is present, the future is unpredictable.
Present globalization by certain indications could be the answer from the nature respond on present oversized population. It happens in the past on the Earth, and let us hopes for better tomorrow, and let us work for it.
 
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
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
