A researcher identifier is a unique identifier used by authors, publishers, universities, and corporations to match authors to their research outputs.
Researcher identifiers can assist with name ambiguity problems caused by:
ORCID stands for Open Researcher and Contributor ID. It is a unique, permanent identifier that is portable and will travel with a researcher throughout their career, across organisations, institutions, and countries.
The aim of ORCID is to automate linkages to research outputs such as publications, grants, datasets, patents, and other identifiers, linking these all to the researcher.
An ORCID can be used in the following situations:
|
As a UON researcher or HDR student you can register for an ORCID via your NURO Profile.
Note: Setting your profile as public increases your discoverability and allows you to link ORCID to other platforms. Some publisher and grant applications require you to have a public profile.
You can link your ORCID to other research identifiers such as Web of Science ResearcherID or Scopus Author ID to ensure all platforms stay up to date.
Scopus Author Identifier Scopus creates an author identifier for each author with documents indexed in Scopus and distinguishes your research from other authors with similar names, grouping all your documents together. |
ResearcherID (Web of Sceince and Publons) A Web of Science ResearcherID is a unique identifier that connects an author with their works in the Web of Science. |
