Mapping Innovation Research in Organizations: A Bibliometric Analysis

This essay conducts a bibliometric study on innovation research in organizations within the three levels (i.e., individual, work team, and organizational) by using CiteSpace software to analyze 6,354 academic articles from the year 2000 to 2020 in four aspects: temporal distribution of published papers, scientific community (countries/regions/cited authors), intellectual structure (cited journals/cited references), and research hotspots. The research findings show that the total number and the growth rate of publications at the organizational level are far higher than the other two levels (individual and work team). The top three countries with the number of publications are United States, China, and United Kingdom. The top five highly cited authors are identified and listed from individual, work team, and organizational levels. Academy of Management Journal and Academy of Management Review are the top two highly cited journals at all three levels (i.e., individual, work team, and organizational levels). The most highly cited articles at the three levels are about topics of linking empowering leadership and employee creativity, team-level predictors of innovation at work, and organizational ambidexterity. The top three research hotspots are identified and listed from individual, work team, and organizational levels. These findings provide snapshots and comparisons of innovation research in management within the three levels (i.e., individual, work team, and organizational levels), which might be beneficial for researchers and scholars to understand and explore innovative behavior in organizations from a multilevel perspective.

Digital geological map and geochronological database of the Cenozoic cover of the southern Mesa Central province, Mexico

The digital geological map of the southern sector of the Mesa Central province is presented, covering an area of ~41 000 km2 in central Mexico. This first interactive map is a compilation of the geological maps available in the literature and the unpublished maps done by our work team. The map focuses on the Cenozoic stratigraphy, supported by a geochronological database of 261 isotopic ages derived from K-Ar, U-Pb, Ar-Ar, and fission tracks methods. The interactive map displays the lithostratigraphic and chronostratigraphic units and the major and second-order Cenozoic faults. Map construction considered lithostratigraphy and geochronological correlation criteria and the main unconformities. Integrating these data in a single digital map allows a regional vision of the southern Mesa Central, making the map a valuable work tool to better understand the Cenozoic geologic evolution of central Mexico.
