“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 (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).

Frequently asked
Is International Journal of Environmental Studies a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag International Journal of Environmental Studies. 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, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is International Journal of Environmental Studies indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, International Journal of Environmental Studies appears in: Scopus, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of International Journal of Environmental Studies?
Papers in International Journal of Environmental Studies are cited about 2.3 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 79. 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 International Journal of Environmental Studies (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, International Journal of Environmental Studies is Q3 in all 5 of its subject categories. By category: Computers in Earth Sciences: Q3, #41 of 71; Waste Management and Disposal: Q3, #98 of 152; Pollution: Q3, #116 of 178; Ecology: Q3, #280 of 496; Geography, Planning and Development: Q3, #446 of 853. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; International Journal of Environmental Studies is cited about 2.3 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 79.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of International Journal of Environmental Studies?
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 International Journal of Environmental Studies. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q3, 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 International Journal of Environmental Studies open access?
Our index records its access status as "subscription". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
