Palaeohydrography and ancient settlements in the Adige River plain, between Rovigo and Adria (Italy)
This research aims to study the relationship between man and environment in the Adige and Po fluvial systems and their influences to the natural and artificial landscapes during the centuries. Case studies represent two good examples in which these relations produced particular morphologies and anthropic settlements of the past that can be studied with remote sensing firstly. Field survey, stratigraphical study and archaeological survey have been driven by photo aerial analysis and interpretation.
The Villadose case investigates a situation in which the fluvial landforms influenced the choice of an ancient settlement. From the archaeological viewpoint the area is of great interest due to the presence of important Bronze and Iron Age sites and the existence of an exceptionally well-preserved roman centuriation, which extends for 250 km2 from the city of Rovigo almost until the Lagoon of Venice.
The Pettorazza case is an example in which man modifies the natural fluvial system once it has become a danger with its avulsions and crevasses. In order to clarify the stratigraphy of the alluvial ridge of the Adige river which crosses the area between Rovigo and Adria, a transect of boreholes has been made in the Pettorazza site
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
