Between 1999 and 2003, Thomson Scientific indexed 36,214 papers that listed at least one author address in Austria. Of those, the highest percentage of papers appeared in journals classified under the heading of immunology, followed closely by clinical medicine. As the right-hand column shows, the citations-per-paper score for immunology papers from Austria was just 8% below the world average in (9.37 citations per paper for Austria, versus the world baseline of 10.17 citations). Austria's performance was notably strong in molecular biology (39% above the world mark), physics (+36%), and engineering (+12%). In geosciences, Austrian impact happened to match the world score precisely: 3.41 cites per paper.
