    • Scopus Author Identifier

    The Scopus author identifier distinguishes you from other authors by assigning you a unique number and then grouping all your documents together. However, if your name has appeared in various ways during your authoring career or you’ve changed affiliations at any point, your publications may be spread over a number of different author profiles. Clarify your identity by checking that the list of publications associated with your Scopus author identifier is correct, and use the ORCID integration to link your Scopus information with an ORCID ID.

    How do I get started with Scopus Author ID?
