Q-MARE database on pre-industrial climate and human impacts on marine ecosystems

A systematic literature review was carried out using two bibliographic databases the Web of Science (WoS; www.webofknowledge.com; Clarivate) and Scopus (www.scopus.com; Elsevier). In the former searches were completed by searching the “core collection” using the “topic” field (which searches the paper titles, abstracts, author keywords and keywords plus; the latter determined by a Clarivate algorithm using synonymy), and in Scopus the abstract, title and keyword fields were searched. Searches were completed between July and November 2023.
