Basic Overview of Croatian Research
CROATIA: PUBLICATION OUTPUTOverall output Percentage of papers cited
Source: National Science Indicators, 1981-2007 – Deluxe version
There has been a steady publication growth in Croatia in the last couple of years.
Almost 50% of Croatian papers are cited.
CROATIA: CITATION IMPACTOverall impact Impact relative to average
Source: National Science Indicators, 1981-2007 – Deluxe version
Average citation rate or impact for Croatia has also grown quickly.
This is a relative illustration, meaning that 1 is the baseline where the country average = the world average. Croatia is marching to meet the world
average rates.
