АКТУАЛЬНИЙ СТАН ЕКОЛОГІЧНОГО МЕНЕДЖМЕНТУ ПІДПРИЄМСТВ СІЛЬСЬКОГОСПОДАРСЬКОЇ СФЕРИ (НА ПРИКЛАДІ ТОВ «КЕРНЕЛ-ТРЕЙД»)
Get PDFThe article is devoted to the analysis of the current state of environmental management of agricultural enterprises (on the example of “Kernel-Trade” LLC). The article analyzes the indicators of development of certain types of economic activity in order to determine the place of agriculture in the economy of Ukraine. Using statistical data, the author assesses the impact of agricultural enterprises on the environment (the use of mineral and organic fertilizers, liming of soils, soil gypsumization, soil treatment with pesticides, etc.) The author assesses the volume of investments and current expenditures in the field of environmental protection of agricultural enterprises in Ukraine. “Kernel-Trade” LLC is considered as one of the strongest players in the agro-industrial market, and its main financial indicators (profit, EBIDTA, social payments, gross income, net debt), its contribution to the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (namely, contribution to Sustainable Development Goal 6 – clean water and satisfactory sanitation 7 – affordable and clean energy, 12 – responsible production and consumption, 15 – protection and restoration of terrestrial ecosystems, and 17 – partnership for sustainable development) and the environmental management cycle in the field of environmental protection. Based on the analysis of statistical information from the company’s annual report, the volume of CO2 emissions by different types of activities was compared. Using the SWOT analysis, the features of the current state of environmental management of the enterprise are summarized. The scientific novelty and theoretical significance of the article’s results lies in the development of theoretical and methodical provisions for improving the management of enterprise competitiveness through the implementation of environmental management initiatives. Today, the topic of ecology is extremely relevant, since obtaining EU membership requires not only economic and political changes, but also, above all, changes in the sustainable development of the country as a whole. It is through the prism of agriculture that the authors of the article emphasized the need for changes in the approach to enterprise management on the basis of environmental sustainability in Ukraine.Стаття присвячена аналізу сучасного стану екологічного менеджменту підприємств сільськогосподарської сфери (на прикладі ТОВ «Кернел-Трейд»). У статті проаналізовано показники розвитку окремих видів економічної діяльності з метою визначення місця сільського господарства в економіці України. Використавши статистичні дані, проведено оцінку впливу діяльності підприємств сільського господарства на стан навколишнього природного середовища (обсяги використання мінеральних та органічних добрив, вапнування ґрунтів, гіпсування ґрунтів, оброблення ґрунтів пестицидами тощо). Проведено оцінку обсягів інвестицій та поточних витрат у сфері охорони навколишнього середовища сільськогосподарських підприємств України. Розглянуто ТОВ «Кернел-Трейд» як один з найсильніших гравців на ринку агропромислової сфери, а також досліджено його основні фінансові показники (прибуток, EBIDTA, соціальні виплати, валовий дохід, чистий борг), його внесок у досягнення цілей сталого розвитку ООН (а саме внесок до цілей сталого розвитку 6 – чиста вода та задовільні санітарні умови, 7 – доступна та чиста енергія, 12 – відповідальне виробництво та споживання, 15 – захист та відновлення екосистем на землі та 17 – партнерство задля сталого розвитку) та цикл управління екологічними аспектами у сфері охорони навколишнього середовища. На основі аналізу статистичної інформації з річного звіту компанії, порівняно обсяги викидів СО2 за різними видами діяльності. За допомогою SWOT-аналізу узагальнено особливості сучасного стану екологічного менеджменту підприємства. Наукова новизна і теоретичне значення результатів статті полягає в розвитку теоретико-методичних положень щодо удосконалення управління конкурентоспроможністю підприємства за рахунок впровадження ініціатив екологічного менеджменту. На сьогоднішній день тема екології є надзвичайно актуальною, оскільки отримання членства ЄС потребує не тільки економічних та політичних змін, а й насамперед змін у сталому розвитку країни в цілому. Саме через призму сільського господарства автори статті підкреслили необхідність змін у підході до управління підприємствами на засадах екологічності в Україні
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
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
