More flexibility for Cited Reference Searching

Uncover the influence and trace the impact of any document that has ever been cited with a Cited Reference Search—one of the most powerful tools in the Web of Science.  Now with new enhancements for sorting and exporting the cited reference search table, you can easily identify the cited reference you are looking for from amongst the over 1.7+ billion cited reference links in the Web of Science.

Searching for authors is more efficient through improved author disambiguation

Improvements to the author name disambiguation algorithm used in the Web of Science Core Collection now makes it possible to be more confident that when you search for a researcher you can find all of their work, even when you are searching for an author with a common name or one who has published with several different affiliations.
