Yes — actively indexed in Scopus, coverage 2019–present, best quartile Q4, CiteScore 0.9.
Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology is Q4 in Earth-Surface Processes (rank 139 of 184), Q4 in Geology (rank 269 of 333) and Q4 in Geotechnical Engineering and Engineering Geology (rank 201 of 244), by CiteScore 2025. It is ranked in 4 subject areas in all.
Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology is not in the Web of Science Core Collection (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI or ESCI), so Clarivate publishes no Journal Impact Factor for it. Its Scopus CiteScore is 0.9, quartile Q4, 24th percentile. Any "impact factor" quoted elsewhere is not the Clarivate metric. Its SCImago Journal Rank (SJR, a free Scopus-based metric) is 0.247, quartile Q3, with an H-index of 4.
Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology is published by Geological Institute “Strashimir Dimitrov”, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Its print ISSN is 0204-7934 and its online ISSN is 2738-6996.
No — it is not currently in the Web of Science core collections (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI or ESCI).
No — it is not registered as an open-access journal in DOAJ or Scopus.

Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology published 14 papers in 2025; its busiest recent year was 2023 with 15. 2026* is the year so far.
h-index, i10-index and 2-year mean citedness are open, licence-clear metrics from OpenAlex — not a proprietary impact factor. The subject rank counts only journals that OpenAlex has a figure for; it is not a Scopus or Clarivate ranking. Updated 2026-10-14.
In its latest 51 research articles (2021–2026), authors are most often from Bulgaria (83%), India (5.9%) and Russia (2.9%). More than half of recent authorship comes from one country.
Countries are counted fractionally, so a paper by authors from two countries counts half to each.
Scopus status: Active. No retracted papers are recorded. The Problematic Paper Screener flags none of its papers. These are indicators to check, not findings against the journal.
Retractions from OpenAlex; flags from the Problematic Paper Screener (Cabanac, Labbé & Magazinov, CC BY), 2026-09-21 export. A flag marks a paper for a closer look; it is not a finding against the journal.
Index data is curated from public sources (Scopus, Web of Science, ABDC, FT50, UT Dallas, DOAJ). CiteScore and quartiles reflect the latest available Scopus release. Always verify a journal's current status on its official source before submitting.
