indexResultsThis page displays the results of your search in an abbreviated record format. The left-hand column of the page contains the search statement that retrieved the results along with the number of results that the search retrieved. Click the More link to view the selected time span and any selected data restrictions such as document types and languages. All bibliographic records that appear on the Results page are source records. Source records are from items (journals, books, conferences, and patents) that we have indexed in a product. Every source record has a Full Record that you can access. Moreover, you can add every source record to your Marked List. indexManaging LinksFor information about managing links, go to Managing Links. indexOpen access status is provided across the Web of Science platform as a result of a partnership with Impactstory, a not-for-profit organization that recently launched a knowledgebase of Open Access (OA) content. This knowledgebase makes it possible to discover and link to legal Gold or Bronze (free content at a publisher's website) and Green (e.g., author self-archived in a repository) OA versions. This partnership improves discoverability and access to article-level OA versions not only by adding more links to OA content, but also by prioritizing the links to the best version of OA content when multiple versions of an article are available. Always consult the copyright owner for any re-use or licensing requests. You can learn more about OA on Web of Science at http://info.clarivate.com/openaccess. The OA status of a document can be one of the following:
On a results summary page, there is only a link to the best available free copy. If there is more than one free version available, links to other versions only appear in the Full Text Options menu on the record page for that article. When available, the final version of record at the publisher website is always preferred, followed by the final published version at a repository, and then by the accepted version at a repository. Links are always labeled with the version and whether they point to a publisher or repository. The following OA values are available as part of the export of the full record
