Data

The visualisation shows articles published in 2018/19 by a few selected journals (The Lancet, Cell, Nature, Science). The data has been downloaded from Scopus in Feb 2021.

The impact factor of an academic journal reflects the average number of citations that articles published in 2018/19 received up until now (Feb 2021).
