“…The RPYS-CO methodology is most appropriate in cases where it is very hard (or even impossible) to encompass a scientific field by search-term-or keyword-based searches. For example, Scheidsteger and Haunschild (2019) have used RPYS-CO for analyzing the early history of the field of solar energy meteorology, because it turned out to be very difficult to define the publication set via keyword-or search-term-based queries.…”

Bibliometric information retrieval in databases can employ different strategies. Commonly, queries are performed by searching in title, abstract and/or author keywords (author vocabulary). More advanced queries employ database keywords to search in a controlled vocabulary. Queries based on search terms can be augmented with their citing papers if a research field cannot be curtailed by the search query alone. Here, we present another strategy to discover the most important papers of a research field. A marker paper is used to reveal the most important works for the relevant community. All papers co-cited with the marker paper are analyzed using reference publication year spectroscopy (RPYS). For demonstration of the marker paper approach, density functional theory (DFT) is used as a research field. Comparisons between a prior RPYS on a publication set compiled using a keyword-based search in a controlled vocabulary and three different co-citation RPYS (RPYS-CO) analyses show very similar results. Similarities and differences are discussed.

“…The mainly interesting properties of solar radiation in this respect are its availability in time. The main instruments of solar radiation measurement had for a long time been ground-based pyranometer, integrating the incident sunlight from the hemisphere above a planar surface to the global irradiance, or pyrheliometers, detecting the direct sunlight within a narrow solid angle centred around the source of radiationthe direct beam irradiance (Saglam, 2010;Scheidsteger and Haunschild, 2020).…”

This study describes the role of solar energy meteorology in agriculture. The objectives of the study are to be familiar with solar meteorological parameters, evaluate the effects of solar meteorology on agricultural productivity and determine the solar irradiance of the Ado-Ekiti. The study was carried out using secondary data sourced for book, internet and from the Atmosphere 41 All-in-One automatic weather station of the Department of Agricultural and Bio-environmental Engineering of the Federal Polytechnic, Ado-Ekiti. Global solar radiation measured between 1995 and 2005 by Estonian Meteorological and Hydrological Institute was summarized. Also, sums and average solar irradiance in Ado-Ekiti as measured in the automatic weather station of the Department of Agricultural and Bio-Environmental Engineering, the Federal Polytechnic, Ado-Ekiti were determined and 1057 KW/m2 and 7.367 KW/m2 values were obtained for the month of August, 2020, respectively. The study concludes that these solar irradiance values are critical in the design of solar PV systems for crop drying, irrigation system and electrification of farms towards enhancing agricultural productivity in Ado-Ekiti. The study therefore recommends that the solar irradiance should be measured for a longer period of time.

“…This method has also been used to determine the inclination of journals (Ballandonne 20120199, Haunschild et al 2019b). Further, it has also been used to trace the historical origins of various fields like Higgs boson (Barth et al 2014), density functional theory (Haunschild et al 2019a), climate change research (Marx et al 2017), health equity (Yao et al 2019), solar energy meteorology (SEM) (Scheidsteger and Haunschild 2019), academic efficiency assessments (Rhaiem and Bornmann 2018), gustatory perception (Yeung 2017), citation analysis (Hou 2017), global positioning system (GPS) (Comins and Hussey 2015b), tribology (Elango et al 2016), Collection Development (Malik and Ahmadi 2020) and knowledge management (KM) (Khasseh and Mokhtarpour 2016).…”

This study aims to assess the growth in overall publication output in ethnobotany as well as provide a systematic examination of the history of ethnobotanical publications using reference publication year spectroscopy (RPYS). The study is based on 5201 papers published between 1974 and 2019 covering 290 006 non-distinct cited references (CRs), indexed in science citation index-expanded (SCI-Expanded) of web of science (WoS). The regression analysis indicated a compound annual growth rate of approximately 11% globally in ethnobotanical publications and the volume of publications doubles every approximately six years. The reference publication period was divided into four sub-periods in which a total of 31 peaks are clearly identifiable, including five peaks from the first period (earliest to 1800), ten from the second (1801-1900), nine from the third and seven from the last period . A total 44 publications were found to have been especially influential and landmark. Out of them, 31 (70%) were books and 11 (25%) were articles. Out of the 11 articles, 5 (45%) were published in the same journal (Economic Botany). The first period had the lowest number of publications (5), including classic books like the Spanish translation of Dioscorides' Materia Medica and Carolus Linnaeus' Systema naturae. Interestingly, about 30% of the studies that laid the foundation of ethnobotany and are discussed in this paper come from South Africa, pointing to the contribution of the African Continent to the foundation of the field of ethnobotany.
