*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 2007 data it is total number of cites in 2006 to articles published in 2005 and 2004, divided by the total number of articles published in 2005 and 2004.

****The cited half life is the number of publication years from the current JCR year i.e. 2006 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.
