Geosynthetics International is mainly concerned with subjects like Geotechnical engineering, Geosynthetics, Geotextile, Structural engineering and Geomembrane. The subject of Geosynthetic clay liner, which is connected to the field of Bentonite, serves as the foundation of the Geotechnical engineering research featured in Geosynthetics International. The research on Geosynthetics featured in it combines topics in other fields like Bearing capacity, Finite element method, High-density polyethylene, Reinforcement and Levee.
The High-density polyethylene study which was featured in the journal aims to expound on the research in Polyethylene. It connects the study in Reinforcement with the closely related area of Creep. Geosynthetics International explores topics in Geotextile which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Permeability (earth sciences), Filtration, Dewatering and Drainage.
While Structural engineering is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Settlement (structural) and Parametric statistics. Geomembrane research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Composite number, Direct shear test and Leachate. The presentations focused mostly on Direct shear test in an attempt to further explore topics in Shear (geology).
The journal articles focus largely on the fields of Geotechnical engineering, Geosynthetics, Structural engineering, Geotextile and Geogrid. The majority of Geotechnical engineering studies in the most cited publications are focused on the issues of Geomembrane. The journal publications explore research in Finite element method and overlapping concepts in Consolidation (soil) to expand the discourse in Geosynthetics.
The journal was organized to reinforce research efforts on Geotechnical engineering, Geosynthetics, Geogrid, Geotextile and Soil water. Aside from investigating topics in Settlement (structural) under Geotechnical engineering, Geosynthetics International also explores concepts in Clogging. It facilitates discussions on Geosynthetics that incorporate concepts from other fields like Geosynthetic clay liner, Foundation (engineering), Geomembrane, Drainage and Reinforcement.
While work presented in it provided substantial information on Geogrid, it also covered topics in Expansive clay, Direct shear test, Model test and Base course. Topics in Geotextile explored in the journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Impact test, Flood control and Sewage treatment. The journal addresses concerns in Soil water which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Electrokinetic phenomena, Soil arching and Observational method.
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 Geosynthetics International (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 Geosynthetics International (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, 33.33% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 22.73% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 4.55% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 20.45% of all publications and 52.27% 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.

(2020)For students interested in studying Environmental Sciences in the USA, exploring related online degrees can open doors to diverse career opportunities. Many professionals complement their environmental knowledge with degrees in fields like psychology or counseling, enhancing their skills in human behavior and community engagement. For example, pursuing a counselling degree can be a valuable pathway for those aiming to work in environmental advocacy or public health.
Additionally, healthcare careers such as psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners show promising growth and competitive salaries across states. Understanding the psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner salary landscape helps prospective students evaluate the financial benefits of integrating health sciences with environmental studies.
Online education options continue to expand, with programs like the online psychology masters offering flexible opportunities for students balancing education with professional commitments.
Graduates with an environmental science degree have a broad spectrum of career possibilities, from conservation and policy to research and education. Discover more about what can you do with an environmental science degree to better understand how this versatile major can align with your interests and goals.
