Environmental Forensics was organized to reinforce research efforts on Environmental chemistry, Environmental engineering, Contamination, Groundwater and Hydrology. Environmental chemistry research is the primary subject tackled in the journal with a focus on Heavy metals. Environmental Forensics investigates Environmental engineering research which frequently intersects with Waste management.
Environmental Forensics is mostly focused on Waste management, specifically Gasoline. It primarily discusses Groundwater topics, particularly Aquifer and Groundwater pollution. Environmental Forensics features studies on Soil water, including topics such as Soil test.
Environmental Forensics facilitates the exploration of Particulates in relation to the field of Ambient air.
The most cited articles are organized to address concerns in the fields of Environmental chemistry, Waste management, Contamination, Environmental engineering and Gas chromatography. While Environmental chemistry is the focus of the journal papers, it also provides insights into the studies of Soil test, Particulates, Metal, Hydrocarbon and Carbon. The published papers focus on Waste management but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Biodegradation, Petroleum product and Carbon tetrachloride.
The journal mainly tackles studies in Environmental chemistry, Contamination, Water resource management, Groundwater and Hydrology. Environmental chemistry and Arsenic are closely related fields of research discussed in it. While work presented in it provided substantial information on Contamination, it also covered topics in Oceanography and Pollution.
While it focused on Water resource management, it was also able to explore topics like Groundwater pollution and Aquifer. The study on Groundwater presented in Environmental Forensics intersects with subjects under the field of China. Water quality is a major topic of Hydrology research.
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 Environmental Forensics (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 Environmental Forensics (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, 8.54% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 17.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 1.33% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 21.33% of all publications and 60.00% 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)Pursuing a degree in Environmental Sciences opens doors to various interdisciplinary career pathways. Many students also consider complementary fields such as mental health and therapy, given the growing emphasis on community well-being and environmental impacts on human health.
For those interested in mental health, exploring online marriage and family therapy graduate programs can provide specialized skills to support families in environmental or crisis situations. Understanding the types of therapist degrees helps students select the right educational path, whether aiming for clinical work or research.
Careers such as psychiatric nurse practitioners are also relevant, as these professionals work on the frontline treating mental health issues that can arise from environmental stressors. Insights into mental health NP salary by state can help students evaluate financial benefits alongside passion for the field.
Finally, affordable education is crucial, and students may find value in pursuing one of the cheapest online master’s in psychology programs, which can complement environmental studies with a strong foundation in human behavior and mental health.
