Hi everyone,
I just wanted to share this analysis in case anyone wants to generate something comparable for their LTER site.
The R code reads in a bibtex file.
You need the Zotero plug-in here
https://github.com/beloglazov/zotero-scholar-citations
to scrape citations from Google Scholar for each publication.
If you build the initial database to include Articles that were cited by each publication (we haven’t added that yet), you can build coauthor networks.
All the best,
Jenn

Subject: Re: [LTER-im] Bachelors theses
At least with Zotero, when I export to BibTeX, the Zotero tags come out in the keywords field. Do you think it's feasible to write a script that looks in the BibTeX keywords for NSF-LTER-xxx and mastersthesis/bachelorsthesis, or some variant thereof, and updates the file accordingly. When I say feasible, I mean in a way that one person could write it once and then all LTER sites could use it directly or with little modification (such as adding the local ID for SBC).

I recall that the LTER site was in Marty's original list.
One other request - it would simplify updates immensely if we can include a field for local-identifier (is NCO able to ignore it?)
using the SBC example again, I think it would look like this (pls confirm)
```
@mastersthesis{mastersthesis,
ltersite={NSF-LTER-SBC},
localidentifier={sbclter-bibliography-1246},
title={Establishing foraminifera based biofacies within shallow marine deposits, Carpinteria Slough, CA. Implications for southern California sea-level studies},
author={Bentz, M},
year={2016},
institution={University of California, Santa Barbara},
federal_support={unknown},
status={published},
peer_reviewed={unknown},
}
```

NSF is a little inconsistent, using @mastersthesis and @phdthesis, but let's go with spelled-out for clarity.

Thanks Margaret--
And yes, the intention was to follow the NSF types (except where NSF doesn't offer a type that fits something that the committee feels strongly about).
You guys will have to worry about how to get your systems to output that. I'll worry about how to get it IN.
So probably we should use this approach:
@bachthesis{bachthesis,
author = {Firstname Lastname},
title = {The title of the work},
school = {The school of the thesis},
year = 1993,
address = {The address of the publisher},
month = 7,
note = {An optional note}
}
Thanks, Marty

at SBC, we follow the NSF bibtex types, because we submit our lists for annual reports in bibtex.
I don't think NSF accepts BS-level theses, only masters and phd. if you want to add bachelor's I suggest you follow the naming convention to keep it simple.
Here are the notes and the NSF guide (linked on note).

Jim brings up a good point below about master's and PhD theses in bibtex.
Stack exchange (https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/135082/referencing-a-bacherlors-thesis) suggests the following approach:
Use @thesis as the entry type for for all theses and set type=phdthesis, mathesis, or bachthesis, as appropriate.
Anyone hit this snag yet and have a better solution?

Hi Marty,
In looking at your requests for BibTex file of publications I see you want for thesis a required field: type of undergraduate, masters and doctoral. But from what I gather BibTex does not have these types. Only @masterthesis and @phdthesis. Are there new types out? Can you point me to an example?
Thanks
Jim
thesis – an undergraduate, master’s or doctoral thesis
* Required fields: author, title, school, year, type (undergraduate, masters, doctoral)
* Optional fields: address, month, note

Dear LTER PIs,
We have gotten some feedback that some of the information requests for the LTER 40 year review are confusing and/or onerous. We therefore have significantly revised and simplified the requests for "publications" and "leveraging" as described below and on the "site information request" WWWsite.
We apologize for any confusion and anxiety that this request has caused. The leveraging request emerged from a burning desire of a couple of us on the 40 year review committee to compile information on institutional support. But this turns out to be a huge pain in the neck so we are now just asking for a list of large (>25K) grants. We will also include a few narrative examples describing how LTER grants catalyze institutional synergies at different types of sites.
For the publications, we have removed the request to make a distinction between LTER-funded and LTER-enabled work. However, there is real concern at NSF that we only include papers that are genuinely associated with LTER. There is no systematic way to do this, so we are hoping that people will take a look at their publication list and remove things that will raise questions and concerns with NSF and reviewers.
Again, sorry for any confusion and concern!

Subject: [LTER-lpi] Self Study Information Clarifications
I'd like to provide a few clarifications on recent emails. As these questions come up and we clarify, I will add notes to the online document.
Self Study Information Request
We are NOT asking sites to differentiate between LTER-funded and LTER-enabled publications. They are both included so that it is clear they may both be included as site publications. Ultimately, we would like to deriments, but is conducted by those outside of the immediate LTER community. This latter category is something that is quite valuable to NSF and they have repeatedly requested, but we don't yet have a satisfactory method for distinguishing it.
Personnel
Please:
1) add new people, with all accompanying information except username;
2) do not delete LTER participants who are no longer associated with the project, just add "former" in the eduPersonEntitlement column;
3) add the new fields to existing people. Include that information as far back as you are able, but at least for all current members.
Leveraging
Please use one line for each unique site/role/funding source combination. This will allow us to weight the Network totals by the various roles without revealing individual allocations or salaries:
So, a hypothetical example:
Site Role Funding Source FTE
NCO Lead Principal Investigator NSF-LTER 0.06
NCO Lead Principal Investigator UCSB 0.10
NCO Co-PIs NSF-LTER 0.5
NCO Other Professional NSF-LTER 2.5
NCO Other Staff NSF-LTER 0.5
NCO Other Staff NCEAS 1.5
Thanks,
Marty
