Scientific impact evaluated using international bibliometric indicators

The Stanford–Elsevier database evaluates the international citation impact of scientists and their academic work using a range of standardized bibliometric indicators.

The assessment takes into account factors including citation counts, h-index, co-authorship-adjusted hm-index, standardized citation indicators, and citation impact according to authorship position.
