This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 February 2019.
All research outputs
#5,750,900
of 26,460,266 outputs
Outputs from Conservation Biology
#2,081
of 4,039 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#24,373
of 172,294 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Conservation Biology
#9
of 21 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 26,460,266 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 75th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,039 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 24.0. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% 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 172,294 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 80% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 21 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 57% of its contemporaries.
