Fisheries impacts of the CBFM-2 project: final assessment of the impact of the CBFM project on community managed fisheries in Bangladesh
Get PDFFollowing the recommendations of earlier investigations reported by Halls and Mustafa (2006), this study reports a final assessment to address the question: ôDoes CBFM bring sustainable benefits to fisher communities? Or in other words ôDoes the CBFM workö? It employs most of the methods described by Halls & Mustafa (2006) supported by additional statistical methods including unit slope tests using and an updated set of data containing additional observations made since the time of last reporting. The same performance indicators and explanatory variables were used for the analysis. Similar to the earlier study, it also aims to identify important explanatory factors to help inform future co- or communitybased management initiatives and programmes. It was intended that key findings and conclusions would be incorporated into evolving communications products, working documents and peer-reviewed publications.Fishery management, Impact study

The work was written in order to response the questions that was asked to the writer and inform the disciples of the religious way. According to the writer the questions that were asked to himself are these: the state of the following of the religious way and grasping the self with the help of this religious way, the reality of human body and the mysteries of the perfect spritual guides. İn Kenzü'l-Esrâr, many sufic (Islamic mysticism) subjects are mentioned: the reality and the nature of human being, the progress of the following the religious way, levels of the self, manners of the soul, inner science, reciting aloud God's name, devotion, the rules of manner that was necessary for the spritual guide to know, the rules manner that was necessary for disciple to know and obey, the rules of manner in the religious way, four gate fourthy authorities, the love for the family of Prophet Mohammed and twelve imam* crown (tâc), cardigan (hırka), hide (post) and prayer- rug (seccade). In this work, the writer who is a member of Rifâî religious way is giving information about sufic subjects and Rifâî way,. The work was written in Ottoman Turkish and its various capies can be found in different libraries. During our studying process we benefit from two capies. The object of our study is to know about the opinions and the rules of manner of Rifâî way which belongs to the 19th century; and to provide sources for the ones who are studying on this subject. * İmam: Religious leader
Use of enriched live prey in promoting growth and maturation of tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon)
Get PDFThis study was undertaken to determine the effect of nutritional management of broodstock of Penaeus monodon on growth and maturation. Test specimens were obtained from a grow-out pond before attainment of maturity and were reared in hatchery tanks. Four types of dietary treatments (M1–M4) were given to separate batches that were run in duplicate. Feeding trials continued for five months. A diet with live bloodworm, bioencapsulated to contain tricalcic phosphate as its major component, was found to be the most efficient. Specimens of this particular batch assimilated food more efficiently, grew at a faster rate and attained maturity earlier than other groups. Bloodworm provided the lipid fractions for which there is no de novo synthesis in shrimp. The enrichment product acted by promoting somatic growth and increasing transfer of biochemical constituents needed by the ovary for development.Shrimp culture, Feeding experiments, Nutritional requirements, Diets, Growth, Sexual maturity Penaeus monodon
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
The development of the Sufi Self according to Mustafa Kamal al-Din Bakri
No full textIn this article, we studied how the Sufi Self develops according to Mustafa Kamal al-Din Bakri (m. 1162/1749), a prominent sufi who was raised under the Khalwatiyya-Shabaniyya tradition. The development of the sufi self relates to the transformation of the person's inner life through climbing spiritual stages of sufi life and their influence on the person's identity and personality. In the introduction, we briefly studied self-development according to psychology and sufism, then analyzed the notion of self-development according to our author. The sufi's view of sufi self-development is being considered under three major aspects: the relationship between exoterism and esoterism, struggles and Sufi exercises, relationship between guide and disciple. We started by studying the relationship between exoterism and esoterism in order to focus on the balance between inner life and outer life, then came the importance of struggling and practicing exercises in order to reach this balance and finally the relationship between the guide and the disciple travelling together on their quest to fulfill the spiritual journey. With this study and by analyzing the subject of Sufi self-development through these three topics, we aimed at contributing to clarify sufi psychology within the frame of spiritual psychology
