The Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) receives its major funding from governments, international development organizations, private foundations and regional organizations. This study analyzed journal citations of CIFOR publications, using the International Statistical Institute (ISI) web of Science database. CIFOR research and publications have an impact on the scientific community? One way to answer this question is by counting citations of CIFOR publications in academic journals. Citation counting is commonly used 'to assess the academic performance of individual researchers, departments and research institutions when making decisions about funding, hiring, promotion and tenure In the present study we used the citation database of the ISI web of Science. This includes all the major journals, and is the most complete database for this purpose. It includes citations of all types of publication, but only those appearing in journal articles. Thus, a journal article citing a CIFOR Occasional Paper (OP) is registered, while the citation of a journal article in a CIFOR OP is not. An important constraint on this exercise was the fact that accumulating citations takes time. Thus, nine of the top ten publications are from 1998 or earlier. In other words, it is too early to assess the scientific impact of publications from the last 4-5 years. The statistical work was carried out in June-July 2004. The number of citations increases weekly and this report shows the status as at mid- June 2004.
