Comparing Research at Nordic Universities using Bibliometric Indicators

The present report “Comparing Research at Nordic Universities using Bibliometric Indicators, Second report, covering the years 2000–2012” is replacing the previous report from 2011 covering the years 2000-2009, basically building on the same methodology but adding more information. In this second report, publications from the social sciences and the humanities are included (not in citation analysis), and new time intervals are applied. Both reports use data from Thomson Reuters and a Nordic network for validating the data, developing the indicators and analysing the results. The discussions in the network have been paramount for the production of this second version and the presentation of data.
