The discussions in The APPEA Journal mainly cover the fields of Structural basin, Paleontology, Petroleum engineering, Petroleum and Submarine pipeline. While Structural basin is the focus of it, it also provided insights into the studies of Geochemistry and Drilling. Cretaceous, Sedimentary rock, Sedimentary depositional environment, Facies and Unconformity are among the concentrations of Paleontology that garnered much attention in the journal.
The published articles cover a variety of subjects, including Paleontology, Structural basin, Geochemistry, Source rock and Cretaceous. Aside from discussions in Paleontology, the journal articles also deal with the subject of Geomorphology which intersects with Lithology disciplines. The journal papers focus on Structural basin but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Oceanography and Petrology.
The APPEA Journal mainly deals with areas of study such as Structural basin, Paleontology, Nuclear decommissioning, Sedimentary rock and Fossil fuel. In the journal, Trough (geology), Geochemistry, Submarine pipeline and Petroleum are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Structural basin research. While work presented in The APPEA Journal provided substantial information on Geochemistry, it also covered topics in Kerogen, Source rock, Permian and Halite.
The APPEA Journal tackles issues in Paleontology, particularly in the topics of Cretaceous, Fault (geology), Passive margin, Group (stratigraphy) and Sedimentary depositional environment. The studies on Sedimentary rock discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Basement (geology), Geomechanics, Facies and Natural gas. It facilitates discussions on Fossil fuel that incorporate concepts from other fields like Pipeline transport, Natural resource economics, Greenhouse gas, Petroleum industry and Liquefied natural gas.
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 The APPEA Journal (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 The APPEA Journal (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, 45.63% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 73.21% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.50% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 7.14% of all publications and 7.14% 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 those interested in expanding their expertise beyond traditional engineering disciplines, online degrees in project management and architecture offer versatile career options. Many students ask, is project management a good degree? The answer largely depends on your career goals, but with industries increasingly valuing leadership and organizational skills, project management is a strong complement to technical degrees.
If architecture intrigues you, exploring the best online architecture schools can help you find programs that balance flexibility with rigorous training. Accelerated options also exist for those eager to enter the field quickly. For instance, a fast track architecture degree can be completed in less than two years, allowing for a speedy transition into professional practice.
Similarly, if you wish to fast-forward your project management career, several universities offer an online project management degree accelerated. These programs provide a focused, time-efficient curriculum that prepares students for leadership roles in technical and non-technical environments alike.
Choosing the right online degree pathway can complement your engineering background, ultimately broadening your opportunities in dynamic and interdisciplinary fields.
