The initial table and graphs were created using the results from the Google Scholar search and the subset of 150 articles analyzed from the WoS citations. As the results are a combination of a full search (GS) and a partial search (WoS) without extrapolation they should not be taken as conclusive but Continue reading June 30, 2011 – Initial Table and Graphs
Today was spent in a mad dash putting together the poster proposal for the ASIS&T conference which is due at midnight tomorrow. Here is our to-do list as copied from the Google Chat with Heather and myself: Here’s what it needs: – an abstract – a shorter intro. Total length Continue reading June 30, 2011 – ASIS&T poster proposal to-do list
Today I finished tagging the WoS citations for the data collection articles for TreeBASE and started the tagging for GEOROC. Tags and citations can be seen in the TreeBASE – WoS Mendeley Group and the GEOROC -WoS Mendeley Group.
This morning Heather and I did a few housekeeping things to clean up the data some and make it easier to export for data analysis. I spent the rest of the day collecting full-text articles for the Web of Science citations which site the Data Collection Articles of the TreeBASE Continue reading June 28, 2011 – TreeBASE Data Collection
On Friday I finshed analyzing the data for 150 citations from Web of Science for the Pangaea data repository. The tags added for these can be found in the Pangaea – WoS Mendeley group. Today I finished analyzing the data for the 150 citations from Web of Science for the Continue reading June 27, 2011 – Data Collection
Today I was able to start the data collection/tracking for the Word of Science citations of the Data Collection Article. For a reminder, we previously collected all of the citations for articles that have cited the data collection article for each of the datasets in all repositories. Heather completed a Continue reading June 23, 2011 – Pangaea Data Collection
Below are some rough thoughts that I’ve hacked out on the data collection process and results so far. They are somewhat scattered at this point, so bear with me. I’ve also included thoughts on potential graphs that can be made to display the findings as of yet. Based on Continue reading Thoughts on the process/results so far
This morning I searched Google Scholar for the DOIs of the two social science databases. I had only one hit for one of the ICPSR datasets and it happened to be a citation to the actual dataset so not much new. Search terms used for IQSS are here and search Continue reading July 22, 2011 – Tracking IQSS & ICPSR
Today was spent tracking the Protein Data Bank (PDB) datasets. As Heather had predicted, there were quite a few more hits than the previous data repositories (670 citations). The search terms used and search results can be seen in this Google Spreadsheet. As Heather predicted such a large amount of Continue reading June 21, 2011 – Tracking Protein Data Bank
Most of today was spent tracking the Biological Magnetic Resonance Data Bank (BMRB) ID numbers in Google Scholar. It was really hard getting rid of the “chatter” in the search results and determining which citations actually cited the dataset based on the small blurb on Google Scholar. I collected 77 articles that potentially cited Continue reading June 20, 2011 – Tracking BMRB
