Scientific Drilling is mainly concerned with subjects like Drilling, Scientific drilling, Seismology, Paleontology and Oceanography. Drilling works presented in the journal have a specific focus on Coring. The journal explores topics in Scientific drilling which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Mining engineering, Paleoclimatology and Earth science.
Scientific Drilling tackles studies in Mantle (geology) and the interrelated subject of Crust to gain insights into Earth science. The studies tackled, which mainly focus on Seismology, apply to Submarine pipeline as well. Volcano, Structural basin, Tectonics, Stratigraphy and Cretaceous are all aspects of Paleontology research featured in it.
While Scientific Drilling focused on Oceanography, it was also able to explore topics like Glacial period and Cenozoic. The work on Borehole tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like Petrology and Petroleum engineering. It facilitates discussions on Sedimentary rock that incorporate concepts from other fields like Sediment and Geomorphology.
The most cited publications are mainly concerned with subjects like Drilling, Scientific drilling, Paleontology, Coring and Oceanography. While the published articles focused on Drilling, they were also able to explore topics like Subduction, Sediment, Seismology, Fault (geology) and Borehole. The journal publications address concerns in Scientific drilling which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Sedimentary rock, Alluvial fan, Neogene and Crust.
The primary areas of discussion in Scientific Drilling are Drilling, Paleontology, Scientific drilling, International Ocean Discovery Program and Temperature control. It focuses on Drilling but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Geophysics, Contamination, Aptian and Geochemistry, Lithology. Topics like Ammonite, Structural basin, Paleomagnetism, Marl and Cretaceous are tackled as part of the discussions on Paleontology.
The studies on Scientific drilling discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Subduction, Mohorovičić discontinuity, Earth science, Crust and Seafloor spreading. The International Ocean Discovery Program works featured in it incorporate elements from Seawater, Massif, Seabed and Methane. In Scientific Drilling, Mineralogy, Coring and Natural gas are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Temperature control research.
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 Scientific Drilling (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 Scientific Drilling (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, 16.67% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 20.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% 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 80.00% 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)Exploring Earth Science opens doors to diverse career paths, many of which can be enhanced or pursued through online education. For example, understanding the costs associated with an online speech pathology school cost is crucial for planning a professional transition. While not directly Earth Science, this pathway illustrates the variety of options available in scientific and health-related fields.
Careers like autopsy technicians offer insights into forensic science, which often intersects with geological and environmental studies. If you’re wondering how much do autopsy techs make, it’s a good example of assessing salary expectations before committing to a specialized field.
Many students consider advancing their qualifications with an online clinical psychology masters programs. Such interdisciplinary approaches can lead to unique roles combining Earth Science with human and environmental health.
For professionals currently in education, making a career pivot might be appealing. Understanding the steps from teacher to speech pathologist highlights how transitioning to a science-related career can be achievable with the right online programs and guidance.
