Citation Tracker
Find, Check, Track
The Scopus Citation Tracker is the simple way to find, check and track citation data. Available to anyone with a Scopus subscription, it lets you track data year by year for a specific author or topic.
With the Scopus Citation Tracker you can evaluate:
- The most highly cited author in a field and check that author's relevance
- The real-time citation data of articles and authors of interest
- What topics are hot in familiar or unfamiliar subject areas
- What subjects are being cited by other subjects
You are in control
The Scopus Citation Tracker puts you in control of the articles and years to evaluate. It's the easiest and quickest way to gain insight into research trends and assess the influence of articles and authors. You can set up email alerts that notify you when articles/authors of interest receive new citations and you can easily export data to other applications for further analysis.
