*This list is currently being compiled. If you can suggest any modifications that are necessary, or have any other journals that you wish to add to the list, please contact the network leadership.

** The impact factor and half life have been downloaded from the latest ISI data (Web of Science) available for these journals. These can change on a year-year basis.

The impact factor is calculated as follows. For the latest 2010 data it is total number of cites in 2009 to articles published in 2008 and 2007, divided by the total number of articles published in 2008 and 2007.

The cited half life is defined as the number of publication years from the current JCR year i.e. 2009 that account for 50% of citations received by the journal. This is an important integer as it indicates the long term influence that a journal may have on the subject area over a period of time.
