Scopus is the world's largest abstract and citation database of peer reviewed literature with tools to help track and analyze research.
Scopus automatically assigns an ID to every author that has an article or other publication indexed in Scopus.
The ID helps to disambiguate you from other authors with similar names or connect all your works published under variations of your name and different institutional affiliations.
The ID is used to create a Scopus Author Profile that includes author name, affiliation(s), subject areas, publications, citations, and co-authors. The profiles do not cover editorship, managerial or executive roles, or teaching positions. (from Scopus Author Profile FAQs). The profiles are automatically created using metadata within Scopus, therefore they cannot be changed by Scopus users, unless a user requests corrections using the Author Feedback Wizard.
Complete Scopus profiles are visible only to Scopus subscribers. A limited version of the author profile is available to non Scopus subscribers.
