Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology is a journal where researchers can publish full-length articles describing the source, transport, fate and effects of environmental contaminants. The journal provides a place for the publication of timely, detailed and definitive scientific studies that provide insight into contaminants in the environment, with multidisciplinary contributions from the fields of analytical chemistry, biochemistry, biology, ecology, environmental science and toxicology. The journal attaches importance to manuscripts that advance our understanding of contaminants of concern in air, water, sediments and biota, the fate and behavior of these contaminants in the environment, and effects on the health of plants and animals. All manuscripts should have strong contextual linkages to the environment. Submissions that present an extension or confirmation of topics that have already been extensively studied or are not considered to be of interest to an international readership will not be considered. The journal does not typically consider submissions dealing with contaminant monitoring at a geographically limited scale, occupational exposure and effects in humans, dissipation of chemicals in soils, removals of contaminants in wastewater, or toxicity testing of chemicals that have been well documented and regulated. However, submissions addressing one of these topics may be considered in cases where there is a strong link to the receiving environment, the development of new techniques, or presents a unique data set from a part of the world that has been heretofore poorly investigated.

Quartiles

The set of journals have been ranked according to their SJR and divided into four equal groups, four quartiles. Q1 (green) comprises the quarter of the journals with the highest values, Q2 (yellow) the second highest values, Q3 (orange) the third highest values and Q4 (red) the lowest values.

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.

Cites per Doc

Evolution of the number of total citation per document and external citation per document (i.e. journal self-citations removed) received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. External citations are calculated by subtracting the number of self-citations from the total number of citations received by the journal’s documents.
