Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
An algorithm for soil moisture mapping in view of coming Sentinel-1 satellite
No full textThe main objective of this paper is to assess the capability of a soil moisture (SMC) algorithm adapted to the GMES Sentinel-1 characteristics, developed within the framework of an ESA project (SMAD-1). The SMC product shall be generated from Sentinel-1 data in near-real-time and delivered to the GMES services within 3 hours from observations. Two different complementary approaches were proposed: the first approach was based on Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), which represented the best compromise between retrieval accuracy and processing time, thus being compliant with the timeliness requirements. The second approach was based on a Bayesian Multi-temporal method, allowing an increase of the retrieval accuracy, especially in case of few ancillary data available, at the cost of computational efficiency, taking advantage of the frequent revisit time achieved by Sentinel-1. The algorithm was validated in several test areas in Italy, US and Australia, and finally in Spain by performing a 'blind' validation. © 2012 IEEE
Soil moisture mapping using Sentinel 1 images: The proposed approach and its preliminary validation carried out in view of an operational product
No full textThe main objective of this research is to develop, test and validate a soil moisture (SMC)) algorithm for the GMES Sentinel-1 characteristics, within the framework of an ESA project. The SMC product, to be generated from Sentinel-1 data, requires an algorithm able to process operationally in near-real-time and deliver the product to the GMES services within 3 hours from observations. Two different complementary approaches have been proposed: an Artificial Neural Network (ANN), which represented the best compromise between retrieval accuracy and processing time, thus allowing compliance with the timeliness requirements and a Bayesian Multi-temporal approach, allowing an increase of the retrieval accuracy, especially in case where little ancillary data are available, at the cost of computational efficiency, taking advantage of the frequent revisit time achieved by Sentinel-1. The algorithm was validated in several test areas in Italy, US and Australia, and finally in Spain with a 'blind' validation. The Multi-temporal Bayesian algorithm was validated in Central Italy. The validation results are in all cases very much in line with the requirements. However, the blind validation results were penalized by the availability of only VV polarization SAR images and MODIS low-resolution NDVI, although the RMS is slightly > 4%

The Right to Strike under the United States Constitution: Theory, Practice, and Possible Implications for Canada
No full textAnswering critics of the Canadian Supreme Court's judgment in B.C. Health, the author argues that the Court laid the foundation for a principled and durable doctrine protecting constitutional labour rights, one that goes directly to the heart of the matter — the inequality of workers’ power in the employment relation. In the author’s view, two paths could lead from B.C. Health to the recognition of Charter protec- tion for a right to strike: one that treats the right as an accessory to col- lective bargaining, and one that upholds the right directly on the basis of the Charter values of equality and participation. The author supports the latter approach, contending that constitutional rights should be defined in relation to fundamental values, in a way that is not contingent on time-bound or fact-sensitive assessments about the role of strikes within a particular collective bargaining regime. Although a Charter right to strike may involve the courts in difficult choices about when to defer to legislative policy decisions, and courts may lack the institutional capac- ity to deal effectively with labour law issues, the author points out that judges can look to ILO standards for expert guidance. Noting that the U.S. experience in this area might be of considerable use to Canadians, the author concludes by providing an overview of American case law concerning a constitutional right to strike.Peer reviewe
