  • Where to Publish?
    Where to publish? A Handbook of Scientific Journals for Contributors to Marine Conservation Joshua Cinner and Anya Jaeckli ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies, James Cook University, Townsville, AUSTRALIA. Email: [email protected] Version: September 2018 1 Foreword Deciding where to publish can be important- even career changing. A paper in the right journal can make a career, sometimes even define a field, while the same type of research may fade to oblivion in the wrong venue. Knowing which journals are well suited to your research is an important part of being a scientist. For many scientists, there is a wide range of potential venues. So many, in fact, that many of us often forget what the available options are. Here, we compiled a guide of what we consider key journals in interdisciplinary field of marine resource management. We excluded journals that had a focus on pure, rather than applied ecology, geomorphology, or social science. A lot goes into deciding where to publish- popular metrics such as the impact factor are often used, but it is our feeling that this should be done with great caution. For example, just because a journal has a low impact factor does not mean it is not incredibly influential. Here, we present a number of journal metrics, including impact factor, Scimago Journal Rank (SJR), H-index, and others (which we describe in detail below) for 63 journals that publish interdisciplinary papers on marine resource management. We also provide a description of the aims and scope of the journal (from the journal’s website), and in a few cases, we provide some personal notes about the journal.

Practical method to reclassify Web of Science articles into unique subject categories Classification of bibliographic items into subjects and disciplines in large databases is essential and broad disciplines. Quantitative for many quantitative science studies. The Web of Science classification of journals into Science Studies, 1(1), 183–206. https:// doi.org/10.1162/qss_a_00014 approximately 250 subject categories, which has served as a basis for many studies, is known to have some fundamental problems and several practical limitations that may DOI: https://doi.org/10.1162/qss_a_00014 affect the results from such studies. Here we present an easily reproducible method to perform reclassification of the Web of Science into existing subject categories and into 14 Received: 17 July 2019 Accepted: 03 December 2019 broad areas. Our reclassification is at the level of articles, so it preserves disciplinary differences that may exist among individual articles published in the same journal. Corresponding Author: Staša Milojević Reclassification also eliminates ambiguous (multiple) categories that are found for 50% of [email protected] items and assigns a discipline/field category to all articles that come from broad-coverage Handling Editor: journals such as Nature and Science. The correctness of the assigned subject categories Ludo Waltman is evaluated manually and is found to be ∼95%.

Abstract In order to consider the effects of online publishing on the career of researchers, as well as to encourage both its recognition and its improved positioning within the field and beyond, the CETAF Membership organized two workshops during which specific questions about scientific publishing in taxonomy were addressed: authorship citation and Open Access. The present opinion paper is the result of those workshops held on 19 October 2016 in Madrid and on 4 October 2017 in Heraklion. The discussions were aimed at reconciling the requirements of the relevant nomenclatural codes with recommendations for best practices that are adapted to the evolving landscape of e-publishing. By evaluating the different policies of a range of journals regarding authorship citation, we were able to recognise the conflicting and incoherent practices related to the citation of taxon authorships; an issue that is important to clarify for scientific (explicit source), practical (findability of source) and reputational (citation index) reasons. A collective policy on authorship citation also fits into the wider challenge faced by researchers and [...] Reference BÉNICHOU, Laurence, et al.

  • Mapping the Topics and Intellectual Structure of Web Science
    The Journal of Web Science, 2019, 5 Mapping the Topics and Intellectual Structure of Web Science Clare J. Hooper1, Isabella Peters2 and Cécile Robin3 1Vancouver, Canada, [email protected] 2ZBW Leibniz Information Center for Economics & Kiel University, Kiel, Germany, [email protected] 3UNLP, Insight Centre for Data Analytics, NUI Galway, Ireland, [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper charts the evolution of Web Science as a research field. It describes a mixed methods analysis of papers published at the ACM Web Science Conference series from 2009 to 2016, using co-citation analysis, bibliographic coupling, natural language processing, topic modelling and network visualisation techniques in order to map the intellectual structure, i.e. current topics, knowledge base and knowledge transfer, of the field of Web Science. The knowledge base of the Web Science community and the knowledge transfer from the ACM Web Science Conference series are studied, revealing major themes and key authors as a map of Web Science. In particular, the foundations of the Web Science community are revealed via co-citation analysis of authors of papers cited by ACM Web Science papers, while NLP analysis reveals topical descriptors and application contexts of Web Science. Finally, author-based bibliographic coupling of papers published at Web Science Conferences reveals authors who have been influenced by the Web Science community. In sum, this paper presents a knowledge map of the Web Science discipline visualizing topical foci, methodical roots in various disciplines, and key players in Web Science research. Keywords: web science, web science conference, citation analysis, co-citation, bibliographic coupling, intellectual structure, natural language processing, NLP, topic modeling, network analysis, knowlegde maps, knowledge flows.
