IEEE Submission and Peer Review PoliciesIEEE Clarifies Guidelines on the Responsible Use of AI in Scholarly Publishinghttps://journals.ieeeauthorcenter.ieee.org/become-an-ieee-journal-author/publishing-ethics/guidelines-and-policies/submission-and-peer-review-policies/#ai-generated-contentIEEE has reaffirmed its commitment to research integrity and transparency by issuing clear guidelines on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the preparation and submission of scholarly manuscripts. These policies ensure that innovation in AI-assisted research and writing is balanced with ethical responsibility and the preservation of trust in the peer-review process.Under IEEE’s submission and peer-review policies, authors are permitted to use AI-generated content—including text, figures, images, and code—provided that such use is explicitly and transparently disclosed. Authors must identify the AI tools used, specify the sections of the manuscript affected, and describe the nature of the AI contribution in the Acknowledgments section. Importantly, AI systems cannot be listed as authors, and full accountability for the accuracy, originality, and integrity of the work remains solely with the human authors.IEEE emphasizes that AI tools may assist researchers, but they do not replace scholarly judgment or ethical responsibility. Authors are expected to carefully review all AI-generated material to ensure correctness, proper attribution, and compliance with publication standards. The undisclosed or misleading use of AI-generated content may be treated as a breach of publishing ethics.In parallel, IEEE maintains strict confidentiality standards in the peer-review process. Reviewers are prohibited from using public AI tools to analyze submitted manuscripts, as doing so could compromise confidential content. Through these policies, IEEE aims to support responsible innovation while safeguarding the credibility, transparency, and integrity of the global scholarly record.Guidelines for Artificial Intelligence (AI)-Generated TextUse by Authors“ The use of content generated by artificial intelligence (AI) in an article (including but not limited to text, figures, images, and code) shall be disclosed in the acknowledgments section of any article submitted to an IEEE publication. The AI system used shall be identified, and specific sections of the article that use AI-generated content shall be identified and accompanied by a brief explanation regarding the level at which the AI system was used to generate the content.The use of AI systems for editing and grammar enhancement is common practice and, as such, is generally outside the intent of the above policy. In this case, disclosure as noted above is not required, but recommended. "

Top 1% Journal 2025https://www.scopus.com/pages/ai?temporary-convo=false&conversationId=075ba998-a2ff-4f34-b1cf-21ed22d49c70To identify the top 1% journals in 2025, we can look at various metrics and rankings that are commonly used to evaluate journal quality and impact. These include the Impact Factor (IF), SCImago Journal Rank (SJR), and other bibliometric indicators.Key Metrics and RankingsImpact Factor (IF)The Impact Factor is a measure reflecting the yearly average number of citations to recent articles published in a journal. For example, in the field of 'Nutrition and Dietetics', journals with an IF ≥ 6.0 were analyzed, showing significant citation counts and impact 1.SCImago Journal Rank (SJR)SJR ranks journals into four quartiles (Q1–Q4) based on their impact and quality. Journals in the top quartile (Q1) are considered to be of the highest quality. For instance, the SCImago Journal Rank database is used to evaluate journal prestige in various fields, such as environmental engineering and orthopedics 2 3 4.Journal Article Influence Index (JAII)The JAII is another metric used to evaluate the influence of academic journals. For example, the 2022 JAII was used to rank core journals in orthopedics and gastroenterology, highlighting the highest and lowest influence scores 5 6.Examples of High-Impact JournalsPreventing Chronic Disease (PCD)PCD saw a significant increase in its impact factor, reaching 4.354, and was ranked in the top 10% of more than 27,000 journals evaluated by Scimago in 2021 7.Top Intensive Care JournalsA bibliometric analysis of the top 10 intensive care journals with the highest 2022 Impact Factors showed a strong representation of high-impact research from high-income countries 8.Critical Care Nursing JournalsThe top critical care nursing journals, such as Intensive and Critical Care Nursing (ICCN) and Nursing in Critical Care (NICC), were analyzed for their top-cited papers, indicating significant contributions to the field 9.Trends and ObservationsGeographic and Publisher InfluenceWestern countries and private publishers dominate the top-tier journals in many fields. For example, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Netherlands house a significant proportion of top journals in environmental engineering 3.Gender DisparitiesDespite improvements, gender disparities in authorship persist in top medical research journals, with women underrepresented as first and senior authors 10.Open Access vs. Subscription ModelsOpen access articles tend to receive more citations compared to subscription-based articles, as seen in critical care nursing journals 9.ConclusionTo be considered in the top 1% of journals in 2025, a journal would likely need to have a high Impact Factor, be ranked in the top quartile (Q1) by SCImago, and demonstrate significant influence through metrics like the JAII. Journals such as PCD, top intensive care journals, and critical care nursing journals exemplify the characteristics of high-impact publications. Additionally, trends such as geographic dominance, gender disparities, and the impact of open access publishing are important factors influencing journal rankings and impact.

Natural Hazards ResearchVolume 4, Issue 1, March 2024, Pages 87-96AbstractUnderstanding the spatiotemporal distribution of forest fires and future predictions is very important for management strategies. To identify the present status of forest fires in the Kingdom of Thailand and their risk in the future, ten-year forest fire data were used, and a forest fire hotspot was prepared. A geospatial technique was used in the study to characterize the parameters of forest fires in the country and identify future forest fire risk areas. Most of the forest fires in the country were found to be seasonal. Deciduous forests in higher elevations and on moderate slopes were most vulnerable to forest fire. The level of aridity, soil moisture, temperature, precipitation, vegetation status, and topography influenced the spatiotemporal distribution of forest fires in the country. Greater than 50% of fire risks were observed in 22 administrative divisions, and 17 of the 209 protected areas are also in the high-risk category. The final forest fire hotspot map can be used in policy development and successful management strategies. A better monitoring strategy should be used in the fire hotspot areas as a precautionary measure to minimize the anthropogenic causes of forest fires.Read more at https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666592123000847
