Abstract

In this study, journal selection processes of the Science Citation Index (SCI) and the SCOPUS are investigated aiming at making the Journal of the Korean Meteorological Society (JKMS) an SCI journal. In addition, some characteristic features of the SCI journals in the field of atmospheric sciences published in Asian countries are examined. Some domestic journals in the related disciplines that are recently listed in the SCI and SCOPUS are also analyzed in terms of strategic approaches. Results of this study may provide fundamental strategic information in pursuing the JKMS to be listed in the SCI in the near future.
