Study reveals trends in AGU journal article titles
Summary: A study analyzing AGU journal article titles from 1896 to 2023 reveals trends in geophysical research language. The most common scientific term was "magnetic" in the early years, while "wave" dominated from 1950 to 1989. From 1990 to 2023, "ocean," "climate," and "temperature" gained prominence, reflecting increased focus on climate issues. The analysis covered 6,397 titles across five publication intervals.
This is article metrics. Combined, they form a significance score, that indicates how important the news is on a scale from 0 to 10.
