The aim of the journal is to expand the discussion of research in Paleontology, Archaeology, Geomorphology, Geochemistry and Pleistocene. In addition to Paleontology research, it aims to explore topics under Oceanography and Peninsula. Many of the studies tackled connect Archaeology with a similar field of study like Period (geology).
It features Geomorphology research that overlaps with concepts in Physical geography. Topics like Tephra, Volcano, Volcanic ash and Pyroclastic rock are tackled as part of the discussions on Geochemistry. The Pleistocene research dealing mostly with Interglacial is the focus of it.
While Holocene is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Bay, Marine transgression and Sea level. Quaternary and Seismology are closely related fields of research discussed in it. Research on Seismology presented in the journal focuses, in particular, on Fault (geology) and Tectonics.
The most cited papers tackle a plethora of topics, such as Paleontology, Quaternary, Holocene, Oceanography and Geomorphology. The most cited papers explore topics in Quaternary which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Archaeology, Pleistocene, Shore, Geochemistry and Island arc. The Oceanography research presented in the journal papers focuses mostly on Marine transgression and, on occasion, topics in Landform.
The Quaternary Research (daiyonki-kenkyu) facilitates discussions on Geochemistry, Archaeology, Isolation (health care), Seismology and Strand plain. The Quaternary Research (daiyonki-kenkyu) facilitates discussions in Pottery as part of the larger field of Archaeology, however, it also tackles fields such as Residue (complex analysis).
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 Quaternary Research (daiyonki-kenkyu) (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 Quaternary Research (daiyonki-kenkyu) (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, 60.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 50.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 50.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 0.00% 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 studying Earth Science in the USA, online education offers flexible and affordable options. Many students seek the online colleges that provide quality programs without breaking the bank. These institutions often balance cost with accredited curricula and support services.
Not everyone has a strong academic record, but that doesn’t mean opportunities are limited. Several programs accept students with lower academic standings, making it easier to pursue a degree without strict academic barriers. You can find reputable online college with no gpa requirements, giving hopeful Earth Science students more pathways to success.
Specialized fields like Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are increasingly relevant in Earth Science careers. For those interested in data mapping, spatial analysis, and environmental planning, exploring the best gis programs online can provide modern skills highly sought after in numerous industries.
Similarly, pursuing an online geoscience degree is another viable path. These programs cover geology, earth systems, and resource management, enabling graduates to step confidently into careers like environmental consulting, resource exploration, or education.
