In-cites has produced a listing of most-improved scientists,
institutions, countries, and journals from the latest bimonthly
update to the ISI
Essential Science Indicators
Web product. These "most-improved" entities are those that
show the largest percentage increase in total citations from the
sixth bimonthly period of 2004 to the first bimonthly period of 2005—that
is, from December 2004 to February 2005—across ISI Essential
Science Indicators’ 22 fields.
