Abstract:

[Purposes] Basing on the comparison of the status quo between the Chinese SCI-indexed English journals and world first-class journals in environmental science, this paper introduces the strategies of Journal of Environmental Sciences (JES) on the improvement of international impact, which is expected to provide valuable experience for the development of English journals in environmental science in China. [Methods] With the data from the official websites of selected journals, Web of Science, JCR, and Elsevier, we analyzed the gap between Chinese SCI-indexed English journals and world first-class journals in environmental science. Furthermore, we expounded the strategies of JES on international impact enhancement and the corresponding outcomes during the support by phase Ⅰ and phase Ⅱ of Project for Enhancing International Impact of China STM Journals. [Findings] In the field of environmental science, Chinese SCI-indexed English journals were far inferior to world first-class journals in the scale of publication, metrics in JCR, and international impact. JES adopted the following major strategies for internal development: establishing an international editorial team, adopting the international editing system, and enhancing international publicity through multiple channels. As a result, JES witnessed significant improvement in metrics in JCR, increased downloads in ScienceDirect, and significant increase in the number of foreign authors and readers. [Conclusions] The internationalization strategies significantly improves the academic quality and international impact of JES, which can provide a reference for the international development of English journals in environmental science in China.
