Scope

Soil Systems (ISSN 2571-8789) is a new journal devoted to publishing reviews, regular research papers, communications and short notes focusing on biological, (bio)chemical, and physical processes operating within soils and sediments. We are particularly interested in studies or review articles that examine (or describe) coupled processes operating within these complex media that control element cycling, interactions occurring at the interface between soil minerals, organic matter, and microorganisms. Processes contributing to the development or loss of soils are also of interest. Subject areas: -Soil development- Soil degradation- Biological and biogeochemical processes- Chemical processes- Physical processes- Interactions on soil interfaces- Impact of disturbance (fire, spills, flooding, overgrazing, erosion, etc.) on soil processes- Impact of soil management on soil processes- Soil as C and N sink- Cycling of elements- Nutrient cycling- Soil–plant–microbiome interaction- Dynamic of pollutants and xenobiotics in soils- New analytical tools for a better understanding of soil processes Join the conversation about this journal
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.
