Description:
The purpose of this paper is to recommend the adoption of a suite of bibliometric indicators to assist in the evaluation of NOAA R&D. W e select a suite of indicators based on the recommendations and best practices established in the bibliometric literature and provide a framework for implementing these metrics in evaluation procedures. A suite of metrics for the evaluation of NOAA's R&D enterprise can be organized into four overarching themes: production, collaboration, topicality, and quality. We suggest that these indicators be adopted at multiple levels of the agency to not only evaluate the entire agency's publication output, but also that of NOAA's line offices and individual R&D units. This could lead to a more systematic adoption and use of bibliometric indicators beyond NOAA, at other US government agencies. (doi:10.7289/V5WM1BBC (http://dx.doi.org/10.7289/V5WM1BBC))
