Includes bibliographical and internet references (page 12)."Arboviruses (arthropod-borne virus) are commonly spread to humans through the bites of infected mosquitoes, ticks, sand flies, or midges. This report focuses on those arboviruses transmitted by mosquitoes. West Nile virus is the leading cause of domestically acquired arboviral disease in the United States and Kansas.

Rapid Mosquito Surveillance in Response to Floods, 2011.
No full text"Report Author: Ingrid C. Garrison"--Page 9.;
"July 10, 2013.""During 2010, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment discontinued its West Nile virus mosquito surveillance program; therefore, no active mosquito surveillance system was in place in 2011. In response to the floods in Northeast Kansas, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment established a mosquito surveillance system for Atchison and Doniphan Counties. Data from the mosquito surveillance system established on Fort Leavenworth by the Army Preventive Medicine staff was used as a representative sample for Leavenworth County. The Wyandotte County Health Department declined to conduct mosquito surveillance for their county"--Page 2
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

Includes bibliographical and internet references (page 14)."West Nile virus is an arbovirus (arthropod-borne virus) most commonly spread by infected mosquitoes. West Nile virus was first identified in the United States in 1999 and spread throughout the United States. Natural transmission involves a mosquito-bird-mosquito cycle; animals such as humans and horses do not circulate enough virus to re-infect a blood-feeding mosquito, and thus are referred to as "dead-end" or "accidental" hosts. Several species of mosquitoes are responsible for transmission of arboviruses but Culex species are the primary vector for West Nile virus in the United States.
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
