Dimensions is a next generation linked research information system from Digital Science. This link takes you to the freely available version where you can search for research publications, citations, altmetric data and datasets derived from Figshare, Dryad, Zenodo, Pangaea etc. Depending on the needs of your literature review Dimensions may be a useful search source alongside other bibliographic databases provided by UEA Library.
Please note-UEA Library does not subscribe to Dimensions Plus, the full version of this database, (that contains data about grants, patents, clinical trials and policy documents).
SciVal is a web-based analytics system specifically developed for research data. It offers comprehensive access to the research performance data of over 20,000 research institutions, and their associated researchers, from over 230 countries worldwide. The system offers 4 integrated modules (overview, benchmarking, collaboration, and trends) which allow you to easily visualise and analyse all aspects of your research performance compared to your peers.
