In 2018, Nature Portfolio launched Nature Sustainability as a monthly peer-reviewed journal. It gave sustainability research a dedicated venue within the scientific literature. How the journal built its standing in the years that followed is a question with a precise numerical answer.
Monica Contestabile serves as editor-in-chief of Nature Sustainability, leading a publication listed in three major indexing services. The Science Citation Index Expanded, Scopus, and the Social Sciences Citation Index all cover the journal's output. The Journal Citation Reports recorded an impact factor of 27.1 for Nature Sustainability in 2024. Nature Sustainability continues to publish monthly, and the annual Journal Citation Reports will again measure its impact factor in the years ahead.
