The journal focuses on Structural geology, Geochemistry, Sedimentology, Mineral resource classification and Paleontology. Structural geology research featured in the journal incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Fault (geology), Tectonics, Shear zone and Geomorphology. The Geochemistry study featured in it draws parallels with the field of Petrology.
In it, Sedimentary rock, Sedimentary depositional environment and Oceanography are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Sedimentology research. Cretaceous, Structural basin, Rift, Paleozoic and Facies are all areas of Paleontology tackled in it. The Zircon study featured in the journal draws connections with the study of Geochronology.
The most cited publications generally zeroe in on subjects such as Geochemistry, Structural geology, Paleontology, Sedimentology and Geomorphology. The published papers focus on Geochemistry but sometimes tackle the closely related topic of Petrology which is concerned with Eclogite. The most cited articles address concerns in the field of Structural geology by exploring it in line with topics in Shear zone which intersect with Shear (geology) subjects.
The concepts of Geochemistry, Structural geology, Sedimentology, Paleontology and Zircon are tackled in the journal. It tackles studies in Subduction and the interrelated subject of Lithosphere, Crust and Continental crust to gain insights into Geochemistry. Issues in Structural geology were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Tectonics, Shear zone, Fault (geology), Petrology and Massif.
The studies on Sedimentology discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Mineral resource classification, Unconformity, Biostratigraphy, Outcrop and Marine transgression. The research on Zircon featured in International Journal of Earth Sciences combines topics in other fields like Rhyolite, Volcanic rock, Felsic, Mafic and Pluton. While Metamorphic rock is the focus of it, it also provided insights into the studies of Metamorphism and Biotite.
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 International Journal of Earth Sciences (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 International Journal of Earth Sciences (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, 6.25% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 15.15% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 8.48% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 26.06% of all publications and 50.30% 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.
