Each strip is that field’s whole ranked pool, with the notch where Scottish Universities Press sits in it, in the colour of the band that rank falls in. The track under the rate is the rate itself: it carries no world mark, because the world rate differs by field (from about 6% to 21% in this record).

What does Scottish Universities Press specialise in?

Where its research is concentrated relative to its size: Geophysics takes 31.5× the share of its output that it takes of world research.

Field profile

Location quotient across every field it publishes in: outside the ring is more than an institution of this size would be expected to publish, inside it is less.

Which keywords describe research at Scottish Universities Press?

By fractional works in all years, weighted toward what it does more of than the world: Health Effects, Radionuclides, Tectonics, Plate Tectonics, Geochronology, Zircon, Environmental Impacts and Climate Change.
