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
Ofiostomatoidne glive (Ascomycota: Ophiostomataceae) na podlubnikih in njihov možni gospodarski vpliv na gozdove in lesno proizvodnjo
Ophiostomatoid fungi are commercially and economically important group of fungi in forestry and timber production. This group is represented by several genera of Ascomycetes with common morphological characteristics, although withdistinct taxonomy and phylogeny. Several genera of ophiostomatoid fungi have been considered synonymous solely based on morphological similarities as a result of an adaptation to insect dispersal. Ophiostomatoid fungi cause considerable economic losses in the forestry and timber production due to sap stain and vascular wilt diseases. The threat of introduced ophiostomatoid fungi is increasing with the global timber trade and loose control measurements. An overview of the taxonomy, ecology, concept of association (mutualism/symbiosis) and the economic importance of ophiostomatoid fungi are provided.Ofiostomatoidne glive so komercialno in gospodarsko pomembna skupina gliv za gozdarstvo in za proizvodnjo lesa. To skupino predstavlja več rodov Ascomycetes, ki imajo veliko enakih morfoloških značilnosti, vendar različno taksonomijo in filogenijo. Več rodov ofiostomatoidnih gliv je bilo štetih kot sinonim na podlagi morfološke podobnosti, ki je rezultat prilagoditve vektorskemu raznosu. Ofiostomatoidne glive povzročajo velike gospodarske izgube v gozdarstvu in lesni proizvodnji, ker povzročajo obarvanje beljave in bolezni prevodnih elementov dreves. Nevarnost vnosa ofiostomatoidnih gliv se veča z globalno trgovino z lesom in z ohlapnimi ukrepi nadzora trgovine. Prikazana sta pregled taksonomije, ekologije, koncept asociacije (mutualizem /simbioza) in gospodarska pomembnost ofiostomatoidnih gliv

Urban trees and their management in Lesce
V Lescah smo naredili inventuro 725 osebkov drevnine, od tega je bilo 79,2 % dreves in 20,8 % grmov. Izmerili smo obseg v prsni višini in višino, ocenili vitalnost in poškodovanost ter predlagali ukrepe za nego in vzdrževanje. V Lescah prevladuje mlada, na novo posajena drevnina (58,2 %). Za mlado drevninosmo predlagali 171 vseh ukrepov ali 75,3 %. Nobeno staro drevo ni vitalno, kar 84,6 % jih je poškodovanih. Med Leščani smo izvedli anketo o njihovem mnenju glede drevnine in zelenih površin v Lescah. Ugotovili smo, da si krajani želijo zelenje v svojem okolju, da pa potrebujejo nasvete in usmerjanje strokovnjaka pri vzdrževanju, negi, sajenju. Ugotovili smo tudi, dani razlik v mnenju ljudi, ki se ukvarjajo z drevnino, in tistimi, ki se ne.We made an inventory of trees and shrubs in Lesce, which included 725 individuals. They comprised mainly trees (79.8 %), while shrubs were less abundant (20.2 %). Each individual was given a serial number, and the following characteristics were recorded: locationdimensions (height and diameter at breast height)vitality: visible damageand recommendations for further tending. In Lesce young, recently planted trees and shrubs were common(58.2 %), for which we suggested 171 or 75.3 % from all measures. Old trees were not vital, and 84.6 % of them showed damage. Among the inhabitants of Lesce we made a survey regarding their opinion toward trees and shrubs and green spaces in Lesce. We discovered that residents wanted greenery in their environment but they needed suggestions and help from professionals regarding maintenance, care and planting. We found that there was no difference between people who were involved in maintaining greenery and those who were not
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
