Most cited articles
How is this computed?
h-index and citations are computed from the citation counts of this academic’s YÖKSİS articles matched in OpenAlex (not Google Scholar, WoS or Scopus). Unmatched articles are not included. 13 articles (248 citations) tagged with this academic’s YÖK author id in co-authors’ YÖKSİS records count only towards citations, h-index and i10; article counts, percentiles and rankings use their own YÖKSİS list.

Where does this list come from?
Extracted from the reference lists in Crossref’s public March 2026 data file; 20.3% of the file has been processed, so the list may be incomplete. Crossref citations are never added to or compared with the OpenAlex citation counts; the two sources have different coverage.
