The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Seismology, Geodesy, Geophysics, Volcano and Induced seismicity. Annals of Geophysics focuses on Seismology as well as the interrelated topic of Magnitude (mathematics). The Geodesy works featured in Annals of Geophysics incorporate elements from Ionosphere and Global Positioning System.
Most of the Geophysics studies addressed also intersect with Earth's magnetic field.
The journal papers focus largely on the fields of Seismology, Induced seismicity, Tectonics, Fault (geology) and Geodesy. The journal articles connects research in Seismology with the related topics of Magnitude (mathematics). The most cited publications explore research in Geodesy alongside concepts in Global Positioning System and other areas of study in Remote sensing and TEC.
Annals of Geophysics mainly tackles studies in Seismic risk, Seismic hazard, Seismology, Emergency management and Preparedness. Construction engineering, Object (philosophy), Situated learning and Best practice are some topics wherein Seismic risk research discussed in Annals of Geophysics have an impact. Topics in Seismic hazard explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Structure (mathematical logic), Range (statistics), Interpretation (model theory) and Probabilistic framework.
The journal aims to bridge the gap between the study of Seismology and Single zone. The studies on Emergency management discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Impact assessment, Community engagement, Vulnerability index and Environmental planning. The research on Preparedness tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Risk analysis (engineering) and GRASP.
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 Annals of Geophysics (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 Annals of Geophysics (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, 26.09% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 41.18% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 5.88% of all publications and 52.94% 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.

(2021)Exploring Earth Science opens doors to diverse career pathways that extend beyond traditional roles in geology or environmental science. Many students pursue related fields such as healthcare and psychology, where scientific understanding complements practical application. For those interested in the healthcare sector, programs like speech language pathology graduate programs provide an opportunity to specialize in communication disorders—a field that combines science with patient care.
Online education has made it easier to access such specialized training. For instance, prospective students can find valuable information on tuition costs and fees for similar healthcare degrees by reviewing online speech pathology degree tuition and fees. This helps in planning an affordable education that fits one's career goals.
Other science-related careers worth considering include forensic and clinical fields. An autopsy tech salary can be quite promising, reflecting the specialized skills required in pathology and legal investigations. Similarly, advancing your qualifications through an online masters clinical psychology program can prepare you for impactful roles in mental health, often intersecting with environmental and human factors studied in Earth Sciences.
Combining Earth Science expertise with related online degrees empowers students to adapt to evolving job markets while following diverse and rewarding career pathways.
