International coastal cleanup application at local marine area as an environmental solution
No full textAbstract The International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) is an international campaign for international communities and marine environment. This annual action engages schools, government agencies, and business as volunteers to conduct local cleanup event. One of the ICC's primary goal is to record and to trace marine pollution and its sources over the world. The method was divided into three main steps. First of all, preparation was needed in order to organize the action such as surveying the appropriate site and inviting volunteers or participants. Second, during the event, the participants were divided into several smaller groups including their Data Card for recording marine pollutants. All action materials such as plastic bags and gloves were also important to be given to the participants for collecting the debris. Last, after the action, each bag was weighted and recorded into the data card. Data analysis from each card was the final step of ICC. This application method shows its importance and solution the marine environment
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
RELASI ISLAM DAN NEGARA (STUDI PEMIKIRAN POLITIK IR. SUKARNO)
Get PDFPolemik mengenai hubungan antara Islam dan negara berawal dari tahun 1924, ketika Kemal Pasha
mensekulerkan Turki. Keputusan Kemal ini mendapat reaksi dari para cendikiawan muslim baik yang pro
maupun yang kontra di seantero dunia. Pertentangan ideologis ini juga teljadi di Indonesia, yang
saat itu hendak menjadi negara merdeka. Perdebatan ini berlangsung pada sidang BPUPKI, ketika Ki
Bagus Hadikusumo yang mewakili golongan Islam puritan menghendaki negara Islam, sedangkan golongan
nasionalis tidak menghendaki Islam dijadikan dasar negara. Sebagai kompromi pertentangan ideologis
tersebut, Sukamo mengajukan konsepsinya mengenai dasar negara yang kemudian terkenal dengan sebutan
Pancasila. Pertentangna ideologis ini menghebat pada tahun 1940-an antara Sukamo versus Natsir.
Pertentangan ideologis ini terulang kembali ketika rezim Orde Barn runtuh. Demokratisasi memberikan
peluang kebebasan berpendapat dan berideologi telah memunculkan kembali perdebatan mengenai dasar
negara. Hubungan agama (Islam) dan negara mencuat ke permukaan nasional. Munculnya partai Islam,
kerusuhan sosial yang mengandung unsur SARA di sejumlah daerah dan fenomena terorisme (peledakan
born) yang mengusung terma Agama (Islam) adalah menunjukkan bahwa masalah mengenai hubungan
antara Islam dan negara belum tuntas.
Berbicara tentang pemikiran seorang aktor sejarah pada zaman tertentu tidak bisa dilepaskan dari
konteks politik, sosial, budaya, dan situasi intelektual yang berkembang pada saat itu. Untuk itu,
pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah sosio-historis, yaitu pendekatan yang
digunakan untuk mengetahui latar belakang sosio-kultural dan sosio-politik seorang tokoh, dengan
tujuan untuk meneliti hubungan antara ide pada satu fihak, kecenderungan emosional di fihak lain
dan kepentingan serta faktor-faktor lain yang mempengaruhinya. Kemudian mendiskrip kannya secara
general pokok-pokok pemikiran Sukamo dan menganalisanya dengan menggunakan nalar deduktif, dengan
tujuan untuk mencari sinergi dengan konsepsinya mengenai relasi Islam dannegara.
Dalam konteks kekinian (orde reformasi), hubungan Islam dan negara harus dirumuskan secara total,
sehingga tidak ada lagi ganjalan di kemudian hari, yang berakibat pada kerusuhan sosial, terorisme
dan sebagainya. Oleh karena itu, mempertimbangkan kembali pemikiran tokoh pendiri bangsa mutlak
diperlukan, dan Sukamo menawarkan ideologi Nasionalisme sebagai pemersatu
Dalam penelitian ini, kemudian dapat diketahui bahwa pandangan Sukamo
mengenai hubungan antara Islam dan negara harus dipisah. Dengan asumsi dalam Islam tidak ada ayat
yang secara tegas menganjurkan berdirinya negara Islam, Islam hanya memberikan dasar-dasar
berbangsa dan bemegara yang baik (Islami) dan tidak adanya kesepakatan ulama' mengenai negara
Islam semakin mempertegas pendirian Sukamo. Di samping itu, menurut pandangannya, agama adalah
urusan pribadi. Sukamo juga lebih tertarik untuk mengambil sisi subtansi Islam (aqidah) daripada
syari'ahnya. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa warisan budaya jawa (kejawen) masih begitu kental dalam
benak pemikiran Sukamo. Dan hal inilah yang melatar belakangi pemikiran Sukamo menolak Islam
dijadikan dasar negara
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
