Authors : Dr. S. Baskaran
The present chapter is aimed at analyzing the global publication trends on geophysics using Web of Science database for the period 2010-2019. A total of 3304 publications were published in the field and the average number of publications published per year was 330.4. The highest number of publications 329 was published in 2019 and the lowest number of publications 129 in 2011. Relative Growth Rate is decreasing throughout the study period and corresponding Doubling time is increasing. Average RGR is 0.22 and corresponding Doubling time is 4.62. The web of science database allows us to refine the results in terms of types of publications, publication years, top authors, top countries, top organizations, most influential source titles, language and subjects.
