English abstract

This study measured the international visibility of the ULE research output and the importance of the journals in which ULE researchers published their work, based on the references indexed in international databases (Scopus, WoS, Academic Search, Biosis, Biological Abstracts, PubMed, Francis and FSTA), from 1998 to 2006. The total production between 1998-2006 was 2,317 documents (2,005 articles and 108 conference papers). ULE's research in science and technology is more represented in databases than social sciences and humanities. An increasing presence of ULE research in international databases is observed. High collaboration level among authors (groups of 4 - 5), but mainly internal within ULE (69.49%). More than 75% of the articles have been referenced in JCR (WoS) or SJR (Scopus). The coverage of journals in which ULE researchers published is higher in Scopus, but WoS indexed more papers.
