Serial No. 535,754 Filed September 26, 1983 for MATRIC SUCTION SENSOR (Our File: RICH-0100) Dear Mr. Richards: I am in receipt of your letter of September 25, 1984. I am enclosing a copy of the Prior Art Statement, although we have discussed this matter at least three times by telephone and I believe by now you are well aware of its content and the necessity for filing such a document before the Patent Office. We expect our bills to be paid promptly. Thus, please pay the enclosed bill by return mail. Quite frankly, I believe your "reason" for not paying this charge to be completely unacceptable.

RICHARDS Serial No. 535754 Filed: September 26, 1983 For: MATRIC SUCTION SENSOR Paper No. 2 Group Art Unit 246 PRIOR ART STATEMENT San Francisco, CA 94111 9 August 1984 Hon. Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks Washington, D.C. 20231 Dear Sir: The following citations represent the closest prior art known . to applicant with regard to the invention claimed in the application identified above. In citing these references, applicant makes no assurance that these citations represent the closest prior art which is available, only that they are the most relevant citations known to applicant. PRIOR ART 1. 2. 3. 4. 2,047,638 2,941,174 3,782,179 3,983,527 Kott Richards Richards Ohsato et al All the references cited above were cited in applicant\u27s parent U.S. Application Serial Number 310,295. The Kott patent teaches a devise for measuring atmospheric relative humidity which includes the use of a moisture absorbant cellulosic material impregnated with glycerine. The Richards\u27 patent (174) teaches an electrical sensing element for measuring the moisture condition of soil which comprises a porous ceramic cup containing a granular porous medium in which two electrodes are buried. It is taught that the water in the medium is in hydraulic adjustment through the wall of the porous ceramic cup with the water in the exterior surrounding soil while the electrodes are positioned, one within the other, for measuring electrical capacitance and resistance of the standard medium within the cup while being free of influence by the electrical properties of the external surrounding media. in Richards\u27 179, an apparatus is disclosed for measuring the matrix suction of soil which is not influenced by the adverse affects due to changes in the salinity and temperature of the soil by employing two water-sensitive resistors, one of which has a relatively coarse pore size and the other a relatively fine pore size. Lastly, Ohsato teaches a device which can function as a humidity-sensitive sensor specifically adapted to use on the window of an automobile. It is f3,lrThf 4-*,-,+. _,u e* •LC 1 S taugnt that the sensor possesses a pair of spaced electrodes and a humidity-sensitive coating extending over said electrodes. Dispersed within the resin coating are electrically conducted particles whose spacing are dependant on the measure of relative humidity conditions. - 2 - (y Single copies of each of the above-discussed references are enclosed herewith for the convenience of the examiner.

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
