Figure 8

Screenshot of SciX results about volcanoes that are useful. Using an unfielded search for volcanoes as input, Useful() returned over 4,000 results when this example was run, as you can see in the upper left; because SciX adds new material on daily and weekly cycles you may see a different count.


Figure 9

Screenshot of SciX results that are reviews of literature about volcanoes. Using an unfielded search for volcanoes as input, Reviews() returned over 127,000 results when this example was run as you can see in the upper left; because SciX adds new material on daily and weekly cycles you may see a different count.
