Impact

• 0.7 Impact Factor 2022
  Journal Impact Factors are published each summer by Thomson Reuters via Journal Citation Reports ®. Impact Factors and ranking data are presented for the preceding calendar year.
• 0.64Source Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP) 2022
  Source Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP) measures contextual citation impact by weighting citations based on the total number of citations in a subject field. The impact of a single citation is given higher value in subject areas where citations are less likely, and vice versa.
• Q3Quartile: Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics 2023
  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.
• 0.30 SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) 2023
  SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) is a measure of scientific influence of scholarly 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.
• 18H-Index 2023
  A journal has an H index of h if it published h papers each of which has been cited in other journals at least h times. Calculations are based on Scopus.

Russian Journal of Biological Invasions  is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original scientific articles dealing with biological invasions of alien species in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and covers the following subjects: description of invasion process (theory, modeling, results of observations and experiments): invasion corridors, invasion vectors, invader species adaptations, vulnerability of native ecosystems; monitoring of invasion process (reports about findings of organisms out of the limits of natural range, propagule pressure assessment, colonization dynamics, rates of naturalization); invasion risk assessment; genetic, evolutional, and ecological consequences of biological invasions of alien species; methods, means of accumulation, processing and presentation of applied research data (new developments, modeling, research results, databases) with factual and geoinformation system applications; use of the results of biological invasion research (methods and new basic results) under the study of marine, freshwater, and terrestrial species, populations, communities, and ecosystems; control, rational use, and eradication of the dangerous alien species. Previously focused on translation, the journal now has the aim to become an international publication and accepts manuscripts originally submitted in English from all countries, along with translated works.

The target audience of the journal are scientists, graduate students, decision-makers at the local, regional and national levels, as well as local, regional, national and international centers for collective use to create a database of alien and invasive species.
