The paper analyzes the importance of geological knowledge for solving a wide range of practical problems. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the results of the research of scientists and specialists in 2012–2018 in Geology, Geophysics, Geography, Mining, Geodesy and cartography on the basis of RSCI databases (Russian science citation index). The analysis was carried out taking into account a number of scientometric indicators: the publication activity of researchers – the annual number of their publications, as well as the citation of these publications and the demand for the results of their work. Features of publication activity are revealed: high values of its indicators for Geology and Geophysics and minimum values – for Geodesy and cartography; thus the number of publications on Geography and Mining approximately coincide. For Geology, there is stability in the number of publications since 2015, while in other analyzed industries there is a decline in the number of publications since 2017. Citation rates for all years under review are continuously decreasing. At the same time, in the field of Geophysics, citation rates are 3–4 times higher than similar indicators for Geography, and 7–9 times – indicators for Mining. The most popular are the results of research in Geophysics, the least – in the field of Geodesy and cartography. НАУКОМЕТРИЯ. БИБЛИОМЕТРИЯ Научные и технические библиотеки, 2020, No 2 93 At the same time, if the annual demand for the results of studies in Geophysics exceeds similar indicators for Geography by 15–20%, for Geodesy and cartography – about 1.5 times. Low demand for all areas of research in 2018. The reason is obviously the same as for the small citation indicators this year: the delayed "response" of the scientific community to the publications of the current year.

Analysis of the demand for the results of scientific activity in the main areas of Earth Sciences

Bearing in mind the highly important role that leadership has in modern business environment, and launching from the interconnected relationship between leadership and management; this research aimed at highlighting how strategic leadership can support strategic management function and in a university environment. Researcher adopted the five functions of strategic management which included (planning, organizing, staffing, leading and controlling). Through the adoption of quantitative approach and building a questionnaire to be the study tool; (137) individuals responded to an online uploaded questionnaire and SPSS was used in order to screen and analyzed collected primary data. Utilizing mean, standard deviation and linear regression, results indicated that characteristics of strategic leadership were able to support all functions of strategic management based on the common goals that both leadership and management had from a strategic perspective. Results of study accepted main hypothesis and agreed on the fact that strategic leadership supports functions of strategic management with an R value of .860 and a correlation coefficient of 74%. Concerning functions of strategic management which were mostly supported by strategic leadership; results indicated that staffing was the most positively influenced function of strategic management scoring an R value of .936 with a correlation coefficient of 87.6%. Study recommended that risk management in all its forms and strategies is the most important fact in this scheme, given that strategic management is mostly based on managing in an unpredictable environment that is unstable and risky. Practical contribution of current study can be summed in the fact that it could be a source for leaders to deeply understand what strategic leadership is and how it can help strategic management be applied correctly in an educational environment.
