The discussions in Natural Hazards mainly cover the fields of Natural hazard, Hydrogeology, Seismology, Flood myth and Hydrology. Some problems in Natural hazard that were presented in Natural Hazards overlapped with concepts under Landslide, Climatology, Hazard, Environmental resource management and Vulnerability. The Landslide study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Cartography.
Issues in Climatology were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Storm, Meteorology, Precipitation and Climate change. Environmental resource management research discussed connects with the study of Natural disaster. Natural Hazards explores the study of Hydrogeology to improve our understanding of the broader topic of Geotechnical engineering.
Studies on Seismology discussed in it link to the field of Magnitude (mathematics). Flood myth research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Floodplain, Flooding (psychology), Environmental planning and Water resource management. Drainage basin and Surface runoff are all topics related to Hydrology research discussed.
The most cited publications explore disciplines such as Natural hazard, Flood myth, Cartography, Hydrology and Hydrogeology. The journal publications hold forums on Natural hazard that merge themes from other disciplines such as Landslide, Natural disaster, Hazard, Environmental resource management and Vulnerability. The most cited articles explore research in Seismology and overlapping concepts in Magnitude (mathematics) to expand the discourse in Hydrogeology.
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 Natural Hazards (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 Natural Hazards (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, 7.27% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 15.27% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 5.60% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 11.06% of all publications and 68.07% 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)For those interested in Environmental Sciences, exploring related online degrees can open doors to specialized career paths. Many students pursue environmental engineering schools online, which focus on designing solutions to complex environmental challenges. These programs blend engineering principles with environmental science, preparing graduates for impactful roles in sustainability and infrastructure.
Another promising avenue lies in environmental health, where professionals work to protect human health through safety regulations and risk management. The environmental health and safety degree online is ideal for individuals aiming to enter this field with flexible learning options tailored to busy schedules.
Interestingly, complementary career paths also include roles like Board Certified Behavior Analysts, often pursued through bcba masters programs, which emphasize behavioral health and therapy. While seemingly unrelated, environmental factors often intersect with mental and behavioral health concerns, highlighting career diversity in related sciences.
For students seeking accelerated options, the 5-year accelerated speech pathology programs offer a fast track to certification, combining rigorous study with practical experience. This pathway reflects how interdisciplinary study can benefit those motivated to make an impact in health and environmental fields alike.
