List of countries by number of scientific and technical journal articles

Those are lists of countries and territories by number of scientific publications in English.

Scopus
Scientific citable documents counts in this table are from journals classified by Scopus.

Nature Index
The countries with the highest share of articles published in scientific journals according to the Nature Index 2024, which is valid for the calendar year 2023.

The "count" is the total number of articles to which nationals of the country have contributed. The "share" is lower than the count because for each article it is based on the number of nationals who have contributed, divided by the total number of contributors. In many cases the "share" will be much lower than the "count" because the "count" includes articles published by institutions which may have only a very few members of the relevant nationality out of a very large total membership.
