“…Our study focuses on the analysis of words and expressions in Twitter user bios as a proxy of who tweet climate change research papers since assessing who share scholarly documents at a larger scale entails reducing identity to specific markers [ 28 , 46 ]. We hypothesize that the expressions employed by users to describe themselves act as identity markers through which they engage with other users [ 50 ]. Building on previous work on the identification of users sharing scholarly documents on Twitter, we identified 8 relevant categories of markers–academia, communication, political, professionnal, personal, organizations, publishers, and bots–to classify who tweet climate change research papers [ 5 , 16 , 28 , 51 ].…”

As social issues like climate change become increasingly salient, digital traces left by scholarly documents can be used to assess their reach outside of academia. Our research examine who shared climate change research papers on Twitter by looking at the expressions used in profile descriptions. We categorized users in eight categories (academia, communication, political, professional, personal, organization, bots and publishers) associated to specific expressions. Results indicate how diverse publics may be represented in the communication of scholarly documents on Twitter. Supplementing our word detection analysis with qualitative assessments of the results, we highlight how the presence of unique or multiple categorizations in textual Twitter descriptions provides evidence of the publics of research in specific contexts. Our results show a more substantial communication by academics and organizations for papers published in 2016, whereas the general public comparatively participated more in 2015. Overall, there is significant participation of publics outside of academia in the communication of climate change research articles on Twitter, although the extent to which these publics participate varies between individual papers. This means that papers circulate in specific communities which need to be assessed to understand the reach of research on social media. Furthermore, the flexibility of our method provide means for research assessment that consider the contextuality and plurality of publics involved on Twitter.

Les « EU tweetups » sont des rencontres « hors ligne » d’usagers de Twitter qui ont en commun un intérêt marqué pour les questions européennes, l’envie de ne pas se limiter au dispositif pour en discuter et généralement un ancrage (plus ou moins fort) dans la « bulle européenne » à Bruxelles. L’analyse de cette initiative permet de mettre en avant le rôle du dispositif Twitter dans la construction de l’identité professionnelle. Il devient ainsi un lieu de construction de l’expertise pour des professionnels en situation de marginalité dans l’environnement professionnel européen particulièrement concurrentiel qui construisent leur visibilité et leur notoriété sur le dispositif. Leur parole reste néanmoins contrainte et semble s’inscrire dans les discours existants, souvent institutionnels, sur l’Europe.
