[ES] Este trabajo utiliza las bases de datos de SCOPUS e ISI WEB OF KNOWLEDGE para valorar algunos aspectos de la producción científica y del impacto de los geógrafos españoles. La base de datos de SCOPUS se ha empleado para separar a los 52 geógrafos con un Índice H igual o superior a 5, mientras que la base de datos del ISI ha servido para profundizar en aspectos más concretos de esos 52 geógrafos. Entre los resultados obtenidos destaca la mayor presencia de geógrafos físicos. Algunos autores superan los 70 artículos en revistas internacionales y más de 1000 citas. Es importante señalar también que unos pocos geógrafos superan el Índice H de 20,lo que significa estar a la altura de los geógrafos con mayor impacto en el mundo. "Catena" y "Geomorphology" son las revistas que, en mayor medida, acogen artículos de geógrafos españoles. Se discute la validez e interés de este tipo de análisis cuantitativo de la producción científica.
[EN] This paper uses the SCOPUS and ISI WEB OF KNOWLEDGE databases to evaluate some aspects of the scientific production and impact of the Spanish geographers. SCOPUS has been used to identify the group of the geographers with an H Index ≥5 , whereas the ISI database served to deep into more detailed aspects. Among the obtained results, the higher precence of physical geographers must be underlined. Some authors have published more tan 70 papers in international journals and account for more tan 1000 cites. It is also noteworthy that a few geographers have an H index ≥20, that is, at the leve1 of the geographers with the bighest impact in the world. "Catena" and "Geomorphology" are the journals that, to a greater extent, publish papers from the Spanish geographers. The validity and interest of this type of quantitative analysis of the scientific production is discussed.
