Scopus
Scopus and Web of science are large databases covering
science and other subjects and allowing cited reference searching (finding
articles that have cited a given article). The 1980 onwards date range
of Web of science makes it the more useful database for cited reference
searching.
Scopus and Web of science can also be searched by topic
but they lack the depth of coverage of a biological database such as Biosis
previews.
