Estudo da adaptabilidade da Quercus suber L. no Nordeste Transmontano
No full textNeste trabalho estuda-se um ensaio de 34 proveniências de Quercus suber L. oriundas
da bacia mediterrânica, com 7 anos de idade, com vista à definição da sua
adaptabilidade às condições edafo-climáticas do Nordeste Transmontano, uma vez que a
maioria da variação das características relacionadas com a adaptabilidade é ao nível da
proveniência. Avalia-se a variabilidade inter-proveniência e a plasticidade fenotípica do
crescimento, sobrevivência e estrutura morfológica.
Os resultados obtidos no ensaio de proveniências mostram que existe variabilidade na
adaptabilidade entre as várias proveniências analisadas, para todas as características em
estudo. Nesta fase, as populações marroquinas apresentam o maior crescimento médio
em altura, seguidas de duas populações espanholas. Relativamente aos diâmetros, há
três proveniências espanholas que se destacam das restantes por possuírem um maior
crescimento médio em diâmetro.
Os resultados evidenciam ainda que a Quercus suber L. é uma espécie capaz de gerar
populações muito diversas e com indivíduos diferenciados em que existe uma elevada
variabilidade genética. Assim sendo, é necessário estar atento à escolha das populações
a utilizar no futuro para acções de repovoamento, com vista a seleccionar os indivíduos
que terão mais hipóteses de sucesso na sua adaptação e desta forma aumentar o
potencial produtivo do sobreiro com especial relevo para a produção de cortiça e criar
condições para o fornecimento abundante e regular de material reprodutivo de provada
qualidade genética.In this research we studied a trial with 34 provenances of Quercus suber L. from the
Mediterranian Basin, with seven years old, to determine which provenances adapt better
to the climate and soil conditions of the Northeast of Trás-os.Montes, because most of
the variation of the characteristics related with adaptability relies at the provenance
level. We evaluate the inter-provenance variation and the phenotypic plasticity of
growth, survival and morphology structure.
The results obtained in the provenance trial show that there is variability in adaptability
among the several provenances tested for all variables. At this stage, marroquin
populations present the higher medium growth in height. In diameter, three spanish
populations present the higher values for medium growth.
The results also show that the Quercus suber L. is a species able to generate many
different populations, with many different individuals, in which the genetic variability is
very high. Therefore, is necessary to choose carefully the populations we’ll use in the
future in reforestation, choose individuals with more survival success and adaptation so
we can improve the productive potential of the cork oak, specially in the cork
production and create conditions for the regular supply of reproductive material of
good genetic quality

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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
