Between 1997 and 2001, ISI indexed 36,869 papers that listed at least one author address in Denmark. Of those papers, the highest percentage appeared in journals classified under the heading of ecology/environmental sciences. In that field, as can be seen in the right-hand column, the citations-per-paper average for papers from Denmark exceeded the world average by 32% (3.96 cites per paper for Denmark, versus a world baseline of 3.00 citations per paper). The impact of papers from Denmark exceeded the world average in most of the fields shown above (the table includes only those fields in which authors in Denmark contributed at least 100 papers to the ISI database during the five-year period), with the nation showing particular citation strength in agricultural sciences, space science, physics, chemistry, and engineering.
