The graph shows the changes in the impact factor of Physics and Chemistry of the Earth 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 Physics and Chemistry of the Earth?
Physics and Chemistry of the Earth is the 23rd out of 133 Geophysics journals. This means the journal is among the top 18% in the sub-discipline of Geophysics. This Journal is the 355th out of 2,084 Physics journals. This means the journal is among the top 18% in the discipline of Physics. This Journal is the 1867th out of 11,479 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 17% 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.
