Earth and Environmental Science Transactions of The Royal Society of Edinburgh investigates studies in Paleontology, Geochemistry, Genus, Zoology and Anatomy. The study on Paleontology presented in the journal intersects with subjects under the field of Fauna. Magma and Igneous rock are all topics related to Geochemistry research discussed.
Some problems in Magma that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Petrology and Pluton. The Genus study tackling the subject of Type species is the focus of the journal. The journal is focused mainly on Zoology, particularly Taxonomy (biology).
The work on Anatomy presented in it focuses on Skull in particular. The study on Ordovician featured in the journal expounds on the topic of Trilobite in particular.
The foci of the most cited publications are Paleontology, Geochemistry, Petrology, Ecology and Anatomy. The most cited publications connects the study in Paleontology with the closely related areas of Fauna. Issues in Geochemistry were discussed in the journal articles, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Craton and Magmatism.
Earth and Environmental Science Transactions of The Royal Society of Edinburgh primarily focuses on research topics in Paleontology, Geochemistry, Volcanic ash, Permian and Archaeology. The research on Paleontology discussed in it draws on the closely related field of Epoch (reference date). The research on Geochemistry tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Glacial sediments, Supercritical fluid, Supercritical carbon dioxide, Fossil fuel and Landform.
It addresses concerns in Volcanic ash which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Radiolarite, Ordovician, Provenance, Petrography and Terrigenous sediment. The journal explores issues in Permian which can be linked to other research areas like Captorhinidae, Parareptilia, Cingulum (tooth), Pareiasaur and Bradysaurus. Studies on Archaeology discussed in Earth and Environmental Science Transactions of The Royal Society of Edinburgh link to the field of Ice age.
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 Earth and Environmental Science Transactions of The Royal Society of Edinburgh (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 Earth and Environmental Science Transactions of The Royal Society of Edinburgh (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, 82.61% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 25.00% 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 25.00% of all publications and 50.00% 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)Studying Earth Science in the USA opens many doors to specialized online degree programs that align with diverse career goals. For instance, pursuing a gis degree programs equips students with skills in spatial data analysis, vital for environmental management, urban planning, and disaster response.
Those interested in the physical aspects of Earth can explore the best online geology degree options, offering flexible learning about earth materials, processes, and history—ideal for careers in resource exploration and environmental consulting.
While not directly related to Earth Science, interdisciplinary programs like the online applied behavior analysis degree accelerated can benefit professionals seeking roles in environmental education or community engagement by understanding human behavior and promoting sustainable practices.
Additionally, students can prepare for impactful careers in communication and therapeutic fields by examining requirements for slp graduate programs. Although focused on speech-language pathology, these programs emphasize rigorous graduate preparation, useful for anyone considering complementary career paths.
