Abstract

HUERTA, Miguel Angel; JESUS, Melba De  and  CABELLO-PASINI, Alejandro. A bibliometric analysis for Ciencias Marinas 45 years after its inception. Cienc. mar [online]. 2019, vol.45, n.1, pp.17-22.  Epub July 30, 2021. ISSN 0185-3880.  https://doi.org/10.7773/cm.v45i1.2993.

To evaluate the growth of our journal, Ciencias Marinas, over the years since its inclusion for indexing in 2 major international databases, we performed a joint analysis of 8 bibliometric indicators: impact factor, source normalized impact per paper (SNIP), CiteScore, SCImago Journal Rank (SJR), cites per document, total cites, percent international collaboration, and h-index. In general, 6 of the 8 indicators suggest that growth for Ciencias Marinas can be qualified somewhere between satisfactory and good. The other 2 indicators, SNIP (1999-2017) and SJR (2010-2017), did not show significant changes for the time period analyzed.

Keywords : Ciencias Marinas; impact factor; scientific community; publication.
