Just read this @thePeerJ article showing that the @altmetric Attention Score is positively correlated to citation rates in Ecology and Conservation https://t.co/JM2DQVgRS4 Another good reason to share our research findings in twitter and other social media

An interesting PeerJ article on Tweeting, alternative metrics and how Scientific communication correlates with increased citations in Ecology and Conservation https://t.co/gE0Retct8o https://t.co/AgKLrCl3Bc
#sciencetwitter and #scicomm tweeters rejoice: More tweets about a paper (unsurprisingly) correlates with increased citations, at least in ecology and conservation #365papers

This is interesting - study suggests that good research promoted through social media gets more citations BUT media coverage has less effect than it used to https://t.co/JpS22ce9A7 via @CaulfieldTim https://t.co/zueJQNB7pT
