Bibliometrics, Citation Analysis, Degree of Collaboration, Length of Articles, Productivity of AuthorsAbstract
This bibliometric study on global warming literature aims at analyzing the research output performances of global warming literature. The analysis covers mainly the number of articles, authorship pattern, subject-wise distribution of articles, average number of pages per article, the degree of collaboration, cited documents and the length of the article. The statistical data show a well defined trend of the global warming research.
