Scope/Description:
Ocean Science Journal is a scientific journal published quarterly (30th March, June, September, December) by the Korean Society of Oceanography (KSO) and Korea Institute of Ocean Science & Technology (KIOST). OSJ is international and interdisciplinary. Research articles, reviews and notes dealing with physical oceanography, biological oceanography/marine biology, chemical oceanography/marine chemistry, geological oceanography/marine geology, and marine pollution will be considered. Ocean Science covers the following fields: • physical oceanography: waves, currents, air-sea interaction, ocean modeling, coastal processes, water masses • biological oceanography/marine biology: plankton, benthic organisms, fish, ecology, molecular biology • chemical oceanography/marine chemistry: trace elements, isotopes, nutrients, organic substances, gases • geological oceanography/marine geology: geophysics, sedimentology, paleontology, paleogeopraphy, sediment dynamics • marine pollution: pollutants analysis and monitoring, fates of contaminants, aquatic toxicology, ecotoxicology • Promotes all aspects of ocean science, experimental, theoretical and laboratory researches OSJ aims to publish a very high quality scientific journal for researchers and other interested people throughout the world.

Impact Factor
The impact factor (IF) or journal impact factor (JIF) of an academic journal is a scientometric factor based on the yearly average number of citations on articles published by a particular journal in the last two years. In other words, the impact factor of 2024 - 2025 is the average of the number of cited publications divided by the citable publications of a journal. A journal impact factor is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field. Normally, journals with higher impact factors are often deemed to have more influence than those with lower ones. However, the science community has also noted that review articles typically are more citable than research articles.Here you can check the journal performance trends based on last 20 years of data, also check the latest journal citation reports 2025. Also Check H-Index, SCImago journal rank and journal impact factor 2025.

Other Journal Impact Indicator
Any journal impact factor or scientometric indicator alone will not give you the full picture of a science journal. That’s why every year, scholars review current metrics to improve upon them and sometimes come up with new ones. There are also other factors to sider for example, H-Index, Self-Citation Ratio, SJR (SCImago Journal Rank Indicator) and SNIP (Source Normalized Impact per Paper). Researchers may also consider the practical aspect of a journal such as publication fees, acceptance rate, review speed.
