A Theoretical Study of the Sensitivity of Spaceborne Bistatic Microwave Systems to Geophysical Parameters of Land Surfaces
No full textA research activity aiming to assess the potential of bistatic measurements of scattered radiation from the land surface is presented. The purpose is to identify the best configuration of a passive system measuring the signal originated by sources of opportunity, like GLASS or radars aboard a satellite. The preliminary result of the study consists of the validation of the electromagnetic model simulating bistatic scattering from bare soil, including the coherent component. A very preliminary sensitivity analysis to soil moisture is also presented
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
