The topics of Mineralogy, Environmental chemistry, Geochemistry, Hydrology and Groundwater are the focal point of discussions in Applied Geochemistry. Some problems in Mineralogy that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Carbonate and Dissolution. The work tackled in it goes beyond the discipline of Dissolution as it also encompasses Inorganic chemistry.
While it focused on Inorganic chemistry, it was also able to explore topics like Aqueous solution and Sorption. Topics in Environmental chemistry explored in Applied Geochemistry were investigated in conjunction with research in Organic matter, Soil water, Sediment, Pollution and Arsenic. Soil water research is the primary subject tackled in the journal with a focus on Soil test.
Most of the works presented in it deals with Geochemistry but it intersects with the subject of Meteoric water. Drainage basin, Surface water and Water quality are among the concentrations of Hydrology that garnered much attention in Applied Geochemistry. It features Groundwater research that overlaps with concepts in Hydrogeology.
The journal publications facilitate discussions on Mineralogy, Environmental chemistry, Geochemistry, Groundwater and Hydrology. The studies on Mineralogy discussed at the journal articles can also contribute to research in the domains of Sulfate, Carbonate and Dissolution. The most cited papers address concerns in the field of Environmental chemistry by exploring it in line with topics in Soil water which intersect with Contamination subjects.
The main research concerns discussed in Applied Geochemistry are Environmental chemistry, Geochemistry, Groundwater, Dissolution and Aquifer. The Environmental chemistry research presented in Applied Geochemistry explores the relationship between Organic matter and the closely related topic of Total organic carbon. Geochemistry research in Applied Geochemistry involves the investigation of Sediment studies, all of which are linked to disciplines such as Drainage basin.
The featured Groundwater research is covered under the field of Hydrology. Dissolution research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Inorganic chemistry, Sulfide, Adsorption and Calcite. The journal focuses on Aquifer but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Hydrogeology and Water well.
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 Applied Geochemistry (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 Applied Geochemistry (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, 9.62% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 24.47% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.04% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 9.57% of all publications and 56.91% 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)For those interested in Earth Science, pursuing online degrees offers flexible options to advance your education and career. Many reputable programs accept students regardless of past academic performance, so exploring an online college with no gpa requirements can be a great starting point.
A popular specialization within Earth Science is a geographic information systems degree, which equips students with skills in spatial data analysis and mapping—critical for careers in environmental consulting and urban planning.
If your focus is more on the Earth’s physical properties, consider a geoscience online degree. This path helps you gain knowledge in geology, mineralogy, and Earth processes, opening doors to work in natural resource management or geological research.
For a quicker route to advanced qualifications, some students choose a fast track aba masters online, which, while not directly related to geoscience, offers a model for completing specialized degrees at an accelerated pace—helpful insight when planning your educational timeline.
