The Emerging Sources Citation Index is a citation index produced since 2015 by Thomson Reuters, and now by Clarivate Analytics. It is accessible through the Web of Science. The index includes academic journals "of regional importance and in emerging scientific fields". Jeffrey Beall has stated that, among the databases produced by Thomson Reuters, the Emerging Sources Citation Index is the easiest one to get into and as a result it contains many predatory journals.
