Between 1999 and 2003, Thomson Scientific indexed 38,823 papers that listed at least one author address in Denmark. Of those papers, Denmark's highest percentage appeared in journals classified under the heading of microbiology, with ecology/environmental sciences. In microbiology, as can be seen in the right-hand column, the citations-per-paper average for papers from Denmark exceeded the world average by 9% (7.13 cites per paper for Denmark, versus a world baseline of 6.55 citations per paper). The impact of papers from Denmark surpassed the world average in all but three of the fields shown above, with particularly noteworthy
relative-impact scores recorded in agricultural sciences (57% above the world
mark), physics (+62%), chemistry (+53%), and engineering (+55%).
