Scopus is an abstract and citation database launched by the academic publisher Elsevier in 2004.[1]

Journals in Scopus are reviewed for sufficient quality each year according to four numerical measures: h-Index, CiteScore, SJR (SCImago Journal Rank) and SNIP (source normalized impact per paper). For this reason, the journals listed in Scopus are considered to meet the requirement for peer review quality established by several research grant agencies for their grant recipients and by degree-accreditation boards in a number of countries.[2]

Scopus also allows patent searches in a dedicated patent database, Lexis-Nexis, albeit with limited functionality.[3]
