Track online conversations around publications
With the addition of an Altmetric emblem, academics are now able to see article level metrics on social media activity. We are hoping to enhance this technology in the future to include richer data sets.
Using Altmetric
The image below shows how the Altmetric emblem is displayed within Elements. Academics are able to see an Altmetric score above each publication, which links to a more detailed page on the Altmetric website. These pages will highlight some of the conversations occurring across social networks.
