The international journal Tropical Cyclone Research and Review (TCRR) has reached a new milestone in academic publishing. According to the latest 2024 Journal Citation Reports™ released by Clarivate, the journal's Impact Factor has climbed to 4.1. In a parallel achievement, its CiteScore, an academic metric provided by Scopus, has risen to 4.8.

2024 Journal Citation Reports^TM (Clarivate Analytics, 2025)

The Journal Impact Factor and CiteScore are key indicators of a journal's influence and quality. This significant rise in both metrics marks another major success for TCRR, reflecting its growing international prestige and the high quality of its published research.

Published since 2012, TCRR is jointly sponsored by the ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee, the Shanghai Typhoon Institute of the China Meteorological Administration, and the Asia-Pacific Typhoon Collaborative Research Center (AP-TCRC).

The journal is dedicated to publishing high-impact research on tropical cyclones. Guided by its distinguished international editorial board, TCRR upholds rigorous peer-review standards to ensure the quality and originality of its articles. By consistently optimizing its publication process, TCRR is solidifying its role as a key platform for advancing tropical cyclone research worldwide.
