Language eng - English Country CZ - Czech Republic Keywords citation analysis ; biological invasions ; Web of Science Subject RIV EF - Botanics CEZ AV0Z60050516 - BU-J (2005-2011) Annotation The citation frequency of papers on invasion ecology published between 1981 and 2003 and that had accumulated at least 30 citations on the Web of Science 2006 was analysed. The dataset comprised 329 papers and 27,240 citations. Papers were classified into broad research fields: plant invasions, animal invasions, biological control, and general papers (reviews and syntheses). Eight papers were cited more than 300 times, five of them dealt with general topics, and the mean value of the total number of citations across the whole data set is 82.8+/-73.1. The mean annual citation rate is 11.5+/-11.3 citations per year; six studies received on average at least 50 citations each year. General papers are significantly more cited than papers from the other categories. To compare the trends in invasion ecology with those in other fields of ecology, comparable data were compiled for population ecology and dynamics, and global change. The annual citation rate for invasion ecology as a whole increased faster than that for population ecology and dynamics, but not exponentially as is the case with studies on global change. Measured by the annual citation rate, the hottest current topics in invasion ecology are the effect of global change on invasions, the role of natural enemies, character of the invasion process, evolutionary aspects, invasibility of communities and ecosystem processes.
