Web of Science automatically creates a ResesarcherID that compiles the researchers' publications to avoid author misidentification on Web of Science. It also provides metrics such as the number of citing articles, h-index and citation counts. 

1. Go to Web of Science and search for any author by Last Name and First Name under Researcher Search:

2. Select the relevant author record by looking at the affiliations, list of recent publications and top journals:

3. At the profile page, you can find the Web of Science ResearcherID with other information, such as peer reviews, grant reviews, editorial board memberships, publication metrics (h-index, citing articles count, sum of times cited, peer review count), publication and peer review charts.

Google Scholar provides fundamental citation metrics for a wide range of scholarly resources, including books, book chapters, journal articles, conference proceedings, and even web-accessible dissertations. Through Google Scholar, you will be able to sign up for a Google Scholar Profile that will contain the information about your scholarly materials indexed in Google Scholar.

Here are the instructions to create your own Google Scholar profile:

1. Go to https://scholar.google.com/ and click on My Profile at the top left corner of the window.
2. You need to fill up some basic information about yourself, such as your name, affiliation, work email, research areas and personal websites. These information will become available on your Google Scholar Profile.
3. You will be prompted to search for articles that you have written to add them to your profile.
4. You can also make your profile public or private - a public profile is recommended so other researchers can find you.
