Ranking (2005)
We continue to strive to improve the standing of AAAR as an academic journal. Our ISI Impact Factor was 1.045 for 2005. We have maintained a sound position in the middle of our subject categories (76/ 140 among environmental science journals, and 17/30 among physical geography journals). You can explore these interesting comparisons in the Journal Citation Reports at http://portal.isiknowledge.com/.
An important piece of the impact factor derives from publishing papers that others want to cite. This means ensuring that the papers we publish have significance to a broad audience, and uphold standards of scientific integrity. We receive almost twice the number of papers that we can potentially publish. We normally publish around 70 papers per year.
