Abstract

The 2022 JCR included ESCI journals for the first time, increasing the number of publication titles by approximately 60%. In this paper, the subcategory Mining and Mineral Processing (part of the Engineering and Geosciences category, where 12 of the ESCI journals were merged with the 20 SCIEx ones) is presented and analyzed. Only three of the ESCI journals included in the database were ranked Q1/Q2. The inclusion of the entire ESCI added new content for readers and authors relying on JCR sources. This paper offers authors, researchers, and publishers in the Mining and Mineral Processing field practical insights into the potential benefits and challenges associated with the changing landscape of indexed journals, as well as in-depth, systematic analyses that provide potential authors with the opportunity to select the most suitable journal for submitting their papers.

合并 SCIEx 和 ESCI 数据库时 WoS 中的采矿和矿物加工期刊及其排名--基于 JCR 2022 数据的案例研究

2022 年 JCR 首次收录了 ESCI 期刊，使出版刊物数量增加了约 60%。本文介绍并分析了采矿与矿物加工子类别（工程与地球科学类别的一部分，其中 12 种ESCI 期刊与 20 种 SCIEx 期刊合并）。在数据库收录的 ESCI 期刊中，只有 3 种期刊被评为 Q1/Q2。纳入整个ESCI为读者和依赖JCR来源的作者增加了新内容。本文为采矿和矿物加工领域的作者、研究人员和出版商提供了实用的见解，让他们了解索引期刊不断变化的形势可能带来的益处和挑战，以及深入、系统的分析，为潜在作者提供了选择最适合提交论文的期刊的机会。
