Analysis of geomorphology citations in the last quarter of the 20th century

Auteur :
DORN, R.I.

Description :
The A. uses ISI (Institute for Scientific Information) to compile a database of 328 articles published between 1975 and 2000 that were cited 20 or more times as of 15 May 2001 in the combined indices of Science Citation, Social Science Citation, and Arts and Humanities. At the close of the 20th century, well-cited geomorphology is highly multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary. The very strong English-language bias of well-cited journal articles creates a geographical bias in study site selection, which may in turn bias geomorphic theory. Water-based research dominates well-cited papers.
