of 5,012 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,698
of 25,805 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Geology
#4
of 20 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 28,840,878 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 72nd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,012 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 23.0. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 25,805 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 20 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
