Publication patterns of award-winning forest scientists and implications for the ERA journal ranking
Publication patterns of 79 forest scientists awarded major international
forestry prizes during 1990-2010 were compared with the journal classification
and ranking promoted as part of the 'Excellence in Research for Australia'
(ERA) by the Australian Research Council. The data revealed that these
scientists exhibited an elite publication performance during the decade before
and two decades following their first major award. An analysis of their 1703
articles in 431 journals revealed substantial differences between the journal
choices of these elite scientists and the ERA classification and ranking of
journals. Implications from these findings are that additional
cross-classifications should be added for many journals, and there should be an
adjustment to the ranking of several journals relevant to the ERA Field of
Research classified as 0705 Forestry Sciences.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, 3 tables, 49 references; Journal of Informetrics
