The journal mostly deals with topics like Geophysics, Astronomy, Astrophysics, Atmospheric sciences and Atomic physics. While Planetary and Space Science focused on Geophysics, it was also able to explore topics like Computational physics, Earth's magnetic field, Magnetosphere and Solar wind. Computational physics and Magnetic field are closely related fields of research discussed in it.
The Solar wind research presented places emphasis on topics like Interplanetary magnetic field and Magnetopause. Studies on Astronomy discussed in the journal link to the field of Astrobiology. The majority of Astrophysics studies presented zero in on Cosmic ray.
Atmospheric sciences research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Atmosphere, Thermosphere, Altitude and Latitude. Some problems in Atomic physics that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Plasma, Ion, Ionization, Excitation and Electron. The work on Ionosphere addressed in the journal expands to the thematically related Electric field.
The journal papers generally zeroe in on subjects such as Geophysics, Atomic physics, Atmospheric sciences, Ionosphere and Magnetosphere. The journal articles tackle studies in Solar wind and the interrelated subject of Astronomy to gain insights into Geophysics. While the primary focus in the most cited articles is Atmospheric sciences, they also dissect topics surrounding Atmosphere and Planet and Venus as a whole.
The main research concerns discussed in the journal are Mars Exploration Program, Asteroid, Martian, Spacecraft and Astrophysics. The journal addresses concerns in Mars Exploration Program which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Computational physics, Thermal, Mineralogy and Remote sensing. The study on Computational physics presented is investigated in conjunction with research in Electron.
The journal explores issues in Martian which can be linked to other research areas like Sedimentary rock, Atmosphere, Atmospheric sciences and Earth science. Topics in Atmospheric sciences were tackled in line with various other fields like Haze, Dust storm and Altitude. The Planet research presented falls under the domain of Astronomy.
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 Planetary and Space Science (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 Planetary and Space Science (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, 7.20% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 22.41% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.66% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 16.38% of all publications and 46.55% 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 Earth Science, expanding your education through related online degrees can open diverse career opportunities. While studying Earth Science, exploring fields like speech pathology might seem unrelated, but career changes are common. For example, professionals looking to shift roles can consider becoming a speech pathologist, which requires specialized training available online.
If you're interested in speech pathology as a complementary field, many accredited programs now offer flexible options. Finding an asha accredited online slp master's programs ensures you meet professional standards without disrupting your career or lifestyle.
Choosing the right institution is crucial when pursuing any online degree. Many students prefer enrolling in a non profit online university to ensure quality education that’s affordable and trustworthy. These schools often provide robust support for online learners, which is essential for success in any scientific or health-related discipline.
Additionally, military personnel and veterans interested in Earth Science or related careers benefit from attending an online military college. These institutions offer tailored programs that accommodate service members’ unique schedules and provide valuable resources throughout their educational journey.
