The journal investigates studies in Laser, Optics, Photonics, Atmospheric sciences and Atmosphere. It explores issues in Laser which can be linked to other research areas like Spectral line, Wavelength, Radiation and Atomic physics. The journal focused on Spectral line research but expanded to cover Absorption spectroscopy.
Optics, which encompasses Beam (structure), Filamentation, Scattering, Pulse (physics) and Refractive index, is the main subject of the journal. The journal facilitates discussions on Photonics that incorporate concepts from other fields like Turbulence, Computational physics, Wavefront and Remote sensing. Remote sensing research is concerned with Lidar in particular.
The journal explores research in Lidar and the adjacent study of Depth sounding. While Atmospheric sciences is the focus of Atmospheric and Oceanic Optics, it also provided insights into the studies of Meteorology, Ozone and Aerosol.
The most cited papers mainly deal with areas of study such as Optics, Photonics, Laser, Aerosol and Atmospheric sciences. While Optics is the focus of the journal publications, it also provides insights into the studies of Spectral line and Computational physics. The works on Laser tackled in the published papers bring together disciplines like Spectrometer, Turbulent atmosphere, Turbulence, Fourier transform and Radiation.
Atmospheric and Oceanic Optics tackles a plethora of topics, such as Atmosphere, Atmospheric sciences, Laser, Photonics and Optics. Topics in Atmosphere were tackled in line with various other fields like Computational physics, Excited state, Satellite, Lidar and Troposphere. It facilitates discussions on Atmospheric sciences that incorporate concepts from other fields like Air layer, Air mass, Aerosol, Pollutant emissions and Air pollution.
Laser research featured in Atmospheric and Oceanic Optics incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Image quality, Combustion, Contrast (vision), Pulse (physics) and Excitation. The Photonics works featured in it incorporate elements from Range (particle radiation), Spectroscopy, Wavefront and Observer (quantum physics). Issues in Radiation were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Intensity (physics) and AERONET.
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 Atmospheric and Oceanic Optics (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 Atmospheric and Oceanic Optics (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, 4.17% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 93.48% 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 2.17% of all publications and 4.35% 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 expanding their expertise beyond environmental sciences, several related online degree options are worth considering. Many students seek affordable psychology masters programs to complement their understanding of human behavior and environmental impact, enhancing their ability to develop community-focused sustainability solutions.
Graduates with an environmental science background often explore diverse career opportunities. To learn more about the wide range of positions available, you can explore detailed insights on what jobs can you get with an environmental science degree, from conservation roles to environmental consultancy and policy making.
For those interested specifically in the technical side, pursuing an online environmental engineering degree can provide essential skills for designing sustainable infrastructure and mitigating environmental hazards.
In addition, accelerated degrees like the accelerated slp master's program offer a fast-track option to specialize in speech pathology, which intersects with environmental health through research on the effects of pollution and environmental factors on communication disorders.
