Article-level metrics are now live at AoB PLANTS

AoB PLANTS is pleased to announce that our website now provides valuable information about how each article published in our journal is being used by the scientific community. Article-level metrics reveal how many times a particular article has been downloaded and (via Altmetric) how much attention the article has received online via social media, blogs, and reference managers such as CiteULike and Mendeley. These metrics benefit authors as well as the wider academic community by providing a better understanding of the impact of the article, with real-time data showing how users are interacting and engaging with published research. To see this feature in action, select any AoB PLANTS online abstract and then click ‘Article metrics’ under the ‘Services’ menu on the right.
