Structural Analysis in the Collaborative Research Network —The Empirics of Chinese Meteorology Researchers
The study examines the collaboration structure in Chinese meteorology research over the last 10 years in order to develop a deeper understanding of the process by which Chinese meteorologists communicate with international colleagues. Social Network Analysis (SNA) is applied to explore the patterns of co-authorship and to identify those active internationally-recognized researchers connecting groups. Both national and international collaborations were studied and a qualitative method was adopted taking the individual researcher as the focus of analysis. The result highlights those core scientists and we can draw a conclusion that authors show a tendency to collaborate preferentially with individuals in their institution or in limited regions.
