Questions related to Publications
I have been asked to submit a paper on a special issue of Genes- MDPI. The impact factor of the journal is showing to be 3.4 but I saw conflicting articles about the MDPI journals being a predatory one. Though the editor of the issue is a reputed person in the field, I am bit confused about the journal in general. What are your thoughts?
What are the seminal publications on micro-history? Especially journal papers. I am familiar with Carlo Ginzburg's book (The Cheese and the Worms) and Szijártó's studies. I need papers explaining how to apply this approach in management and organization studies (MOS).
Are there any recommendations for publications on freemium and customers retention/termination?
I would understand a no-payment-for-review policy for journals that don't charge APC and avail publications through open access.
But journals that sell publications and/or charge APCs should be paying experts who review the works before publication. NO?
If the domain are listed in the scope of the journal, without checking the research article domain many editors rejected the paper stated that "Your manuscript does not fit within the scope of the journal".
Hi scholars,
I have a silly question about how to generate accurate statistics for publications by year or field as in the attach example. It seems that Scopus or Web of Science has normally been used with their automatically generating graph functions. However, it does not generate well statistics about patents and papers from the journals that are not in their system. What about Google Scholar and Google Patent if the number of each search counts is recorded with suitable keywords? The problem with Google Scholar is perhaps it is overcounting by including the presentations, lab-notes or book chapters from the same book. What is the best search engine for this task and is their any mathematics formula to minimise the standard deviation of false counts?
Something which provides an illustrated description of the GLUE method used usually in hydrology, along with proper explanations of the mathematical and statistical background used in the methodology.
Some notable publications which I've already looked at:
1. Beven, K., & Binley, A. (1992). The future of distributed models: model calibration and uncertainty prediction. Hydrological processes, 6(3), 279-298.
2. Beven, K., & Binley, A. (2014). GLUE: 20 years on. Hydrological processes, 28(24), 5897-5918.
Dear all,
Can anyone advise me on publications relating to archaeological section conservation?
Publications and usual practices on field advice to backfill, but I am wondering if there are techniques to stabilize the sediment and if it is possible to come back to the initial state.
I am aware of studies on clay minerals, especially smectite, to find solution to stabilize them whatever the percentage of humidity. Has the product used any impact on the primary composition of the deposit? Is there any alteration of the artifact?
Thanks all in advance for your help and answer.
Kind regards,
Millena
What justification do universities have for re-evaluating peer-reviewed and published publications prior to promoting lecturers?
Key metrics are citation numbers, promotion and rank of users of the applicable research methods.
I am looking for any publications in English describing types of family firms operating in countries from Central Eastern Europe.
HI
Joined Research gate recently. I am shocked to see someone claiming falsely my publications. Economics student by my name claiming my publications. Does RG not check weather affiliations match with claimant or not.
Hello all,
What are the possible polymers that can sustitute commercial polypropylene? Such substitutes should be "chemically recyclable", that is, depolymerizable into monomers and the monomers are repolymerizable. Examples and relevant publications are needed!
Thank you.
Logical suggestions required with publications.
Hello
I have been contacted about publishing with this journal . But it seems a bit strange to me . I know it’s open access but it was also hard to find papers online from it. Can you help ?
Thanks

Hi Folks,
Have you investigated publications associated with COVID-19 host risk factors and immunopathogenesis related research?
We are all aware that SARS-CoV-2 infection and disease risk factors are complex, resulting in widely varying outcomes, ranging from asymptomatic to severe illness, and death. To be able to evaluate one's own risk related to COVID-19, multiple contributing factors must be considered, including the well known and frequently discussed risk factors of old age, obesity, diabetes, social circumstances, environmental circumstances, and other commonly described co-morbidities along with SARS-CoV-2 variant behaviors. However, the well known and openly discussed risk factors are insufficient to explain the widely varying outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 exposure. Therefore, in the commonly used public domain information sources, some information is missing concerning additional, lesser discussed, but potentially critically important risk factors. It is clear to me that there is no single factor that can determine any particular individual's risk, therefore more information is needed to aid in risk assessment. In no way is this information outcome deterministic, and only represents additional statistical factors to consider when assessing one's own risk to exposure to SARS-CoV-2.
Well, I recently started looking into some of this research, and I would like to share some research that I think could be very important, and ultimately shed some more light on COVID-19, human host immunopathogenesis, and risk. Some of these papers summarize and evaluate research, performed by others, on various host factors that may be additional indicators of SARS-CoV-2 infection and associated disease severity risk. I have included links to articles, preprints, and studies so that we all can be aware of established and up and coming research. All of these articles are open and freely available to the public. I have also included a link to the Wikipedia website on global blood type distribution as a general reference. Do you know your blood type?

I am a PhD student and am currently working on metabolite profiles of some marine invertebrates.
While analysing some raw data generated from LC-MS, HRMS, NMR and FTIR, I was told by some researchers that these raw data, once submitted to a journal as supporting files, cannot be used further for any other analysis. For each analysis I need to generate the raw data again, otherwise it will be treated as a case of self-plagiarism.
I can see that my raw data has a potential of producing three distinct publications. I can analyse different parts of my raw data differently to present distinct conclusions.
But generating all the raw data again from these analyses, and that too for each publication, does not look sustainable to me. And clubbing all three publications in one also does not seem to be a good option here.
So I would like to know your views on this matter as a researcher and also as an Editor/Reviewer. Also, please share your similar experiences and solutions to it.
I am looking for a tool for drawing a humanoid robot model like in this image. Is there any recommended software for drawing this model?
International exchanges are inevitable in order to develop our projects and to ensure a sufficient critical base for the research. This confronts us with the problem of translating ideas, concepts and results that have developed in our local working language. As we know, English nowadays plays the role of the pivotal language in most conferences and publications. My intention is not to argue with this position -- a pivotal language is needed -- but to understand what are the main problems raised by writing and communicating in a language that is not the one in which the work is done.
English speakers themselves must question the meaning of words, sometimes neologisms, used by a non-English speaker. Of course, what is at stake is not the words but the meaning they convey. These issues are being addressed in the study of learning mathematics in a second language, or in the study of the variety and variability of teachers' vocabularies in different languages.
As researchers the issue is somewhat different. In particular, we must coin words and expressions to name phenomena or concepts in our own working language and then the challenge of translating them, or to understand words and expressions specific to the domain coming from another cultural and linguistic environment-- sometimes via the pivotal language.
I am preparing a short essay on these issues. I will appreciate your contributions, hence my questions:
Do you have examples to share or any particular experience? What do you think about the reasons for these difficulties and the impact they may have on your own communication?
Hello everyone
I am working on a human cell-line of Oligodendrocyte Precursor cell (OPCs) called MHB.
Results of my immunocytochemistry experiments showed that these cells express NG2, and don’t express CNPase or MBP, confirming their progenitor stage.
I am trying to mature these cells to myelin producing oligodendrocytes expressing MBP, MOG, GalC; but most of the publications focus on the primary OPCs, and I couldn’t find any protocols to make OPCs cell-lines mature. If you are working in this field or have an experience on this, I would truly appreciate your comments and guidance.
Hello,
I am currently working with BSA (UniProtKB - P02769 (ALBU_BOVIN)) at different pH for zeta potential measurements. I am therefore interested in its charge as a function of pH and its pI. I find in all the publications values of pI around 4.5 whereas with ProtPi and Expasy I get rather 5.9. Does anyone have an explanation?
Thank you for your help
Often times, we are tasked to assess the quality of publications - eg in research grants, faculty promotions, etc. The conundrum is whether to consider the quality of the journal more significant or the researchers' records.
My article is about political sciences.
Currently, in my country, tachographs are installed only on vehicles carrying out international traffic (AETR agreement). When transporting inside the country, no devices are used to monitor the work time of drivers. Tell me, where I can see publications on the assessment of accidents before and after the introduction of tachographs (or other control devices) for transportation inside the country? Where can I see the methodology for proving the need to introduce tachographs? any information on this topic?
I am planning an epidemiological study during my PhD and would like to include participants who only speak Turkish, Dari, or Farsi. I tried to contact firstauthors of publications but unfortunately haven't had any replies. I would be very grateful to anyone willing and able to share those language versions.
Hi,
I want to do a meta analysis from GWAS and publications. For the GWAS studies, I only have the beta value, p value and total number of samples while for the publications I have sufficient data that could be used to calculate effect size.
Is there a way to compute effect size from only the beta, pval and N?
If not, is there any way to calculate beta using the mean, SEM and N of cases and controls from publications?
Thanks in advance!
Hi, I plan to knock down a gene in immortalized keratinocyte (Ker-CT from ATCC). In the spec sheet, it was mentioned that these cells were immortalized with h-Tert and CDK4 carrying puromycin as their selection marker. Theoretically, it would be safer to select different selection antibiotics, however puromycin is the only one available for my gene of interest.
Has anyone transfected/ transduced Ker-CT with puromycin as selection marker? Is the selection accurate? I had seen publications where puromycin is used as the selection marker in Ker-CT, but would like to gather more information/ feedback. Thanks!
In many publications etc. when discussing about centrifuging parameters (in g) you can see the x before the unit g. When you want to say that some distance is for example 100 m, you don't have to say it is 100 times one meter so you don't put 100 x m. So why is the x put in front of g almost everywhere? Is it to do that it is not an SI-unit or something? I can't remember seeing such a way of writing it with an times symbol x in front of other non-SI-units. This might be a very minute issue, but I would like to understand this or then just start to write it without the x if it doesn't make sense.
Is this publication real or is it more of an academic scam? The image below is the text of the email sent to me by the publisher please guide me?
Interestingly, this email did not go to the spam folder. This email also has a professional signature; So that it contains postal address, telephone number, website address, etc. I was a little excited at first, but then I started searching on Google. Searching the Persian web, I found two types of news about these publications: I found some news in which it was proudly announced that Master So-and-so's book had been published in English by Lambert International Publications in Germany. Another piece of news was a message of congratulations and gratitude on a large banner on one of the city billboards. Meanwhile, two or three people wrote articles against Lambert Publications, calling them a form of academic fraud and warning others in their blogs and posts not to fall into the trap of these publications.
I am working on a project that is likely to predict and analysis humungous rasters and datasets. The largest I have worked with are 15 times smaller. So, it would help if anybody could suggests any studies or publications who done analysis with such large raster. It would be great, if you could share your experience too and how you may have overcome the size of the rasters in your analysis.
Of late, I came across some publications in which the authors used pirated photographs (obtained from secondary sources) very cleverly without any acknowledgement, as if these were shot by the authors themselves! I would like to know whether such photo-piracy amounts to plagiarism.
What are the most effective and sustainable measures to prevent leaching from glass (precursor)-based geopolymer? Please recommend your suggestions and publications. Thanks.
Theoretically, there should be as few restrictions as possible in such matters in the world of science. Science should develop in an unhampered way. Whether less restrictions and regulations can be developed to a greater extent by innovative solutions.
On the other hand, the more authors who have written a specific publication together, the more difficult it is to objectively evaluate the contribution of individual co-authors to the creation of a specific publication. There are several pages of scientific articles that have been written by over 100 authors. Usually, these are also members of research teams for large-scale research projects.
In addition, in the last dozen or so years, research has shown that the quantitative proportion of single-author scientific texts is falling relative to the total of scientific publications being produced. Therefore, more scientific multi-authorial publications have been created in recent years in comparison to single-author ones. What are the reasons?
In the light of the above, the following questions arise:
Why do more and more scientists prefer to publish in multi-author scientific texts than single-author ones? Is the main determinant of the increase of established research teams, whose members conduct similar or the same research projects and jointly publish research results?
In addition, new questions arise in connection with the development of new information technologies:
What is the importance of using the internet to popularize scientific knowledge? Does online information globalization have its share in this matter? Can publication in multi-author texts increase the scope in terms of popularizing specific scientific knowledge, developed new research concepts, results of research carried out, etc. using new online media, including online science portals? Is this the probability of developing scientific cooperation on a national, but also international and global scale? Are there any opportunities for the citation of scientific publications?
Do you agree with me on the above matter?
In the context of the above issues, I am asking you the following question:
Why do more and more scientists prefer to publish in multi-author scientific texts than single-author ones?
Please reply
I invite you to the discussion
Thank you very much
Best wishes
Scientific capacity or scientific exploitation?
When a researcher (placed in "favorable conditions") supervises many young (gifted) researchers in the framework of a PhD or otherwise and thus obtains many publications as co-author, can we consider that this is a particular capacity to train young researchers or a scientific exploitation of young researchers (especially if all the work is done by these young people)?
Hello everyone. I have conducted PL measurements on CsPbBr3 nanocrystals at 10 K. I observed a significant power-dependent blueshift (~50 meV) and spectral broadening as the laser power was raised from 1 W/cm^2 to 30 W/cm^2. I estimated that the range of induced carrier densities is around 10^14 to 10^15 cm^-3.
Given the typical temperature-dependent shift of the PL energy in this material, a 50 meV blue shift could be explained by an increase in temperature of around 150 K. However, I do not have any feeling for how strong the laser-induced heating should be in this material, under the given conditions.
As such, I was wondering if there was a simple way to confirm or dismiss the laser-heating argument in this situation.
Any insight or suggestions of relevant publications on this topic would be highly appreciated.
While this is technically very feasible, I cannot find any relevant literature by a Google search.
I am looking for collaborators from Europe/US/UK/UAE for a series of publications (only SCI) in the fields of Internet of Things, Blockchain, Quantum Computing and Game Theory.
Interested may contact or reply.
Thank you in advance.
I have read many publications using FE model to study interfacial behaviour. And Few of them considered matrix viscoelastic effect in the studies. I seems that most authors avoid to discuss about this.
I am confused and trying to understand the capacitance of an electrode material and the double layer capacitance due to charges developing around an electrode in contact with an electrolyte. Many publications state capacitance calculated from EIS spectra using the semi-circle region of the Nyquist diagram, while others refer to capacitance calculated from the low frequency region, but it is hardly clear what exactly they are referring to. Please help me to clear this confusion.
Respected researchers i am currently involved in making solid solutions of carbide powders.I am aware of calculations in weight percent.But a lot of publications are mentioning cermet composition in volume percent.
Please find the enclosed attachment.I am trying to guess their sample respective weights.
For e.g my sample of Nbc12Ni for a 25g samples in 3g Ni and 22g Nbc..In wt%?
I am curious about the calulations done in the article.
FOr eg a Cermet Nbc12Ni The binder volume is 12% and they have calculated weight percent as Nbc13.49Ni with Total density 7.92g/cm3(of the mixed unsintered powders i assume)
Can someone explain how did they calculate?and how can i trace back to their sample composition in Grams?
Cermet Binder volume Composition wt% Total density
NbC12Ni10VC 12 Ni 10 VC NbC-13.85 Ni-7.40VC 7.72
NbC12Ni15VC 12 Ni 15 VC NbC-14.04 Ni-11.25VC 7.61
The significance of Vol% compositions in my thoughts are not a great measure because the powders have not been pressed yet.
Would be obliged if som1 can explain this calculation methodology.
Every higher education institution has its publication award/ incentive system. Some use the Quartile category, some Clarivate Analytics. But the application differs from university to university. I have also seen Impact Factor base calculation of incentive payment for academic publication in some universities. My request here is that could you please share the publication award system that you use in your institution? The thing is that there are many methods to calculate it, but we don't know which one is much more systematic and beneficial for our institution, too. Thanks in advance for answering my question.
Hello everyone! Out of curiosity: how many publications did you have just before your career as a postdoc started? And how many were first-author publications? This is not often talked about in academia, although the rat race for publications is (sadly) omnipresent in the current system. For those who are doing a PhD and aspire an academic career, this can feel quite attainable. So it would be good for me to get some responses from those who are further ahead on the trajectory to get a realistic view on what the necessary requirements are to achieve the same. Thanks a lot!
One of my paper is been read for more than 1000 times and no citations still, any reason for that? OR how do improve citations? I see many a times, most of the professors conference paper have more citations than the journal publications.? Any reason for that....

Hello everyone,
I would like to prepare Ni and/or Co nanoparticles as part of my Ph.D. work and found that some publications reported the formation of PtNi or PtCo alloys using the polyol method. Is it possible to do so? I thought Ni and Co ions can't be reduced by hydrogen or ethylene glycol. Any help or guidance in this regard is greatly appreciated.

- Many scientific gathering were already organized when COVID-19 pandemic was announced and many traveling arrangements were cancelled.
- How the organizations responsible for these scientific gathering are going to manage the already organized conferences and symposiums, etc.?
- How this pandemic affects the Research and Innovation in terms of dissemination and sharing work and also how the publication of work has been managed?
Hello! I am a 1st year PhD student, and am attempting to isolate three different types of ganglion cells from Nematostella vectensis for some in vitro studies. I have been through a few different publications to see how others had done it, and I have a pretty good idea of how to obtain a general culture of different cells, but I am not sure how to select and isolate ganglion cells to try and make a stable line. If anyone has any advice on how to do this, I would greatly appreciate your feedback!
I couldn't find sufficient papers/articles/reports for review, and i am looking for help from the community.
I just looked up one of my publications on RG and noticed a new section ("Methods"), just after the abstract – and I'm really curious as to why the method suggested is "diagnosis", rather than "qualitive methods", "interviews" or "depth-hermeneutics", which are more relevant to my paper:
It seems there is an automated process behind it from RG perhaps drawing on certain concepts from the abstract ("top methods in this publication") – "diagnosis" in my case. I think we should be able to override/edit this automation, as the current function is misleading, in my view. It would be really usfeul if this new methods function WORKED and we could use it to profile our methods and link to other research based on similar methodologies!
The impact factor (JCR) of most journals has been constantly increasing. Thus, the debate arises, are publications having more impact or is this due to the large number of articles published daily?
Given this background, is JCR remaining the main measure of impact?
I would like to do single cell sequencing of DNA and total RNA in the same cell . My interests on noncoding RNAs. Do you know any cmany doing that? In the publications I read about SIDR-seq. But I did not find commerical one.

This is their message: I went through your list of recent publications and it is impressive. We are interested in publishing a book of your works.
There are scholars who publish in predatory journals and use such publications for academic promotion purposes. What should be done about this and what experiences do you have in this regard?
In most times researchers have submitted or accepted papers but not published yet. What is the suitable way to include them in your CV if you gonna apply for a grant or something like that?
If any researcher published his/her papers in journals that are not indexed, will the researcher get any benefits of such publication?
Is there any difference in the value/credit of publication between paid and free publications in journals?

ISI and Scopus indexed journals have been considered as having high quality peer-reviewed publications. Why do they get such good scientific reputation? Does it mean that non-ISI-indexed journals are not recommended for publication?
Hi everyone. I am requesting for researchers willing to share with me their recent publications on AMR in the dairy sector. I would like to engage and collaborate with researchers in this area.

Six sigma
Engineering education
I have also published articles in this fields, but I want more publications through scientific teams
I am working on free surface flows and pulmonary/biofluid mechanics. More specifically, focus is on theoretical and experimental investigations of ventilator-induced lung injury. I also have some publications in this area. I want to work with a group of researchers who have research background matching with me. I have done my previous theoretical work using COMSOL and MATLAB together. I shall be very thankful.
I am seeking two to four dedicated researchers to join me on several high-quality papers which will be submitted to SSCI and A journals.
The researcher should at least have a
1. PhD
2. 3 publications (min. Q2) in Scopus Journals.
3. knowledge in Finance preferably in Fintech.
4. committed to complete the tasks within the timeframe.
5. Required tasks will be 6 - 8 pages in terms of length.
The papers will be published later this year.
Kind Regards,
Recently, I have been using the Invitrogen™ LIVE/DEAD™ Viability/Cytotoxicity Kit according to the Fluorescence Microplate Protocol.
Although it is not written in the protocol, I also prepared dead and live wells containing calcein-AM and ethidium homodimer-1 separately as it is needed in the calculation part.
But there is a part about the test results that I really couldn't figure out.
According to the results, the value I get is more than 100 when I sum up the percentages of the living cells and dead cells for the same well.
Commonly, I expect some cells to die, some cells to survive, but some cells to go into apoptosis.
When I reviewed the publications, I saw that most publications use the microscopy method. In fact, I read a few comments about the microplate protocol is not working properly in this assay.
I wonder is there anyone who has had the same problem before or if I am making a mistake while applying the protocol?
I would like to replace the list of publications in my resume with a simple link (URL) pointing to my publications in ResearchGate. I am surprised not to have found that.
I can't find any publications on relative abundance of soil microbial communities at species level. I have found papers mostly on phylum and genus level. Then I came across only one study that discussed the bacterial community structures in (a) phylum level, (b) class level, (c) order level, (d) family level and (e) genus level in bioreactor sludge that I am attaching here under to be more clear about my query. I have analyzed my data at all these levels including species level but I cannot find any literature on it. Either I am not doing it right or not searching it right. If you are interested in abundance of a specific specie then how to do it ?
I want to make photographs of my plant tissue cultures for publications.
Hello,
Does anyone have the publication or know where to get it?
Dear Community,
I am interested in receiving feedback from people that finished their PhDs, but also from people judging the candidacies for academic positions.
As PhDs we all heard about the famous "Publish or perish" to describe the importance to publish during your PhD if you want to get a job more easily when finishing. I am asking mostly in social sciences because it is my field, but I am also interested in receiving feedback from other fields as well.
The time and effort we put in publications during our PhD, is it worth the struggle? Is it really making things easier when applying for academic positions, or is the teaching experience more important for instance? Many colleagues ask themselves this question. I am not denying the importance to publish your research, but I am curious to see how things are presented in other countries, universities, and fields.
I found out that some professors are very concerned about ones 1st and 2nd degree graded , while others seem impressed about publications.
I hope there are generous academic journal publications who believe in my academic ideas and insights.
I am gladly interested if there will be willing publications all over the world who would like my essay articles, full research to be engaged in publications, may it be online or hard copy.
They are unpublished so far.
Thanks for the opportunity.
How did Black writers and Black owned publications contribute to and influence the change in social order in Bronzeville in the 1930s through the 1950s during the period known as the Black Chicago Renaissance?

I am doing the multiplex Taqman qPCR 1:10 dilution standard curve for my standard curve. I use the gDNA as my template, and I have two genes: Gene A and gene B. According to the publications, these two genes should have a similar Ct value, which the ratio of Gene A: Gene B is about 1:1. I used what people have used in their publications (regents and sequences), and my Taqman probe and primers are specific (already blast them). The sample has good DNA quality. However, the starting point (intercept region) is not the same in my standard curve plot. I am wondering whether the qPCR machine gives amplify one gene more than the other one.
I mean whether articles under review can be added to the resume or not.
With the acceleration of research pace, and highly increased open access outlets, I recommend that all published articles be released for public free of charge after 5 years from the date of its publications. This will make it is easier for third world counties' researcher to access such documents and help promote their research activities.
I have obtained zpe corrected energies for reactant, TS and product states. I can plot a general scattered plot using MS Excel (but not that great). I would like to know how to plot a reaction profile as one would find in publications.
I have also attached my suggested excel worksheet below.
Thank you

P.S. I need to compare several candidate profiles overlapped so using IRC method wasn't successful.
If a project would be added from the institutional profile, we would have a direct link (project-institution). Then, we would add the publications linked to the project and authored by the researchers affiliated to that institution.
At the moment, the projects are directly linked to the researcher profile and their publications (the institution is linked to the projects only through the researcher profile).
Obviously, it would be good if our work would be open for access by anyone. Publishing open access, however, is expensive especially for most researchers in developing countries. Would you mind sharing insights on how you promote your work?
Every year, predatory journals prey on scholars. Why can't each country's government authorities stop down predatory journal publications?

I am looking for a research paper regarding the Bill of materials in the Aircraft Industries. Bill of materials in Automobile industries. Please recommend me some articles / papers / publications.
I wish to get your opinion about publishing single new species (with or without molecular data* /and single strain) or new records in an International Journal of repute.
Recently, we have seen many reputed journals are discouraging single new species publications.
Your observations and recommendations of best journals (not having page charges and possibly having some Impact Factor) for single new species and new records publications would help budding mycologists.
*Without molecular data meant for non-cultivable (non-culturable) fungi.
I am looking for publications, researches, surveys or expert opinions on the situation in regards to implementation of the TIR convention in the UK and EU, especially after Brexit ?
I am trying to run some lipid analysis on ground coral samples. I checked some publications and I noticed that many publications report chloroform as the main reagent, but the lab where I should run the analysis uses dichloromethane. I would like to know if using dichloromethane instead of chloroform could affect my results. Any suggestions?
Understanding the Quartiles of the Journals
The journal's quartiles assist us in determining the journal's reliability and quality. It's based on the Scimago Journal Ranking (SJR), which isn't the same as the impact factor.
SJR was developed by a research group in the 2000s using Scopus data. Unlike Impact Factor, SJR publishes open access and covers a wider spectrum of publications. SJR Scopus considers the overall number of citations as well as the weight of each reference. As a result, SJR is utilized to determine the journal's quartile.
A high quartile in Scopus means that the journal sets research trends, and its authors are experts in their field.
If a journal is in the Q2 range, it does not imply that all research papers from all fields will be given Q2 credibility. It will only apply to selected specializations dependent on the scope of the journal.
Quartiles are bands of serial titles that have been grouped together because they occupy a similar position within their subject categories.
The quartiles are:
Quartile 1: serial titles in 99-75th percentiles
Quartile 2: serial titles in 74-50th percentiles
Quartile 3: serial titles in 49-25th percentiles
Quartile 4: serial titles in 24-0 percentiles
For the purpose of MBE (molecular beam epitaxy) a c-plane (0001) flat polished sapphire is to be annealed. What are the right conditions (annealing gas, temperature, time) to obtain an optimally smooth surface?
I have tried different temperatures and times and peformed afm-measurements. The resulting images show a surface with smooth steps, that "fuzz" out with longer annealing times (see images). I haven't seen this fuzzyness in a lot of publications. What is the origin and how does one prevent this behavior?
I look in context of a study about working modes of scientific bodies for publications that describe / analyse the working modes that are inherent to the practices of the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS) respectively the International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS). Can anybody point me to publications, please? - best regards, Martin

Back in 2002, Juan Enriquez and Rodrigo Martinez published a Harvard Business School Working Paper entitled " Biotechonomy 1.0: A Rough Map of Biodata Flow", a copy of which I have tried to find for years. There is a map that Enriquez shows in a TED talk, in which he proves how most of the terabytes of flow of biodata information remain within a few countries and a few IP addresses.
Is anybody aware of similar studies and publications? Is anybody measuring the amount of biodata flow across countries? How many terabytes of information flow in and out of Genbank to other places on a monthly or yearly basis? Are there any reproducible methods I could follow?
As part of my research objective on the productivity of scientific work I would like to have an answer to the following question from anyone.
Based on a resent question; what is the difference between a saprophyte and a saprotroph?
In Greek saprophyte would be saprós (“putrid; decayed; rotten”) and phyte ("plant") thus meaning a plant that will live of dead or decaying organic matter. Saprotroph on the other hand, would be saprós (“putrid; decayed; rotten”) and trophē (“food; nourishment”) and thus include all organism with this lifestyle.
It seems as if the term saprophyte would be incorrect as plants are in actuality not saprophytic. The same problem comes in with saprophytic vs saprotrophic. My concern is this, why were we taught that "saprophytic" or saprotrophic fungi are saprophytes as this would seem to be incorrect. Recent publications and textbooks still refer to saprophytes. Has the term saprophyte been abolished or regardless of the difference we now consider saprophyte and saprotroph as synonyms?
Dear,
I need publications to discuss the "adaptation" of native (local) animal breeds to harsh environmental conditions. In a different aspect than usual. In particular, under poor feeding conditions when cows shorten lactation and not (or slightly) lose body weight. Which is the opposite to Holstein-Friesian and other high-yielding breeds. I know this is an archaic topic. I have some publications about adaptation of African breeds but there it rather concerns heat stress. Since it can be difficult to discuss about cattle I will be satisfied with other ruminant species as well.
I'm currently looking for a good textbook for bioinformatics related to Insilico practices. can anyone suggest a good one. prefer the UK, USA publications. thank you.
Scholar Metrics provide an easy way for authors to quickly gauge the visibility and influence of recent articles in scholarly publications. Today, we are releasing the 2021 version of Scholar Metrics. This release covers articles published in 2016–2020 and includes citations from all articles that were indexed in Google Scholar as of July 2020.
Link:
Scholar Metrics include journals from websites that follow our inclusion guidelines and selected conferences in Engineering & Computer Science. Publications with fewer than 100 articles in 2016-2020, or publications that received no citations over these years are not included.
You can browse publications in specific categories such as Computational Linguistics, Hematology, or Religion as well as broad areas like Engineering & Computer Science or Humanities, Literature & Arts . You will see the top 20 publications ordered by their five-year h-index and h-median metrics. You also can browse the top 100 publications in several languages - for example, Portuguese and Spanish. For each publication, you can view the top papers by clicking on the h5-index.
Scholar Metrics include a large number of publications beyond those listed on the per-category and per-language pages.

Are there any recommendations for non-urban areas (e.g. mountains area) where the deformations are well known and documented in publications (similar to in Mexico City)?
How would you recommend including (grey) literature refered to during (expert) interviews in your results? I'm interested in how you've handled this in published work. I understand you can do it in varying ways dependent on your topic and types of respondents but would like to know more about your experiences. Can you share any such publications please?
Years ago I had an experience regarding fake account in RG. The user of the account claimed to be my MS supervisor and claimed his (my supervisor) publications. I reported the case several times to the RG admins, but up to this time, no any action taken by the RG admins.
I wonder if RG admins are doing something to reduce the existence of fake accounts, because I realized that there is a lot of fake RG accounts in existence.
Are sources of global or national financial, economic, debt, monetary and financial crises described and explained in recent years in scientific publications taken into account in financial supervision institutions in shaping prudential instruments, improving financial system security systems in order to increase this level of security and reduce risk potential future occurrence of similar, similar financial and economic crises, etc., thus improving the sustainable economic development of the country and the global economy?
Do you know examples of countries in which in recent years institutions of supervision over the financial system while shaping prudential instruments, improving financial systems security systems took into account the sources of global or national financial, economic, debt and monetary crises described and explained in recent years in scientific publications e.t.c.?
What types of prudential instruments, instruments of the process of improving financial risk management, including credit, liquidity, currency, debt or other, operational, market, etc. were improved by financial supervisors after the global financial crisis in 2008, which were proposed in the last years in scientific publications?
Is the importance of improving the credit risk management processes in financial institutions growing due to the continuation of processes and market situations occurring on financial markets, including capital markets, stock exchanges, used business practices in investment banking, forecasted decline in the global economic growth rate in 2019, emerging considerations about the subsequent re-evaluation of securities valuations, etc.?
Please, answer, comments.
I invite you to the discussion.
Best wishes
