Abstract

It is shown that interdisciplinarity in soil science as a scientific area has been growing ever more rapidly in recent years, while the dissemination of related information over different scientific journals has become excessive and still continues to increase. In particular, the number of Russian journals publishing papers on soil science and represented in the eLIBRARY.ru database increased by more than six times in 14 years (2005–2018) and, by the moment of our study, comprised over 600 names of journals and other Russian-language publications. Since 1997, the segment of papers on soil research has finally shifted from the category of soil science to environmental sciences. The Russian array of publications of 1975–2018 on soil research is analyzed in terms of its positioning in the world. Currently, the number of papers on soil science is actively increasing both in Russia and worldwide. The highest growth rate in the Russian document flow in this scientific area was observed in 2016–2018. In the number of publications, Russian soil science is in a good position in the world. Citation analysis demonstrates an increase in the citation rate in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoS CC) and Scopus databases. Contrary to the widespread opinion on the preferential citation of papers, monographs are prevalently cited in the area of soil science in the eLIBRARY.ru.

土壤科学作为科学领域的文献计量分析

摘要

结果表明，近年来，土壤科学作为一个科学领域的交叉学科正在以越来越快的速度发展，与此同时，相关信息在不同科学期刊上的传播也变得过分且仍在继续。特别是，在eLIBRARY.ru数据库中发表的，有关土壤科学的俄罗斯期刊的数量在14年（2005-2018年）中增长了六倍以上，而在我们进行研究时，该期刊已包含600多种期刊和其他俄语出版物。自1997年以来，有关土壤研究的论文领域终于从土壤科学转向环境科学。俄国在1975-2018年间有关土壤研究的出版物在世界范围内的地位得到了分析。目前，在俄罗斯乃至全世界，有关土壤科学的论文数量都在积极增加。在2016-2018年期间，该科学领域的俄罗斯文档流增长率最高。在出版物数量上，俄罗斯土壤科学在世界上处于有利地位。引用分析表明，Web of Science核心收藏（WoS CC）和Scopus数据库的引用率有所提高。与对论文优先引用的普遍观点相反，在eLIBRARY.ru中土壤科学领域普遍引用了专着。引用分析表明，Web of Science核心收藏（WoS CC）和Scopus数据库的引用率有所提高。与对论文优先引用的普遍看法相反，在eLIBRARY.ru中土壤科学领域普遍引用了专着。引用分析表明，Web of Science核心收藏（WoS CC）和Scopus数据库的引用率有所提高。与对论文优先引用的普遍观点相反，在eLIBRARY.ru中土壤科学领域普遍引用了专着。
