Overview

Top Research Topics at Doklady Earth Sciences?

The journal aims to foster the development of research in Geochemistry, Paleontology, Oceanography, Petrology and Mineralogy. While work presented in Doklady Earth Sciences provided substantial information on Geochemistry, it also covered topics in Mineralization (geology) and Magmatism. Paleontology research is concerned with Tectonics in particular.

  • Geochemistry (40.71%)
  • Paleontology (12.88%)
  • Oceanography (8.08%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

  • Early stages of the Paleoasian Ocean formation: Results of geochronological, isotopic, and geochemical investigations of Late Riphean and Vendian-Cambrian complexes in the Central Asian Foldbelt (91 citations)
  • U-Pb age of Syn- and postmetamorphic granitoids of south Mongolia : Evidence for the presence of grenvillides in the central Asian foldbelt (90 citations)
  • Impact of wildfire in Russia between 1998-2010 on ecosystems and the global carbon budget (69 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Doklady Earth Sciences:

The most cited articles investigate studies in Geochemistry, Paleontology, Petrology, Oceanography and Climatology. The most cited publications connects the study in Geochemistry with the closely related areas of Magmatism. In addition to Climatology research, the published papers aim to explore topics under Atmosphere and Atmospheric sciences.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Ecology
  • Oxygen
  • Organic chemistry

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal generally zeroes in on subjects such as Geochemistry, Seismology, Zircon, Atmosphere and Massif. Geochemistry research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Rift and Magmatism. Doklady Earth Sciences is focused mainly on Seismology, particularly Seismogram.

The studies tackled, which mainly focus on Zircon, apply to Island arc as well. While the journal focused on Atmosphere, it was also able to explore topics like Observatory, Atmospheric sciences and Geophysics. The studies on Kimberlite discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Xenolith, Diamond, Craton and Mineral.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Sulfide-Bearing Polymineralic Inclusions in Mantle-Derived Garnets from Lamprophyres of the Chompolo Field (Central Aldan, Siberian Craton) (2 citations)
  • LA–ICP–MS Isotopic U–Pb Age of Zircon from the Eldzhurty Granites and Rhyolites at the Tyrnyauz Mo–W Deposit (North Caucasus, Russia) (1 citations)
  • First Data on the U–Pb Isotopic Age for Zircon (LA-ICP-MS Method) from Leucocratic Granites of the Tyrnyauz Mo–W Deposit (North Caucasus, Russia) (1 citations)

Papers citation over time

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.

Publication chance based on affiliation

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, 12.50% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 97.74% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.75% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.75% of all publications and 0.75% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

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.

Returning Institution Index

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.

The experience to innovation index

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:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
