The main research concerns discussed in Australian Archaeology are Archaeology, Project commissioning, Publishing, Media studies and Prehistory. Topics like Excavation, Holocene, Radiocarbon dating, Pleistocene and Cave are tackled as part of the discussions on Archaeology. Topics in Project commissioning explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Social science and Library science.
It explores research in Publishing and the adjacent study of Anthropology. Most of the works presented in Australian Archaeology deals with Media studies but it intersects with the subject of Art history.
The most cited publications generally zeroe in on subjects such as Archaeology, Project commissioning, Social science, Radiocarbon dating and Pleistocene. The journal articles feature Archaeology research that overlaps with concepts in Range (biology). Research in Project commissioning discussed in the journal publications is concerned with the study of Publishing as a whole.
The foci of the journal are Archaeology, Excavation, Holocene, Historical archaeology and Art history. The Archaeology study featured in the journal draws parallels with the field of Publishing. The presented Excavation research focuses mostly on Range (biology) and, on occasion, topics in Cave and Foothills.
Australian Archaeology holds forums on Holocene that merges themes from other disciplines such as Arid, Sand dune stabilization, Foraging and Paleoethnobotany. Issues in Historical archaeology were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Quartz, Block (telecommunications), Experimental archaeology and Prospecting. The studies on Art history discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Commonwealth, City block, Maritime archaeology, Object (philosophy) and Underwater archaeology.
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 Australian Archaeology (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 Australian Archaeology (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, 5.56% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 79.41% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 8.82% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 2.94% of all publications and 8.82% 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)Pursuing a degree in Earth Science opens doors to diverse career pathways, many of which can be explored through online education. For those interested in spatial data and mapping technologies, exploring colleges with GIS programs is a great start. These programs provide expertise in Geographic Information Systems, essential for environmental analysis and urban planning careers.
If your focus is geology, there are flexible options available with a geology degree online. These degrees equip students with fieldwork knowledge and lab skills critical to roles like geological surveying and resource management.
While not Earth Science specific, the quickest online ABA masters program highlights opportunities for professionals to quickly advance in specialized behavioral fields, showcasing the availability of accelerated online master's options in various disciplines.
Graduate studies in health-related fields such as speech-language pathology require careful preparation. Reviewing SLP graduate programs can guide students interested in interdisciplinary applications of Earth Science, especially those combining environmental and human health sectors.
