What is the impact factor of Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition?

Papers in Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition are cited about 7.8 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 300. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.

What Scimago quartile is Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?

Scimago places Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition in Q1 for its subject category. Quartiles split the journals in a field into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition is cited about 7.8 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 300. A journal is ranked per subject category, so one spanning several fields can sit in different quartiles depending on the category.

What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition?

The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q1, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
