Figure 3. A) Journal articles per year, n=1,454 B) Review articles per year, n=144
The number of publications has been growing since 1989, and since 2007 the RRI has
maintained a production of more than 100 articles each year, except for 2008 in which there are
91articles present in the Scopus database. The number of reviews published by scientists at the
RRI has been also increasing. However the growth trend for this type of publication shows more
variability than article's publication trend.
