The data above were extracted from Essential Science
Indicators database from Clarivate. This database, currently
covering the period January 1998 through August 2008, surveys only
journal articles (original research reports and review articles)
indexed by Clarivate. Articles are assigned to a category based
on the journals in which they were published and Thomson
Reuters’s journal-to-category field definition scheme. Both
articles tabulated and citation counts to those articles are for the
period indicated. Hot Papers are limited to those articles published in
the last two years. A paper is selected as a hot paper if it meets a
citation frequency threshold determined for its field and bi-monthly
group. Citation frequency distributions are compiled for each field and
cohort. Thresholds are set by finding the closest citation count that
would select the top fraction of papers in each field and period. The
fraction is set to retrieve about 0.1% of papers.
