Overview

Top Research Topics at Advances in Meteorology?

The objective of Advances in Meteorology is to combine knowledge in the areas of Climatology, Precipitation, Meteorology, Atmospheric sciences and Climate change. It focuses on Climatology but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Climate model and China. In Advances in Meteorology, Structural basin, Drainage basin, Evapotranspiration, Hydrology and Physical geography are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Precipitation research.

More specifically, the research on Hydrology in the journal is related to Surface runoff. The work on Meteorology addressed in the journal expands to the thematically related Remote sensing. Atmospheric sciences research featured in Advances in Meteorology incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Atmosphere and Aerosol.

Advances in Meteorology explores issues in Climate change which can be linked to other research areas like Land use and Water resources.

  • Climatology (42.99%)
  • Precipitation (27.19%)
  • Meteorology (22.42%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

  • Temperature and Precipitation Development at Svalbard 1900-2100 (221 citations)
  • Precipitation Trends over Time Using Mann-Kendall and Spearman’s rho Tests in Swat River Basin, Pakistan (172 citations)
  • Modification of Human-Biometeorologically Significant Radiant Flux Densities by Shading as Local Method to Mitigate Heat Stress in Summer within Urban Street Canyons (117 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Advances in Meteorology:

The main points discussed in the published articles deal with Climatology, Precipitation, Meteorology, Atmospheric sciences and Climate change. In addition to Climatology research, the published articles aim to explore topics under Climate model and China. The journal papers address concerns in Meteorology which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Air pollution and Remote sensing.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Statistics
  • Meteorology
  • Climate change

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal primarily focuses on research topics in Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Meteorology, Precipitation and Tropical cyclone. The subject of Vorticity, which is connected to the field of Troposphere, serves as the foundation of the Climatology research featured in it. Atmospheric sciences research presented in Advances in Meteorology encompasses a variety of subjects, including Wet season, Climatic variables, Intensity (heat transfer), Pollution and Relative humidity.

The research on Meteorology tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Mean squared error and Southern china. The research on Precipitation featured in it combines topics in other fields like Arid, Physical geography, Evapotranspiration and Forcing (mathematics). Advances in Meteorology explores research in Tropical cyclone alongside concepts in Convection and other areas of study in Submarine pipeline, Prevailing winds and Outflow.

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2021 edition, 12.20% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 41.67% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 2.78% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 5.56% of all publications and 50.00% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
