Scopus Author ID is a unique identifier assigned by Scopus, the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature. The Scopus Author ID is a numerical value that distinguishes one author from another and allows researchers to keep track of their publications and citations.
To obtain a Scopus Author ID, you need to create a Scopus account and add your publications to your profile. Scopus will then automatically create a unique identifier for you based on your name and publication record.
Having a Scopus Author ID can be beneficial for researchers as it enables them to track their publications' citations, h-index, and other bibliometric indicators, as well as collaborate with other researchers in their field. It also helps to establish your academic identity and increases your visibility in the research community.
