1.3 Co-Publications on a Country Basis between the Countries Studied<br />
Figures 18 to 34 deal with the co-publication output between the countries studied. Similar to<br />
the total publication output, the tendency towards international cooperation also experiences a<br />
general increase. Figure 18 illustrates the number of co-publications between the countries<br />
studied for the entire period 1998 – 2007. Countries with a high volume of publications in<br />
absolute terms also tend to have a high absolute number of co-publications.<br />

Figure 18: Number of co-publications per country for the period 1998-2007<br />
In Figures 19 and 20, the data shown in Figure 18 for the entire period under review are split<br />
into two equally long periods of five years each in order to make the development over time<br />
clearer. For example, this allows us to determine an above-average increase in the number of<br />
co-publications between Singapore and China and between Australia and Japan.<br />
