The graph shows the changes in the impact factor of Nature Energy 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 Nature Energy?
Nature Energy is the 1st out of 81 Fuel Technology journals. This means the journal is among the top 2% in the sub-discipline of Fuel Technology. This Journal is the 2nd out of 4,401 Applied Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the science branch of Applied Sciences. This Journal is the 2nd out of 568 Energy journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the discipline of Energy. This Journal is the 3rd out of 11,479 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the science branch of Physical Sciences. This Journal is the 3rd out of 1,481 Materials Science journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the discipline of Materials Science. This Journal is the 3rd out of 2,661 Chemistry journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the discipline of Chemistry.
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.
