The topics of Paleontology, Ecology, Genus, Fauna and Cretaceous are the focal point of discussions in Alcheringa. In the Paleontology research discussed, Biostratigraphy, Ordovician, Structural basin, Devonian and Paleozoic are all tackled. Alcheringa holds forums on Ecology that merges themes from other disciplines such as Pleistocene and Botany.
It focuses on Genus research as part of the broader topic of Zoology. Fauna research discussed connects with the study of Permian. The study on Cretaceous presented is investigated in conjunction with research in Mesozoic.
The published articles primarily tackle Paleontology, Ecology, Fauna, Biostratigraphy and Genus. The published papers focus on different Paleontology studies like Ordovician, Cretaceous, Paleozoic, Structural basin and Group (stratigraphy). While Ecology is the key highlight in the published papers, thet also covered some subjects on Botany and Dicroidium.
Alcheringa is organized to address concerns in the fields of Paleontology, China, Ordovician, Zoology and Archaeology. Structural basin, Group (stratigraphy), Biostratigraphy, Peramelemorphia and Bandicoot are all subfields of Paleontology research that were featured in it. It facilitates discussions on Biostratigraphy that incorporate concepts from other fields like Ecological succession and Paleogene, Cretaceous.
China research presented in Alcheringa encompasses a variety of subjects, including Ecology and Katian. Genus studies in the realm of Zoology interact with fields like Wadeichthys. The work on Archaeology tackled in it brings together disciplines like Taxonomy (biology), Devonian, Yarravia and Fauna.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Alcheringa (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Alcheringa (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
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, 100.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, nan% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another nan% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included nan% of all publications and nan% were from other institutions.
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.
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.
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:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2020)Exploring Earth Science can open doors to various interdisciplinary fields and career paths. Students interested in broadening their expertise often consider related degrees such as an online clinical psychology masters, which offers valuable insight into human behavior and environmental psychology.
Career changers should also note lucrative opportunities outside traditional Earth Science roles. For example, professionals transitioning to speech therapy might explore the slp salary prospects, which can be financially rewarding. Access to top-tier education is essential, and many seek asha accredited programs to ensure quality and credibility in their studies.
Choosing the right institution is key for career advancement. Options commonly include non profit online colleges, which provide robust accreditation and affordable tuition rates. These flexible online degree programs support students balancing education with personal and professional commitments.
