China, Hydrology, Land use, Economic geography and Urbanization are the subjects of interest in Chinese Geographical Science. The journal facilitates discussions on China that incorporate concepts from other fields like Economic growth, Agriculture, Environmental resource management, Sustainable development and Economy. The Hydrology works featured in it incorporate elements from Structural basin and Precipitation.
The work tackled in the journal goes beyond the discipline of Precipitation as it also encompasses Climatology. Climatology study tackled is connected to the field of Climate change. Land use, land-use change and forestry is a major topic of Land use research.
Chinese Geographical Science explores research in Urbanization and the adjacent study of Urban planning.
The journal publications mainly tackle studies in Hydrology, China, Land use, Urbanization and Wetland. While Hydrology is the focus of the most cited articles, it also provides insights into the studies of Sediment and Vegetation. The China research presented in the published articles also delves into studies in intersecting subjects like
The primary areas of discussion in the journal are China, Urbanization, Physical geography, Land use and Economic geography. The journal explores issues in China which can be linked to other research areas like Regional science, Service (economics), Megacity, Socioeconomics and Big data. In addition to Urbanization research, it aims to explore topics under Climatology, Agriculture, Urban planning, Sustainable development and Urban agglomeration.
It addresses concerns in Physical geography which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Index (economics), Climate change, Nonpoint source pollution, Light intensity and Plateau. The concepts on Land use presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Agricultural productivity, Spatial heterogeneity, Remote sensing and Wetland. While Wetland is the key highlight in the journal, it also covered some subjects on Carbon storage and Soil carbon and Hydrology.
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 Chinese Geographical Science (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 Chinese Geographical Science (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, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 54.29% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 10.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 22.86% of all publications and 12.86% 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)Pursuing a degree in Environmental Sciences opens the door to various rewarding career opportunities that address critical environmental challenges. For students seeking flexibility and affordability, exploring the environmental engineering online degree options can be a smart move. These programs blend engineering principles with environmental science, preparing graduates for roles in sustainable design and pollution control.
Career prospects extend beyond engineering. Those interested in climate policy, conservation, or research can find valuable insights in high-paying jobs with environmental science degree which highlights paths in consultancy, government, and private sector roles.
Additionally, interdisciplinary skills enhance employability. For example, combining psychology with environmental sciences can provide a unique perspective on human-nature interactions. Students looking for economical pathways might explore affordable psychology masters programs online.
Finally, accelerated programs offer a chance to quickly gain credentials. While not directly linked to environmental sciences, accelerated health-related degrees, such as an accelerated slp master's program, demonstrate how focused online education can fast-track specialized careers, hinting at similar opportunities within environmental fields.
