Open Access Forestry Journals
A list of Open Access Forestry journals for you to publish your manuscript in
Forestry is science and craft of creating, managing, using, conserving and repairing forests, woodlands, and associated resources for human and environmental benefits
A journal article is 'open access' when there are no financial, legal or technical barriers to accessing it - that is to say when anyone can read, download, distribute, print, and search it.
Our team made this list of Forestry Open Access journals with the aim to help you to decide where to publish your Forestry manuscript.
We made this list which includes all the high-impact factor Forestry journals that might be relevant to your field of study.Rather than displaying just the most relevant Forestry journals, we have made an in-depth list of all the open accesss Forestry journals. Use our different columns — number of papers, number of citations, and relevance — to find the best Forestry venue for your manuscript.
The DOAJ columns refers to the The Directory of Open Access Journals, a list of open access journals, maintained by Infrastructure Services for Open Access.
There are certain criteria a journal must meet to be indexed by DOAJ, and thus inclusion in the DOAJ index is seen by scholars as a mark of quality.
All the open access Forestry journals in this list are indexed in OA.mg.

Relevance is used to quantify the level of association between a journal and the concept it is listed under, from 0-100. For example, “Brain Stimulation” has a relevance of “24” when listed under “Open Access Computer Science Journals” because it is somewhat related to the field of Computer Science.
How do you count total number of citations?
The citations show how often articles from a journal have been referenced in other works. We get this data from OpenAlex.
Where can I find other lists like this one?
If you are looking for an author or paper, you can simply type it in the search box above to see your results. If you'd like to see a similar list to this one, check OA.mg
How can I publish my paper on OA.mg?
Our focus at OA.mg is to disseminate existing open access research papers. For this reason, we do not offer publishing services.
What is an APC?
Authors usually have to pay a one-time Article Processing Charge (APC) to cover the costs of peer review, publishing, and dissemination of published papers in a given journal.
What are the different Open Access types?
