The graph shows the changes in the impact factor of Coastal Engineering and its the corresponding percentile for the sake of comparison with the entire literature. Impact Factor is the most common scientometric index, which is defined by the number of citations of papers in two preceding years divided by the number of papers published in those years.
How Influential is Coastal Engineering?
Coastal Engineering is the 8th out of 253 Oceanography journals. This means the journal is among the top 4% in the sub-discipline of Oceanography. This Journal is the 25th out of 210 Environmental Engineering journals. This means the journal is among the top 12% in the sub-discipline of Environmental Engineering. This Journal is the 35th out of 1,091 Earth Science journals. This means the journal is among the top 4% in the discipline of Earth Science. This Journal is the 396th out of 4,401 Applied Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 9% in the science branch of Applied Sciences. This Journal is the 806th out of 11,479 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 8% in the science branch of Physical Sciences.
How are inpact factors calculated?
The impact factor (IF) is calculated by counting citations from peer-reviewed journals only.
extended IF also counts citations from books and conference papers. However, no patent, abstract, working papers, online documents, etc., are covered.
