Geoscience Letters focuses on Climatology, Seismology, Biogeosciences, Planetary science and Oceanography. Precipitation, Climate model and Atmospheric sciences are some topics wherein Climatology research discussed in the journal have an impact. Research on Climate model presented in it concerns the broader topic of Climate change.
Fault (geology), Induced seismicity, Tectonics, Seismic hazard and Subduction are all aspects of Seismology discussed in it. The study on Induced seismicity featured in Geoscience Letters expounds on the topic of Focal mechanism in particular. It focuses on Planetary science as well as the interrelated topic of Geophysics.
The journal holds forums on Geophysics that merges themes from other disciplines such as Solar wind and Substorm. The journal investigates Substorm research which frequently intersects with Ionosphere.
The published articles primarily tackle Climatology, Seismology, Oceanography, Geophysics and Global warming. The most cited articles explore research in Atmospheric sciences and overlapping concepts in Nitrogen dioxide and Air quality index to expand the discourse in Climatology. Aside from discussions in Geophysics, the journal papers also deal with the subject of Gravity wave which intersects with Atmosphere, Thermosphere and Ionosphere disciplines.
The foci of Geoscience Letters are Climatology, Biogeosciences, Seismology, Water resource management and Sea surface temperature. It explores research in Boreal and overlapping concepts in Ekman transport to expand the discourse in Climatology. Seismic moment, Tectonics, Fault (geology) and Large earthquakes studies in the realm of Seismology interact with fields like Statistical inference.
The research on Fault (geology) tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Point cloud and Satellite. In it, Estuary, Climate change and Groundwater are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Water resource management research. Sea surface temperature research presented in Geoscience Letters encompasses a variety of subjects, including Precipitation and Oceanic basin.
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 Geoscience Letters (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 Geoscience Letters (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, 3.12% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 45.16% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.68% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 19.35% of all publications and 25.81% 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)Exploring related online degrees can broaden your opportunities in Environmental Sciences. For example, understanding different therapy degrees can complement careers in environmental health and community outreach by addressing the mental well-being of populations affected by environmental changes.
Many professionals also consider advanced healthcare roles linked to environmental factors, such as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. Insights into nurse practitioner salary variations by state can help guide career decisions in areas impacted by environmental stressors.
For those looking to deepen their expertise, choosing affordable education options is crucial. Programs like the cheapest online master's degree in psychology offer flexible learning paths that intersect with environmental behavior studies and public health.
Finally, a degree in Environmental Sciences opens doors to high-demand roles. Discover more about high-paying jobs with environmental science degree to find careers that align with your passion for the environment and sustainability.
