The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Thermodynamics, Metamorphic rock and Mineral. The journal focuses on Geochemistry but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Silicate and Amphibole. Studies on Amphibole discussed in Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry link to the field of Natural (archaeology).
The research on Metamorphic rock discussed in the journal draws on the closely related field of Phase (matter). The work on Mantle (geology) tackled in it brings together disciplines like Basalt and Crust.
The journal articles cover a variety of subjects, including Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Earth science, Zircon and Igneous rock. The published papers explore research in Geochemistry and the adjacent study of Isotope geochemistry. Issues in Mineralogy were discussed in the most cited articles, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Stable isotope ratio, Mineral and Silicate.
The objective of Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry is to combine knowledge in the areas of Isotopes of oxygen, Environmental chemistry, Geochemistry, Inorganic chemistry and Systematics. Isotopes of oxygen research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including In situ, Precambrian, Ion and Analytical chemistry. It facilitates discussions on Environmental chemistry that incorporate concepts from other fields like Atmosphere, Mass-independent fractionation and Water cycle.
Issues in Geochemistry were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Paleoclimatology and Earth (classical element). The Inorganic chemistry works featured in Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry incorporate elements from Sulfate, Carbonate, Nitrate and Silicate. The journal focuses on Isotope but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Perspective (graphical), Econometrics, Oxygen, Climbing and Measure (physics).
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 Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry (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 Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry (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, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 14.29% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.29% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 21.43% of all publications and 50.00% 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.
