Assessment of Self-Archiving in Institutional Repositories: Depositorship and Full-Text Availability
No full textThis research evaluates the success of open access self-archiving in several well-known institutional repositories. Two assessment factors have been applied to examine the current practice of self-archiving: depositorship and the availability of full text. This research discovers that the rate of author self-archiving is low and that the majority of documents have been deposited by a librarian or administrative staff. Similarly, the rate of full-text availability is relatively low, except for Australian repositories. By identifying different practices of self-archiving, repository managers can create new strategies for the operation of their repositories and the development of archiving policies
Information Literacy and Librarian-Faculty Collaboration: A Model for Success:
No full textIn the age of information explosion and technological advancement, issues of information storage, organization, access, and evaluation have become necessarily important in our societies. Addressing issues of information literacy and designing how they can be best integrated in students' learning process are of critical importance. Library professionals in the United States, particularly in the academia, have realized the importance of information literacy and have attempted in various ways to address these issues. The ultimate goal is to make information literacy an integral part of the academic curriculum, thus helping students to succeed not only during their years in college but also for their lifelong career choices. This article will look at ways of how information literacy can best be incorporated into students' academic experience, and how this process can make students' learning meaningful and successful. Specifically, the author will examine the model of librarian-faculty collaboration in integrating information literacy into the curriculum, as demonstrated in the Ohio Five Colleges' Information Literacy Program.Publisher version of this article is available at: http://www.white-clouds.com/iclc/cliej/cl24.ht
Paleopressure during Hydrocarbon Charging and Its Evolution in the Funing Formation of the Gaoyou Sag, Subei Basin, Eastern China
No full textAbnormally high pressures are currently limited and locally developed in the Funing Formation of the Gaoyou Sag, Subei Basin, eastern China, but the paleopressure and its evolutionary history remain unclear. Based on the determination of hydrocarbon charging periods by performing systematic fluid inclusion analysis on sixteen core samples from the Funing Formation, thermodynamic modeling with fluid inclusion data was adopted to reconstruct the paleopressure and redisplay its evolutionary history throughout geological time. Results showed that the Funing Formation experienced two episodes of hydrocarbon charging periods. Episode 1 occurred with the charging of lower maturity oils in the period from 52.8 Ma to 49.5 Ma, which was recorded by yellow-fluorescing oil inclusions. Episode 2 happened with the charging of higher maturity oils in the period from 47.0 Ma to 37.0 Ma, which was characterized by blue-fluorescing oil inclusions. Each episode was an abnormally high-pressured hydrocarbon charging process. The pressure coefficient of Episode 1 reached as high as 1.44, while that of Episode 2 reached as high as 1.40. The current formation pressure is the evolutionary result of paleopressure after a process of rapid increasing and decreasing and slow increasing and is not as high as what it reached during the hydrocarbon charging periods. This work is valuable for the exploration of conventional clastic oil reservoirs and unconventional shale oils in the Funing Formation

Exploration and development integration practice of subtle reservoir of 3rd member of Funing Formation in western slope of Qintong depression
No full textAiming at the problems that the structural reservoir of the 3rd member of Funing Formation in the shallow layer of the western slope of Qintong depression is not developed and the benefit development of the deep low permeability reservoir is difficult, the sedimentary modeling technology and waveform inversion technology are adopted to deepen the study on the accumulation rule and evaluate the favorable area of the structural lithologic oil reservoir of the 3rsd member of the shallow Funing Formation. The spontaneous potential-waveform inversion technology can clearly describe the sand body of about five meters. Based on the established sedimentation and reservoir forming mode of shallow lake beach bar in the 3rd member of Funing Formation in the western slope of Qintong, Nanhua-Cangji ten-million-ton high quality reserve position has been found by the integrated research, deployment and implementation of exploration and development, and the exploration well success rate is 70 %. The construction and production mode of “decision-making and deployment, geological engineering, organization and operation integration” has been implemented to promote the structure-lithologic reservoir evaluation of the 3rd member of Funing Formation in the western slope of Qintong, and realize the available reserves of 1 003×104 t and the built the production capacity of 17.5×104 t. The break-even point for crude oil has been reduced from 46/bb1, enabling efficient exploration and development of concealed reservoirs

Applying the NISO Metasearch Initiative Scheme to Enhance E-Resources Management at Rutgers University Library
No full textThis paper discusses problems in the management of library e-resources and attempts to identify potential solutions to the problems. By describing an e-resources enhancement project taken by Rutgers University Libraries, this paper points to the importance of providing contextually-rich metadata and reorganizing the accessibility of e-resources on a library’s website. It introduces how this Rutgers project adopted the National Information Standards Organization Metasearch Initiative to support the identification of appropriate e-collections for metaseaching. The outcomes of the project have facilitated a dynamic display of relevant e-resources to library users as an effective way of automatic access to library e-collections.Peer reviewe
Coastal Reclamation Embankment Deformation: Dynamic Monitoring and Future Trend Prediction Using Multi-Temporal InSAR Technology in Funing Bay, China
No full textReclamation is an effective strategy for alleviating land scarcity in coastal areas, thereby providing additional arable land and opportunities for marine ranching. Monitoring the safety of artificial reclamation embankments is crucial for protecting these reclaimed areas. This study employed synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) using 224 Sentinel-1A data, spanning from 9 January 2016 to 8 April 2024, to investigate the deformation characteristics of the coastal reclamation embankment in Funing Bay, China. We optimized the phase-unwrapping network by employing ambiguity-detection and redundant-observation methods to facilitate the multitemporal InSAR phase-unwrapping process. The deformation results indicated that the maximum observed land subsidence rate exceeded 50 mm per year. The Funing Bay embankment exhibited a higher level of internal deformation than areas closer to the sea. Time-series analysis revealed a gradual deceleration in the deformation rate. Furthermore, a geotechnical model was utilized to predict future deformation trends. Understanding the spatial dynamics of deformation characteristics in the Funing Bay reclamation embankment will be beneficial for ensuring the safe operation of future coastal reclamation projects
A Metadata Manager's Role in Collaborative Projects: The Rutgers University Libraries Experience
No full textPurpose – This article discusses the roles and responsibilities of a metadata manager in collaborative digital projects.
Methodology – It describes the general requirements for metadata management, and introduces some scenarios in the practices of digital projects by the Rutgers University Libraries to support the generalized definition. A workflow of metadata management is illustrated.
Practical implications – With an explicit definition of the roles and responsibilities of the metadata manager, many other digital libraries that need to develop a new or optimize the existing workflow may find the Rutgers experience useful as reference.
Originality – Very few articles have explored this topic although the functions of metadata in the development of digital projects have been talked extensively.Peer reviewe
