P.S. Of course, depending on the size of the group and the length of their publication lists' it would be possible to work this out manually by removing all post-2011 citations from each publication's citation list?

This is because even if you could easily remove the 2012-2016 publications, you wouldn't know how many citations each publication had in 2011. At Loughborough we regularly extract citation data at various census points so we can retrospectively chart citation progress. This is no use to you now, but if you start extracting now you can do this in future!

We are able to do it for now by making a group of authors in Scopus and calculating. But even if we limit the publication dates to those before 2011, it seems that it is still calculating using all of the citations through 2016. Does anyone know a way to get around this?
