Based on data from Scopus, this indicators explore about 8 million records of scientists’ citations in order to rank a subset of 200,000 most-cited authors across all scientific fields. This is commonly referred to as Stanford ranking of the 2% best scientists. [3] The ranking is achieved via a composite indicator built on six citation metrics
Absolute rankings and percentile ranks are also reported for each journal in a given subject area. [1] This journal evaluation metric was launched in December 2016 as an alternative to the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) impact factor (IF), calculated by Clarivate. CiteScore is based on the citations collected for articles published in the ...
The Tethys Himalaya is an approximately 100-km-wide synclinorium formed by strongly folded and imbricated, weakly metamorphosed sedimentary series. Several nappes, termed the "North Himalayan Nappes", [18] have also been described within this unit.

Braun, Tibor et al. (1985). Scientometric indicators: a 32 country comparative evaluation of publishing performance and citation impact.
The impact factor relates to a specific time period; it is possible to calculate it for any desired period.

Journal ranking is widely used in academic circles in the evaluation of an academic journal's impact and quality. Journal rankings are intended to reflect the place of a journal within its field, the relative difficulty of being published in that journal, and the prestige associated with it.
As of 2024, Journal Citation Reports lists the journal's impact factor as 11.3, ranking it third of 253 journals in the category "Geosciences, Multidisciplinary" and sixth of 84 in "Astronomy and Astrophysics". [1] It is abstracted and indexed in Scopus, Science Citation Index Expanded, CAB Abstracts, INSPEC, and Academic Search, among others. [14]
