. We investigated the number of references per page for different European Geosciences Union journals, which share the same text formatting.Although the journals formally all focus on geoscience, different disciplines are covered, from ocean science and biogeosciencesto the technical description of numerical model development.In this study, we show that the number of references per pageis remarkably constant across these journals.In addition, this value has remainedconstant in the last decade, despite the consistent increase inthe number of pages and in the number of references in almost all journals considered. Independently of the quality of the references used in an article, we show that for the EGU (European Geosciences Union) journals the average number ofreferences per page is 3.82 (1.87–6.18 at 90 % confidence level).This reveals that there is a consensus regarding optimum reference density,which depends on the journal's layout and not on the journal's discipline.
