Researcher identifiers:
Researcher identifiers are essential for connecting you and your research outputs within the scholarly research community. If you do not have an identifier you may not be getting credit for your work.
We recommend each of the research identifiers on this page. These identifiers vary in how they are created, managed and used. Work through the information on this page and the downloadable pdf files to make sure that you are gaining maximum benefit from each identifier.
Cross-referencing the profiles that you use for your research also helps others to track and engage with your research. We encourage you to list your research identifiers and social media profiles on your Southern Cross Researcher Profile, your ORCID profile, and other profiles if the option is available.
Contact your Librarian for assistance with creating and managing your research identifiers.
Publons helps you track your research outputs, achievements and activities.
Use your Publons identifier and profile to:

Scopus automatically assigns a unique identifier when you have published in a journal, book or conference proceedings that is indexed in the Scopus database. Your subsequent publications will be assigned to the same identifier. Search for yourself in Scopus to see if you have a Scopus author identifier.
Integrate your Scopus Author ID with ORCID to resolve any name ambiguity within publications and assign correct citation counts to your research outputs.
You are not able to edit your profile in Scopus. To request changes,select from the options in the Scopus Support Centre.
A Google Scholar profile increases your online discoverability and visibility, and provides easy access to tracking citations of your research outputs that are listed in Google Scholar.
The advantage of a Google Scholar profile is that it may capture publications and citations that are not available in Web of Science or Scopus. This can be particularly useful if you are the author of publications like Government or other non-academic reports, or if your publications have been cited by non-academic works.
Make sure your list of publications is up-to-date in your other profiles. This is the best way to list and track your publications and citations in your Google Scholar profile.
