Journal Title：Environmental Forensics

Environmental Forensics provides a forum for scientific investigations that address environment contamination, its sources, and the historical reconstruction of its release into the environment. The context for investigations that form the published papers in the journal are often subjects to regulatory or legal proceedings, public scrutiny, and debate. In all contexts, rigorous scientific underpinnings guide the subject investigations.

Specifically, the journal is an international, quarterly, peer-reviewed publication offering scientific studies that explore or are relevant to the source, age, fate, transport, as well as human health and ecological effects of environmental contamination. Journal subject matter encompasses all aspects of contamination mentioned above within the environmental media of air, water, soil, sediments and biota. Data evaluation and analysis approaches are highlighted as well including multivariate statistical methods. Journal focus is on scientific and technical information, data, and critical analysis in the following areas:

-Contaminant Fingerprinting for source identification and/or age-dating, including (but not limited to) chemical, isotopic, chiral, mineralogical/microscopy techniques, DNA and tree-ring fingerprinting

-Specific Evaluative Techniques for source identification and/or age-dating including (but not limited to) historical document and aerial photography review, signature chemicals, atmospheric tracers and markets forensics, background concentration evaluations.

-Statistical Evaluation, Contaminant Modeling and Data Visualization

-Vapor Intrusion including delineating the source and background values of indoor air contamination

-Integrated Case Studies, employing environmental fate techniques

-Legal Considerations, including strategic considerations for environmental fate in litigation and arbitration, and regulatory statutes and actions

《環境取證》為科學調查提供了一個論壇，旨在解決環境污染、污染源以及污染釋放到環境中的歷史重建問題。期刊上發表的論文的調查背景通常受到監管或法律訴訟、公眾監督和辯論的影響。在所有情況下，嚴格的科學基礎都會指導主題調查。

具體來說，該期刊是一份國際性的、季度性的、同行評審的出版物，提供探索或與環境污染的來源、年齡、命運、運輸以及人類健康和生態影響相關的科學研究。期刊主題涵蓋了上述空氣、水、土壤、沉積物和生物等環境介質中污染的所有方面。數據評估和分析方法也得到了重點介紹，包括多元統計方法。期刊重點關注以下領域的科學和技術信息、數據和關鍵分析：

-用于來源識別和/或年代測定的污染物指紋識別，包括（但不限于）化學、同位素、手性、礦物學/顯微鏡技術、DNA 和樹木年輪指紋識別

-用于來源識別和/或年代測定的特定評估技術，包括（但不限于）歷史文獻和航空攝影審查、特征化學品、大氣示蹤劑和市場取證、背景濃度評估。

-統計評估、污染物建模和數據可視化

-蒸汽入侵，包括描繪室內空氣污染的來源和背景值

-綜合案例研究，采用環境命運技術

-法律考慮，包括訴訟和仲裁中對環境命運的戰略考慮，以及監管法規和行動

Environmental Forensics創刊于2000年，由Taylor and Francis Ltd.出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋環境科學 - 環境科學全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 36周，或約稿 ，影響因子指數1.5，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
