International Journal of Wildland Fire is mainly concerned with subjects like Fire regime, Vegetation, Boreal, Meteorology and Mediterranean climate. International Journal of Wildland Fire focuses on Fire regime research as part of the broader topic of Ecology. Species richness, Habitat, Shrub, Biomass (ecology) and Disturbance (ecology) are all topics related to Ecology research discussed.
The studies in Vegetation featured incorporate elements of Agronomy, Atmospheric sciences, Forestry, Ecosystem and Remote sensing. While Boreal is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Shrubland, Climate change, Fire ecology, Taiga and Prescribed burn. Meteorology research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as El Niño Southern Oscillation, Mechanics, Ignition system and Environmental resource management.
The El Niño Southern Oscillation research presented in the journal explores the relationship between Fire weather and the closely related topic of Fuel load. The study on Climatology presented in International Journal of Wildland Fire intersects with the topics under Precipitation. It investigates Hydrology research which frequently intersects with Moisture.
The journal articles primarily tackle Fire regime, Vegetation, Boreal, Mediterranean climate and Meteorology. Research in Fire regime discussed in the most cited articles is concerned with the study of Ecology as a whole. The Vegetation research presented in the most cited publications focuses mostly on Water content and, on occasion, topics in Moisture.
The main research concerns discussed in the journal are Vegetation, Atmospheric sciences, Meteorology, Physical geography and Peat. Research in Boreal and the interrelating topic of Fire regime were among the subjects of interest in the Vegetation studies discussed in International Journal of Wildland Fire. Discussions in the journal are anchored in the subject of Fire regime and the similar topic of Forestry.
Fuel load and Rate of spread are some topics wherein Meteorology research discussed in the journal have an impact. It explores issues in Physical geography which can be linked to other research areas like Hazard and Wildland–urban interface. International Journal of Wildland Fire explores research in Peat alongside concepts in Smouldering and other areas of study in Water content.
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 Wildland Fire (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 Wildland Fire (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, 6.33% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 32.43% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.46% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 12.16% of all publications and 45.95% 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 Plant Science and Agronomy, exploring related online degrees can broaden career prospects. Fields like public health and nursing often intersect with agricultural studies, particularly in areas related to environmental health and food safety. Pursuing an online public health masters program, especially those known as easiest to get into, can provide valuable expertise on managing the impact of agriculture on communities.
Additionally, accelerated nurse practitioner programs offer a fast-track option for those seeking clinical roles that support rural or underserved farming populations. These programs focus on practical skills and advanced healthcare knowledge, complementing agronomy with an understanding of human health.
When considering advanced degrees, cost is a major factor. Many students look for cheap DNP options that deliver quality education without excessive debt. Understanding the average DNP salary by state can help evaluate the return on investment for these programs, ensuring financial feasibility alongside career growth.
By integrating knowledge from these related fields, graduates can expand their impact, whether through research, healthcare, or policy development. For specific program options, review the average DNP salary by state, online public health masters programs easy to get into, nurse practitioner accelerated program, and cheap DNP resources.
