The journal focuses on Soil water, Environmental chemistry, Agronomy, Organic matter and Soil test. In the journal, Hydrology and Mineralogy are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Soil water research. Spanish Journal of Soil Science focuses on Hydrology as well as the interrelated topic of Soil classification.
Topics in Environmental chemistry were tackled in line with various other fields like Contamination, Cation-exchange capacity, Compost and Pollutant. It focuses on Agronomy but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Soil organic matter, Nutrient and Soil quality. The research on Soil quality featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Soil management, Sustainability, Erosion and Soil retrogression and degradation.
The work on Organic matter addressed in it expands to the thematically related Total organic carbon. The research on Soil carbon tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Cover crop, Tillage, Water content and Soil horizon. Loam is a focus of the Soil science works in the journal.
The published articles primarily tackle Soil water, Environmental chemistry, Organic matter, Humanities and Soil organic matter. While the most cited articles focused on Soil water, they were also able to explore topics like Sedimentation and Environmental remediation. The published papers address concerns in Soil organic matter which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Biogeochemical cycle, Mediterranean climate, Cation-exchange capacity and Resistance (ecology).
Spanish Journal of Soil Science primarily focuses on research topics in Forestry, Soil retrogression and degradation, Soil water, Horticulture and Humanities. Some problems in Forestry that were presented in Spanish Journal of Soil Science overlapped with concepts under Valencia, Essential oil, Soil parameters and Pistacia lentiscus. Soil retrogression and degradation research featured in the journal incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Soil management, Edaphic, Soil fertility and Soil conservation.
The featured works in Soil structure, which all belong in the domain if Soil water, also overlaps with concepts under Fertility. It focused on works that combine different research areas such as Humanities and Chemical diversity.
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 Spanish Journal of Soil 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 Spanish Journal of Soil 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, 42.86% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 0.00% 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 50.00% 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.

(2020)Exploring online degrees related to Plant Science and Agronomy offers flexible learning options for those looking to advance their careers from anywhere in the USA. For instance, students interested in healthcare alongside agricultural sciences might consider programs such as the adn to fnp pathway, which transitions registered nurses to Family Nurse Practitioners. This could complement agronomic knowledge with a healthcare perspective, especially in rural communities.
When seeking cost-effective education, the cheapest direct entry msn programs offer accelerated routes for non-nurses to enter the medical field, opening up further interdisciplinary career options related to agricultural health and safety.
Students returning to formal education might compare different program formats such as chamberlain vs capella rn to bsn program options, weighing factors like flexibility, accreditation, and focus areas. Choosing the right program can impact career progression and specialization within agronomy and allied health sectors.
For those interested in combining natural sciences with healthcare, understanding how to become a functional medicine nurse practitioner is valuable. This career path emphasizes holistic and plant-based approaches, aligning well with agronomic principles and sustainable agricultural practices.
