The objective of Environmental geotechnics is to combine knowledge in the areas of Geotechnical engineering, Waste management, Soil water, Groundwater and Civil engineering. The work on Geotechnical engineering tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like Geosynthetic clay liner and Compressibility. The study on Waste management presented in the journal intersects with the topics under Tailings.
The journal focused on Soil water research but expanded to cover Water content. The Groundwater works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Environmental engineering and Environmental remediation. The majority of Civil engineering studies presented zero in on Geotechnics.
The journal papers aim to foster the development of research in Geotechnical engineering, Soil water, Water content, Civil engineering and Waste management. The journal papers address concerns in Geotechnical engineering which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Ultimate tensile strength, Geosynthetic clay liner and Thermal. Compaction, Environmental engineering, Cementation (geology), Mineralogy and Environmental chemistry are some topics wherein Soil water research discussed in the published articles has an impact.
Environmental geotechnics focuses largely on the fields of Geotechnical engineering, Waste management, Soil science, Municipal solid waste and Soil water. While work presented in the journal provided substantial information on Geotechnical engineering, it also covered topics in Engineering education, Compressibility and Deformation (meteorology). The presented Waste management research focuses mostly on Tailings and, on occasion, topics in Ferrous, Mining engineering and Oil sands.
The concepts on Soil science presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Partial saturation and Biofilm. Topics in Municipal solid waste were tackled in line with various other fields like Compaction, Degradation (geology), Bacterial strain and Settlement (structural), Civil engineering. The studies on Soil water discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Karst, Biopolymer and Polyacrylamide.
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 geotechnics (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 geotechnics (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, 5.71% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 28.79% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 7.58% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.15% of all publications and 48.48% 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 Environmental Sciences in the USA opens doors to diverse career opportunities focused on sustainability, conservation, and environmental protection. Many graduates explore specialized fields, enhancing their expertise through advanced degrees. For those interested in combining healthcare with environmental well-being, the role of a psychiatric nurse practitioner salary by state offers insights into a growing sector that emphasizes mental health and community care.
Online education makes further specialization accessible. For example, students looking to integrate behavioral sciences with environmental concerns might consider online psychology master's programs. These programs provide flexible learning options and affordable pathways for advancing skills.
For those focused strictly on the environment, understanding what can you do with an environmental science major highlights roles in research, policy development, and environmental consulting. Combining science with engineering principles is another effective route.
Students interested in designing sustainable systems can explore environmental engineering degree programs online. These programs train professionals to tackle environmental challenges using innovative technologies.
Whether aiming for science, psychology, or engineering, these related degrees and career pathways complement an Environmental Sciences foundation and expand professional possibilities.
