Assessment of Renewable Energy Resources with Remote Sensing
Full text linkThe development of renewable energy sources plays a fundamental role in the transition towards a low carbon economy. Considering that renewable energy resources have an intrinsic relationship with meteorological conditions and climate patterns, methodologies based on the remote sensing of the atmosphere are fundamental sources of information to support the energy sector in planning and operation procedures. This Special Issue is intended to provide a highly recognized international forum to present recent advances in remote sensing to data acquisition required by the energy sector. After a review, a total of eleven papers were accepted for publication. The contributions focus on solar, wind, and geothermal energy resource. This editorial presents a brief overview of each contribution.Instituto do MarAbout the Editor .............................................. vii

Libros en los Andes. La biblioteca robada del cura indígena Fernando Ramos Titu Atauchi (1809)
Full text linkThe library of the indigenous priest Fernando Ramos Titu Atauchi reveals a history of books as objects in the rural Andes of the Viceroyalty of Perú, an area not usually associated with reading. In the first decade of the 19th century, the doctrinaire’s book collection suffered a drastic reduction in the High-Andean doctrine, an area far from the more active circles of the book commerce of the period. Focusing on the study of the library, the article discusses the notion of books at the end of the viceregal period and includes themes such as the pathways to literacy, the possession of books by Indians and the mechanisms for acquiring these goods in the Peruvian highlands. The study then focuses on the collection recompiled by the indigenous clergyman in Umachiri (Puno, Perú), highlighting the size and, above all, the religious theme of the titles collected, among which the Ritual Formulario (1631) of Juan Pérez Bocanegra, a manual for catechism published in Quechua from Cuzco, stands out. Finally, taking into consideration the immediate environment of Priest Fernando, the article offers an explanation for the reduction of the collection, paying attention to the symbolic and economic value of the books. All things considered, a new interpretation of the significance of the culture of printing in the indigenous communities at the end of the colonial period is proposed
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
El retrato de un cura indígena del Cusco tardío virreinal: vida y relaciones de Don Fernando Ramos Titu Atauchi
Full text linkLa biografía, las relaciones y las estrategias de un cura indígena en la etapa tardovirreinal son el tema del presente estudio. Se reconstruyen aspectos importantes de un miembro de la élite nativa cusqueña, que resaltó por ejercer de doctrinero y armar una compleja red de interacciones con diferentes grupos de poder, tanto españoles como indígenas. A lo largo de casi tres décadas a cargo de una iglesia rural altoandina (Umachiri, Puno), Fernando Ramos Titu Atauchi se consolidó como un actor clave manteniendo relaciones sociales y económicas que traspasaban los límites de su jurisdicción, pero que no resistieron a la muerte de este
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
