Hatfield Marine Science Center trail erosion study : technical report
"Erosion is impacting a portion of the Estuary Nature Trail located adjacent to Oregon State University's Hatfield Marine Science Center (HMSC) facility, located on the south side of the Yaquina Bay estuary approximately one mile from the open waters of the Pacific Ocean. The HMSC Estuary Nature Trail is important to many trail users, as it is the only trail in the Yaquina Bay estuary running alongside the bay." (From the Background section, p.1-1) Includes color photographs and color infrared aerial photographs
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
Variations on the Author
“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
City of Independence transportation system plan
246 pp. Bookmarks supplied by UO. Includes maps and figures. Published June, 2007. Captured February 1, 2008.The Independence Transportation System Plan (TSP) establishes the City’s goals, policies
and action strategies for developing and improving the transportation system within the
Independence Urban Growth Boundary. The Independence TSP outlines a twenty-year plan
to guide transportation improvements and to enhance general mobility throughout this city of
over 7,000 residents. The TSP is intended to serve as a blueprint or master plan to guide
transportation decisions to address both short and long term needs over the coming decades. [From the Plan]"This project is partially funded by a grant from the Transportation and Growth Management
(TGM) Program, a joint program of the Oregon Department of Transportation and the
Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development. This TGM grant is financed, in
part, by federal Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy
for Users (SAFETEA-LU), local government, and State of Oregon funds.
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We 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
Rhododendron Drive integrated transportation plan : Draft
113 pp. Bookmarks supplied by UO. Includes maps and figures. Published May, 2007. Captured January 29, 2008.The Rhododendron (TSP) was initiated in 2006 by the City of Florence, in partnership with
the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). The process was undertaken to improve
modal integration along the Rhododendron Drive corridor. The Rhododendron Drive
Integrated Transportation Plan (RITP) will guide the management and development of
appropriate transportation facilities along the Rhododendron Drive corridor. It was developed
to support the City of Florenceâ s vision for improving safety and facilities to server all modes
of transportation, while remaining consistent. This plan provides the City of Florence with the
necessary elements for amendment to the Florence Transportation System Plan and to inform
future planning and improvement efforts. [From the Plan]"This project is partially funded by a grant from the Transportation and Growth Management
(TGM) Program, a joint program of the Oregon Department of Transportation and the
