Research trend share of papers by all institutions in Africa, per year

Each point is this institution's share of the papers credited to all institutions in Africa that year, with credit split across co-authoring institutions. A share, not a count, because our collection grows unevenly by year. Hover a point for the figures. The hollow point is the year in progress.

Check communities to show the trend above for them only. Positions are by fractional papers across all years. A community page ranks its institutions by citation-weighted credit, so its order can differ.
