One of the main outputs of R&D, especially that performed in the higher education sector, is scientific publications. Such publications are also often an intermediate output of innovation. In 1997, the publication of Australian scientific and technical articles per capita was well above the OECD average and that of countries including the United States of America, Germany and Japan, and on a par with Canada and the United Kingdom (graph 25.15).
