Bibliometric aspect of the detection of perspective areas in research organization: case study of earth sciences
Detection of perspective research areas in academic studies is of key importance for successful development and enhancement of the competitive performance of research organizations, universities, and the country. This task is usually solved by the expert community; however, the use of results of bibliometric analysis can give significant support to experts for informed decisions. The paper uses a case study of Earth Sciences to present a bibliometric model for the detection of perspective research in individual research organizations. The model is based on multiplex analysis of publications from the analyzed organization using content analysis and citation analysis.
