The geography of references in elite articles: Which countries contribute to the archives of knowledge?
This study asks the question on which national “shoulders” the world’s top-level research stands. Traditionally, the number of citations to national papers has been the evaluative measures of national scientific standings. We raise a different question: instead of analyzing the citations to a…

Snakebite Envenoming – A Combined Density Equalizing Mapping and Scientometric Analysis of the Publication History
Estimates suggest that more than 25,000 to 125,000 people die annually from snakebite envenomation worldwide. In contrast to this major disease burden, thorough bibliometric studies do not exist so far that illustrate the overall research activity over a long time span. Therefore, the…

Bounds and Inequalities Relating h -Index, g -Index, e -Index and Generalized Impact Factor: An Improvement over Existing Models
In this paper, we describe some bounds and inequalities relating -index, -index, -index, and generalized impact factor. We derive the bounds and inequalities relating these indexing parameters from their basic definitions and without assuming any continuous model to be followed by any of them. We…

A Simple Index for the High-Citation Tail of Citation Distribution to Quantify Research Performance in Countries and Institutions
Background: Conventional scientometric predictors of research performance such as the number of papers, citations, and papers in the top 1% of highly cited papers cannot be validated in terms of the number of Nobel Prize achievements across countries and institutions. The purpose of this paper is…

The Effects of Aging on Researchers' Publication and Citation Patterns
The average age at which U.S. researchers receive their first grant from NIH has increased from 34.3 in 1970, to 41.7 in 2004. These data raise the crucial question of the effects of aging on the scientific productivity and impact of researchers. Drawing on a sizeable sample of 6,388 university…

Dynamic academic networking concept and its links with English language skills and research productivity–non-Anglophone context
Although the Science of Team Science or SciTS has already provided substantial evidence for research collaboration positive links to scientific productivity, much less is known about such links with broadly defined academic networking, especially with regard to the dilemma about forms of academic…

A fairer way to compare researchers at any career stage and in any discipline using open-access citation data
The pursuit of simple, yet fair, unbiased, and objective measures of researcher performance has occupied bibliometricians and the research community as a whole for decades. However, despite the diversity of available metrics, most are either complex to calculate or not readily applied in the most…

Citizen science with colour blindness: A case study on the Forel-Ule scale
Many citizen science projects depend on colour vision. Examples include classification of soil or water types and biological monitoring. However, up to 1 in 11 participants are colour blind. We simulate the impact of various forms of colour blindness on measurements with the Forel-Ule scale, which…
