Treat any "impact factor" quoted for this journal elsewhere as unofficial.

Scopus coverage history
Scopus indexed Open Environmental Sciences for 4 years, between 2010 and 2014, with 1 year in that span missing. Coverage ended in 2014, 12 years ago, and Scopus now lists the title as inactive.
Is it still publishing? OpenAlex lists 63 works and 762 citations for the title. Its papers appear as late as 2018, 4 years after Scopus coverage ended in 2014. That pattern fits a journal Scopus stopped indexing while it kept publishing, but it can also come from a changed ISSN or merged records. Confirm the journal's current status before submitting.
