Scope/Description:

Island Arc attracts an international audience with its prompt publication of peer-reviewed papers on the growing earth geoscience research activities of the western Pacific Rim and Asia. Island Arc focuses on the structure, dynamics and evolution of plate convergence zones including trenches, island and continental arcs, back-arc basins and collision zones in modern and ancient settings. The Journal also deals with topics that may not be specific to plate convergence zones but are fundamental to understanding them. Papers which discuss the interaction between solid earth, atmosphere, and water bodies are also welcome. Articles of immediate importance to other researchers, either by virtue of their new data, results or ideas are given priority publication.

Impact Factor

Impact factor (IF) is a scientometric factor based on the yearly average number of citations on articles published by a particular journal in the last two years. A journal impact factor is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field. Find out more: What is a good impact factor?


III. Other Science Influence Indicators

Any impact factor or scientometric indicator alone will not give you the full picture of a science journal. There are also other factors such as H-Index, Self-Citation Ratio, SJR, SNIP, etc. Researchers may also consider the practical aspect of a journal such as publication fees, acceptance rate, review speed.
