Landscape stewardship and hunting, angling and gathering wild products
Get PDFGathering products from the wild is common practice throughout the European Union (EU). Based on a review of data and literature on gathering and consuming wild plants, mushrooms, game, and fish in the EU, we inventoried consumed wild species and mapped species richness of common wild food species. We identified motives for wild food gathering and consumption and mapped the importance of wild food gathering and consumption throughout the EU. A wide variety of game (38 species), mushrooms (27 species) and plants (81 species) is collected and consumed throughout the EU. Income, age, gender, possibilities for collecting, and cultural factors explain the importance of wild food. Although the role in food supply and income provision is limited, at least 100 million EU citizens consume wild food. Local wild food species are essential components of traditional dishes and as such are a connection between people and the diverse species that make up the cultural landscapes they live in. Also, the act of gathering wild food enhances awareness of the landscape. Through gathering wild food, people learn about nature’s functioning and experience nature. The benefits that wild food gathering provide trigger people to actively participate in landscape stewardship.</p
Full carbon accounting: mission impossible?

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
