The Linkage of the Different Distinct Great Volcanic Eruptions of the Thera (Santorini) in the Range (1700·1450 ±14) BC and the Related Subsequent Intensifications of the Global Seismicity and Volcanic Activity in the End of the 19TH Century and
Get PDFThe article presents the development of the cosmic geophysics (representing the deterministic the rmohydrogravi dynamic theory based on the authors generalized differential formulation of the first law of thermodynamics) by taking into account the non-stationary energy gravitational influences on the Earth of the Sun (owing to the gravitational interaction of the Sun with the outer large planets) along with the non-stationary energy gravitational influences of the system Sun-Moon, the Venus, the Mars and the Jupiter.The author presents the evidence of the founded ranges of the fundamental global seismotectonic, volcanic and climatic periodicities () years and () years (determined by the combined predominant non-stationary energy gravitational influences on the Earth of the system Sun-Moon, the Venus, the Mars, the Jupiter and the Sun owing to the gravitational interactions of the Sun with the Jupiter and the Saturn) based on the established links between the different distinct great eruptions of the Thera (Santorini) in the range (1700·1450 ±14) BC and the subsequent intensifications of the global seismicity and volcanic activity in the end of the 19th century and in the beginning of the 20th century, in the end of the 20th century, and in the beginning of the 21st century AD
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
THE THERMOHYDROGRAVIDYNAMIC TECHNOLOGY OF EVALUATION OF THE MAXIMAL MAGNITUDE OF THE STRONGEST EARTHQUAKE OF THE EARTH REALIZED NEAR THE LOCAL MAXIMAL COMBINED PLANETARY AND SOLAR INTEGRAL ENERGY GRAVITATIONAL INFLUENCE ON THE INTERNAL RIGID CORE OF THE EARTH
No full textWe consider (on May 25, 2021 AD) the radio-active problem of the global environmental ecology related with the established [1-5] first subrange (2020 ÷ 2026) AD of the increased intensification of the global seismotectonic, volcanic, climatic and magnetic activity of the Earth determined by the combined cosmic (planetary and solar) integral energy gravitational influences on the internal rigid core of the Earth. We have shown that the strongest (characterized by the magnitude M= 9.0 according to the U.S. Geological Survey) Japanese earthquake (occurred on March 11, 2011 in the Tohoku region and resulted to the great ecological disaster related with radio-active contamination in the Tohoku region) was realized near the calculated [4] date (corresponding approximately to April 7, 2011) of the local maximum (for 2011 AD) of the combined cosmic (planetary and solar) integral energy gravitational influence on the internal rigid core of the Earth. To diminish the ecological problems due to the possible ecological disasters related with radio-active contamination (owing to the increased intensification of the global seismotectonic activity of the Earth) near the active nuclear reactors of the world, we have presented (on May 25, 2021 AD) the fundamentals of the thermohydrogravidynamic technology for the reasonable evaluation of the magnitude (which is very close to the real magnitude M= 9.0) of the strongest earthquake of the Earth occurred on March 11, 2011 AD near the previously calculated date of the local maximum (for 2011 AD) of the combined planetary and solar integral energy gravitational influence on the internal rigid core of the Earth
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
