It is also interesting that, despite the different contributing databases (more and different sources in Scopus), they track so *well*. My guess from past work: the largest, reputable sources are in both - and they will heavily influence the averages. (That y-axis is average, right?)

Increase in JIF 2008 might have been related to significant coverage expansion in the database.

Some version of that is helpful most days!

Very familiar graph....very familiar story.
Sigh...
