Proportion of researchers at full-time equivalent (%) in active population by Geographic localization (NUTS - 2013); Annual - MCTES/GPEARI, R&D (institutional sector and enterprises sector)
Note(s):
(1) From January 1st, 2015 came into force a new version of NUTS (NUTS 2013). At NUTS II level was just a name change in "Lisboa" which became known as "Área Metropolitana de Lisboa".
(2) In 2021 there is a break in the series with data from the remaining reference periods for this indicator, since the 2021 series of the active population is now used for its calculation.
(3) In 2008, there is a series break, due to the process of articulation of information of R&D with the monitoring system of higher education teachers, this sector includes the R&D activities of teachers (not reported by R&D centres).
Data on human resources in R&D and expenditure on R&D in 2010 and 2011 were revised in October 2014 as a consequence of a diverse interpretation of concept of researcher comparing to originally used. This revision increased the international comparability of the data as well as the comparability with the remaining years of the national time series (initiated in 2008).
