An Official Journal of the Association for Environmental Health and Science and the International Phytotechnology Society. 2009 Impact Factor: 1.321Ranking: 109/181 (Environmental Sciences)2009 5-Year Impact Factor: 1.852Ranking: 84/181 (Environmental Sciences)169; 2010 Thomson Reuters, Journal Citation Reports174; The International Journal of Phytoremediation is the first journal devoted to the publication of current laboratory and field research describing the use of plant systems to remediate contaminated environments. Phytoremediation refers to a diverse group of green technologies that use either naturally occurring or genetically engineered plants to decontaminate polluted air, soil, and water. Phytoremediation technologies currently fall into the following five categories:PhytodegradationPhytostabilizationPhytovolatizationPhytoextraction, including rhizofiltrationEnhanced rhizosphere biodegradation The journal is an international, peer-reviewed publication designed to link professionals in the many environmental disciplines involved in the development, application, management, and regulation of emerging phytoremediation technologies. Manuscripts will be considered that address any of a wide range of issues and interests associated with the entire field of phytoremediation. High quality, original articles make up the primary content, with additional contributions as technical notes, short communications, editorials, and occasional invited review articles. Prior to publication, manuscripts must pass a rigorous peer review process managed by the editor-in-chief. The journal also publishes letters to the editor, book/software reviews, new products and patent information, and announcements of upcoming conferences and courses.The scope of the International Journal of Phytoremediation includes:Use of phytoremediation processes for environmental restoration.Hybrid technologies combining chemical, physical, and/or other biological processes with phytoremediation.Any stage of technology development and validation, from basic laboratory research and bench-scale testing to pilot-and full-scale field application.Field applications or descriptions of the effects of contaminants and other forms of stress on phytoremediation systems.Examinations of the social framework for phytoremediation, including regulatory, economic, and public perception issues. Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

International Journal of Plant & Soil Science (2320-7035) aims to publish high quality papers (Click here for Types of paper) in all areas of ‘Plant & Soil Science research’. The journal also encourages the submission of useful reports of negative results. This is a quality controlled, OPEN peer reviewed, open access INTERNATIONAL journal.

International Journal of Plant Biology is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal on all different subdisciplines of plant biology, published quarterly online by MDPI (from Volume 13, Issue 1 - 2022).

A major outlet for botanical research since 1875, the International Journal of Plant Sciences presents the results of original, peer-reviewed investigations from laboratories around the world in all areas of the plant sciences. Topics covered include genetics and genomics, developmental and cell biology, biochemistry and physiology, morphology and structure, systematics, plant-microbe interactions, paleobotany, evolution, and ecology.IJPS emphasizes dynamic rather than purely descriptive work and welcomes contributions that present evaluations and new perspectives on areas of current interest in plant biology. Studies concerned with techniques or methods are acceptable if accompanied by illustrative observations or quantitative data. IJPS also regularly features special issues on topics of particular interest, including new and exciting research originally presented at major botanical conferences.

The purpose of the journal is to report original research on all aspects of plastic deformation, damage and fracture behaviour of isotropic as well as anisotropic solids, including the thermodynamics of plasticity and fracture, continuum theory, and macroscopic as well as microscopic phenomena.The topics of interest include plastic behaviour of single crystals and polycrystalline metals, ceramics, rocks and soils, composites, nanocrystalline and microelectronics materials, shape memory alloys, ferroelectric ceramics, thin films and polymers, as well as plasticity aspects of failure and fracture mechanics. Significant experimental, numerical or theoretical contributions advancing the understanding of plastic behaviour of solids are of special interest, together with studies relating macroscopic to the microscopic behaviour of solids. Papers on modeling of finite nonlinear elastic deformation, with similarities to modeling of plastic deformation, are also welcome.The Journal will contain research papers, review articles, research notes, letters to the editor, and academic advertisements (books, journals, conferences, and symposia). Strain-rate dependent and strain-rate independent constitutive models to predict observed phemonena during quasi-static, dynamic or cyclic thermo-mechanical loading, behaviour of granular or porous solids under high confining pressures and at high temperatures, multiscale modeling of various deformation mechanisms (dislocation, twinning, and phase transformation), and models with capability for predicting the behaviour of composite materials based onknown plastic behaviour of matrix and fibers in such materials, are some examples of the main themes of this journal. Revealing applications of the new models of plasticity, including modelling of the observed phenomena in metal forming processes are also of interest.

The International Journal of Plastics Technology aims to disseminate research advancements in the areas of Polymer/Plastics Engineering & Technology. The Journal covers research and developments in the areas of polymeric materials, blends & alloys, composites, nanocomposites, plastics processing, mould & product design, recycling and application development.
