This page shows the connectivity of water research between methods and water budget. The citation network below is based on the estimated degree of connectivity which is the probability that one water budget resource (node) is cited by other nodes. It is measured by directional citations between articles’ methods and water budget. The direction of the edges can be viewed by hovering over the edges that link one water budget topic or method to another. The edge thickness represents connectivity proportion, and the node size represents research volume. Please note that adjusting the connectivity using the drop-down menu rescales the edges, so the smaller edges may look larger in the network for legibility purposes.
To explore the degree of connectivity between water budget methods:
Click the drop-down menu to filter connections by citation volume range.
All connections shows all of the connections.
The strong connections button shows topics that have a maximum degree of connectivity ranging from 4% to 5%.
The medium connections button shows topics that have a medium degree of connectivity ranging from 2% to 4%.
The weak connections button shows topics that have a minimum degree of connectivity of less than 2%.
Hover over the nodes to view info about the topic type, NSF General Topic, NSF Specific Topic, weighted in-degree, weighted out-degree, number of articles, and the most- and least-cited topics.
Hover over the edges to show connected topics, the edge direction, and their respective citation proportions. The weighted in-degree is the number of incoming topics and the weighted out-degree is the number of outgoing topics.
