Fractional Authorship & Publication Productivity
ICSR PERSPECTIVES ICSR Fractional Authorship & Publication Productivity Highlights Authors divide their research output across publications, contributing via research collaborations The trend is for authors to produce more publications per year (increased fractionalization) but for the overall number of publications per author to decrease We suggest that the effort required to participate in research collaborations is a factor in the decrease in publications per author AUGUST 2019 AUGUST Are authors collaborating more in response to the pressure to publish? Growth in the number The “publish or perish” research reasons; for instance, to gain access of scholarly publications culture provides incentives for to samples, field sites, research each year has been well researchers to have long publication facilities, or patient groups. lists on their CVs, especially where Researchers wishing to study topics documented (e.g., Bornmann those publications appear in high- outside their own expertise require & Mutz, 2015, Figure 1).

Detecting Trends in Species Composition Thomas E
Iowa State University From the SelectedWorks of Philip Dixon 1998 Detecting trends in species composition Thomas E. Philippi, University of Georgia Philip Dixon, University of Georgia Barbara E. Taylor, University of Georgia Available at: https://works.bepress.com/philip-dixon/36/ 300 INVITED FEATURE Ecological Applications Vol. 8, No. 2 Ecological Applications, 8(2), 1998, pp. 300±308 q 1998 by the Ecological Society of America DETECTING TRENDS IN SPECIES COMPOSITION THOMAS E. PHILIPPI,PHILIP M. DIXON, AND BARBARA E. TAYLOR Savannah River Ecology Laboratory, Drawer E, Aiken, South Carolina 29802-0005 USA Abstract. Species composition re¯ects a combination of environmental and historical events at a site; hence, changes in species composition can provide a sensitive measure of ecologically relevant changes in the environment. Here, we consider the analysis of species composition when multiple sites are followed through time. Analyses of temporal trends in species composition either summarize species compo- sition into a few metrics (indices or axis scores) or analyze the similarity among sites. We develop and illustrate the similarity approach. Each pair of samples represents a pair of replicates, a pair from the same site at different times, a pair from different sites at the same time, or an unrelated pair. Differences among times can be estimated by comparing average temporal dissimilarity to average replicate dissimilarity. Temporal trends can be described by one of three statistics that measure progressive change, the correlation of temporal dissimilarity with the length of time between samples. These methods are illus- trated using data on changes in a South Carolina zooplankton assemblage following dis- turbance, and changes in bird species composition on Skokholm Island, Wales. -

Web of Science (Wos) and Scopus: the Titans of Bibliographic Information in Today's Academic World
publications Review Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus: The Titans of Bibliographic Information in Today’s Academic World Raminta Pranckute˙ Scientific Information Department, Library, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Sauletekio˙ Ave. 14, LT-10223 Vilnius, Lithuania; [email protected] Abstract: Nowadays, the importance of bibliographic databases (DBs) has increased enormously, as they are the main providers of publication metadata and bibliometric indicators universally used both for research assessment practices and for performing daily tasks. Because the reliability of these tasks firstly depends on the data source, all users of the DBs should be able to choose the most suitable one. Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus are the two main bibliographic DBs. The comprehensive evaluation of the DBs’ coverage is practically impossible without extensive bibliometric analyses or literature reviews, but most DBs users do not have bibliometric competence and/or are not willing to invest additional time for such evaluations. Apart from that, the convenience of the DB’s interface, performance, provided impact indicators and additional tools may also influence the users’ choice. The main goal of this work is to provide all of the potential users with an all-inclusive description of the two main bibliographic DBs by gathering the findings that are presented in the most recent literature and information provided by the owners of the DBs at one place. This overview should aid all stakeholders employing publication and citation data in selecting the most suitable DB.

Trends in Neuroscience and Education
TRENDS IN NEUROSCIENCE AND EDUCATION AUTHOR INFORMATION PACK TABLE OF CONTENTS XXX . • Description p.1 • Abstracting and Indexing p.2 • Editorial Board p.2 • Guide for Authors p.4 ISSN: 2211-9493 DESCRIPTION . Trends in Neuroscience and Education aims to bridge the gap between our increasing basic cognitive and neuroscience understanding of learning and the application of this knowledge in educational settings. It provides a forum for original translational research on using systems neuroscience findings to improve educational outcome, as well as for reviews on basic and applied research relevant to education. Just as 200 years ago, medicine was little more than a mixture of bits of knowledge, fads and plain quackery without a basic grounding in a scientific understanding of the body, and just as in the middle of the nineteenth century, Hermann von Helmholtz, Ernst Wilhelm von Brücke, Emil Du Bois-Reymond and a few others got together and drew up a scheme for what medicine should be (i.e., applied natural science), we believe that this can be taken as a model for what should happen in the field of education. In many countries, education is merely the field of ideology, even though we know that how children learn is not a question of left or right political orientation. Contrary to the skeptics (who claim that "brain science […] is not ready to relate neuronal processes to classroom outcomes ", Cf. Hirsh-Pasek K, Bruer JT, 2007), we believe that we know today more about the neuroscience of learning than Helmholtz et al. back then knew about the body. -
Results for the Year to 31 December 2020
11 February 2021 RESULTS FOR THE YEAR TO 31 DECEMBER 2020 RELX, the global provider of information-based analytics and decision tools, reports results for 2020. 2020 Highlights Our three largest business areas, STM, Risk and Legal, which together accounted for 95% of RELX revenue in 2020, all continued to deliver underlying growth in revenue and in adjusted operating profit. Electronic revenue, representing 87% of the total, grew well across all divisions, in line with recent years. Print revenue, which represented 8% of the total, declined more steeply than in recent years. Exhibitions, which accounted for 5% of revenue in 2020, has been impacted significantly by the Covid-19 pandemic. We are proposing a 3% increase in the full year dividend to 47.0p (45.7p). 2020 2019 Change £m £m Three largest business areas: Revenue 6,748 6,605 +2% Adjusted operating profit 2,245 2,165 +4% Exhibitions: Revenue 362 1,269 -71% Adjusted operating profit (164) 331 -150% RELX revenue by format: Electronic 6,179 5,929 +4% Print 586 685 -14% Face-to-face 345 1,260 -73% 2020 Results summary Revenue £7,110m (£7,874m) Adjusted operating profit £2,076m (£2,491m) Adjusted profit before tax £1,916m (£2,200m) Reported operating profit £1,525m (£2,101m) Reported profit before tax £1,483m (£1,847m) Adjusted EPS 80.1p (93.0p) Proposed full year dividend 47.0p (45.7p) Reported EPS 63.5p (77.4p) Net debt/EBITDA 3.3x; cash conversion rate 97% Completed 11 acquisitions for total consideration of £878m 2021 Outlook We expect each of our three largest business areas, STM, Risk and Legal, to deliver another year of underlying revenue and adjusted operating profit growth in 2021, similar to pre-Covid-19 trends. -

In this article, we highlight some of the exciting recent experimental efforts in the study of transcription with an eye to the demands that such experiments put on theoretical models of transcription. From a modeling perspective, we focus on two broad classes of models: the so-called thermodynamic models that use statistical mechanics to reckon the level of gene expression as probabilities of promoter occupancy, and rate equation treatments that focus on the time-evolution of a given promoter and that make it possible to compute the distributions -
