As many of you know, PoP is an interface to Google Scholar that radically simplifies the gathering of citation data from the Web. For author analysis it provides: * Total number of papers * Total number of citations * Average number of citations per paper * Average number of citations per author * Average number of papers per author * Average number of citations per year * Hirsch's h-index and related parameters * Egghe's g-index * The contemporary h-index * The age-weighted citation rate * Two variations of individual h-indices * An analysis of the number of authors per paper. It also has modules for analyzing contributors to a journal and contributors to a subject literature as defined by the user. Several papers discussing its features are downloadable as well.
