38.Estimate research activity of the scientist using Scopus.What information can be obtained, give an example.
Scopus is the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature: scientific journals, books and conference proceedings. Delivering a comprehensive overview of the world's research output in the fields of science, technology, medicine, social sciences, and arts and humanities, Scopus features smart tools to track, analyze and visualize research.
As research becomes increasingly global, interdisciplinary and collaborative, you can make sure that critical research from around the world is not missed when you choose Scopus. Based on the results of the search, the system issues various profiles of the organization. Profile - is the combined information for a particular organization, where The number of articles written by the authors of the organization is presented for profile of the organization, the options for writing the name of the organization, which are found in these articles, information on the citing of these articles, information on co-authors of articles, information on journals in which these articles and other information were published.
In advanced search: The search results are displayed in a table format, so you can easy to view and sort by columns: Year, Document Relevance, Author (s), Source Title and Cited by .
For example: We will enter a search for the name of the scientist that we need, for example, Nill. The site will give us all the scientists with the name Nill. Together with scientists you can see the organizations of these scientists. Choose the right scientist for us. After that, a page opens where you can see the history of publication and citing in the form of a graph. In the graph, you can estimate the ratio of quoting to publications, and see the peak of the work of the scientist. In the right corner you can see the index of the hirsch of the scientist. Below the Hirsch index, you can see all the publications. Then you can see the total number citations.
39 Estimate research activity of the scientist, using Web of Science. What information can be obtained, give an example.
WebofScience (WOS) is the most authoritative analytical and citation database of journal articles in the world, combining 3 databases: Science / SocialSciences / Arts & HumanitiesCitationIndex. These resources do not contain full texts of articles, but they include references to the full texts in the sources and lists of all the bibliographic references found in each publication, which allows obtaining in the shortest possible time the most complete bibliography on the topic of interest (the depth of the archive is 20 years). Also on the start page there is a link, not an EndNote resource, that provides quick and easy information gathering for links from a wide range of sources, such as PubMed and WebofKnowledge, using direct upload, online search and import of text files.
Impact factor must be taken into account, first of all, the scientific journal, since it is a formal numerical indicator of its importance. The impact factor of a scientific journal is calculated every year by the basis of scientific citation WebofScience. The impact factor shows how many times on average each article published in the journal is cited during the two following years after its publication. It is not difficult to understand what significance for the authors of scientific articles has the impact factor of the magazine in which they are published, since this indicator most directly affects the international scientific status of authors of a specific scientific publication.
By subject filling, WebofScience belongs to the category of multidisciplinary, covering almost all fields of knowledge. This database of scientific citations gives an opportunity to quickly obtain bibliometric information on various indicators - countries, journals, organizations, subject areas, etc. That's why publications in the journals indexed by WebofScience are so important.
