Frisby Jarvis Wolsey - Barbara Taylor
No full textAudio interview with Barbara Taylor (b. 1936) about working in Leicester factories. Family worked in various factories (Woolsey, Stibbes). Wanted to work in embroidery so started at Frisby Jarvis in 1950s. Remembers her first day, the factory and working environment, her Woolsey training (3-4 months), lack of promotion prospects. Talks of frequently getting losts in factory, but got to know colleagues. Woolsey training was thought well of, and opened doors. Timing of work completed to calculate wages at Woolsey. Left Frisby Jarvis after cycle accident as mother wanted her 'closer to home', moved to Woolsey aged 15 and after 3 years moved to Corah. Piecework in most cases at Corahs, but Woolsey dresses sold at Joseph Johnsons needed skilled worker to put together

A Multi-Language Comparison of Influences on Author Verification using Character N-Grams
No full textWe create a new multi-language corpus for author verification based on Wikipedia talkpages, and evaluate the influence that differences in topic and time have on character n-gram author profiles. Topic alignment between two texts is found to increase author verification precision, and an authors writing style is found to change over time, but not more significantly after 3 years than after 1 year.Information ArchitectureWISElectrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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

Native and non‐native plant regrowth in the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area after the 2018 Woolsey Fire
No full textMediterranean-type ecosystems are under chronic ecological stress. By assessing changes in plant species and functional groups across the landscape, identifying ecosystem degradation is possible. The Santa Monica Mountains are in close proximity to a densely populated urban area where non-native species invasions are being driven by changing fire regimes, climate change, and anthropogenic disturbances. Non-native growth impacts biodiversity levels and vegetation distributions of native plant communities that are critical for ecosystem health. This study uses analyses of line-point data from the National Park Service Inventory and Monitoring Program to assess ecosystem health in the Santa Monica Mountains from 2014 to 2020 and, in particular, to assess the effects of the 2018 Woolsey Fire on the balance of native and non-native species in the region. Results of this analysis show an increase in non-native cover since 2014 and rapid regrowth of non-native annual grasses and herbaceous cover after the 2018 Woolsey Fire while native communities regrew more slowly. A hotspot of non-native cover was identified in the Northern Simi Hills region, and rapid regrowth was seen after the Woolsey Fire. The hotspot is dominated by non-native annual grasses and annual herbaceous species, some of which returned to prefire populations within a year after the Woolsey Fire. These results raise concerns for the future of native vegetation composition and function throughout the park and highlight the damage densely populated non-native plant communities accumulate in the wake of disturbance events. © 2023 The Authors.
