Economics of Fisheries in Jammu and Kashmir: A Case Study of District Anantnag
Get PDFFishery is an important sector in most of the countries of the world from the
viewpoint of income and employment generation. The experience in these
countries indicates that the growth of the fishing sector stimulates the
development and employment in related industries which contribute significantly to
the total economic growth of these countries. Fisheries play an important role in
augmenting food supply and rising nutritional levels of the population. Besides being
an article of protein rich food, fishery also provides a number of by-products such as
fish manure, fish leather, fish glue and isinglass. The aquatic resources of the world
are varied, extensive and rich in potential. They can be broadly divided in to two
groups- marine and inland which in turn can be categorised as capture fisheries and
culture fisheries. With an extensive coastal line extending along the mainland, with a
fairly wide continental-shelf and slope high sea beyond, the world has rich marine
resources. The inshore waters forming the marginal sea together with the coastal
inlets constitute an environment of high productivity, offering great scope for culture
of a wide variety of marine organisms. Similarly the inland fishery resource
comprises of two types of waters namely the fresh water and the brackish, the former
including river systems, an extensive network of irrigation canals, reservoirs, lakes,
tanks, ponds etc. and the latter, the sprawling estuaries at the confluence of the river
system with the sea, a large number of lagoons, brackish water lakes, impoundments
and the vast areas of mangrove swamps containing tidal waters of fluctuating salinity

Economics of wastage in primary education: A case study of Kupwara District.
No full textThe present study makes an attempt to analyse some economic aspects of wastage in primary education in Kupwara district of the Kashmir valley. The study is divided into three chapters. The first chapter is devoted to the presentation of the problem in light of various studies already conducted by various researchers. The second chapter addresses the question of resolving some of the conceptual and methodological issues. It is clear from the findings of the present study (Chapter 3rd) that rate of stagnation and drop outs is higher in rural areas in comparison to urban areas. As against 8.16 and 1.52 in rural schools, the rate of stagnation and drop outs is found 4.10 and 1.19 in urban areas
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
