Abstract:
Astrobiology publication signatures as interdisciplinary archaeology.
Astrobiology is inherently interdisciplinary, but actionable methods to encourage and measure interdisciplinary science are scarce.

The initial goal was to analyze research literature to develop a “signature” of astrobiology-related work, to map the migration of astrobiology-related terms
