Metrics
“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.

Indexing & access
Access status: unknown. Where this comes from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic — confirm on the journal’s own site, especially regarding any article processing charge.

Frequently asked
Is Environmental Policy and Law a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Environmental Policy and Law. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, which is a positive signal.
Is Environmental Policy and Law indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Environmental Policy and Law appears in: Scopus. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Environmental Policy and Law?
Papers in Environmental Policy and Law are cited about 1.4 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 26. 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 Environmental Policy and Law (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
Scimago places Environmental Policy and Law in Q2 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; Environmental Policy and Law is cited about 1.4 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 26. 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 Environmental Policy and Law?
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 Environmental Policy and Law. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q2, 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.
Is Environmental Policy and Law open access?
We hold no reliable open-access classification for Environmental Policy and Law. Check the journal's own site for its access model and any article processing charge.
