About the Journal

The Italian Journal of Agrometeorology  publishes English written original papers about agrometeorology, that is the science which studies the interactions between meteorological, hydrological factors and the agro-forest ecosystem and with agriculture, including all the related themes: herbaceous and arboreal species ecophysiology, crop phenology, phytopathology, entomology, soil physics and hydrology, micrometeorology, crop modelling, remote-sensing, landscape planning, geo-graphical in-formation system and spatialization techniques, instru-mentation for physical and biological measurements, data validation techni-ques, agroclimatology, animal biometeorology, diffusion of information and support services for farmers.

Call for Papers | Agrometeorology for sustainable water management in agroecosystems

2023-02-01

Climate and weather variables are major drivers of agroecosystem production. On one hand, current and future climate change is causing an increased evapotranspirative demand from the atmosphere, but on the other hand it is also affecting the availability of water for crops. As a result, ensuring water availability for the agricultural sector is a pressing issue and it is necessary to rethink irrigation management in order to improve water use efficiency and maintain or increase crop productivity.

The Italian Journal of Agrometeorology (IJAm - Rivista Italiana di Agrometeorologia)

The Italian Journal of Agrometeorology (IJAm - Rivista Italiana di Agrometeorologia) is the official periodical of the Italian Association of Agrometeorology (AIAM) and aims to publish original scientific contributions, rather in English, but also in Italian, on agrometerology, as a science that studies the interactions of hydrological and meteorological factors with the agricultural and forest ecosystems, and with agriculture in its broadest sense (including livestock and fisheries). 

Among the areas of specific interest of the journal there are:

  • ecophysiology;
  • phenology;
  • plant growth, quality and quantity of production;
  • plant pathology;
  • entomology;
  • welfare conditions of livestocks;
  • soil physics and hydrology;
  • micrometeorology;
  • modeling, simulation and forecasting;
  • remote sensing;
  • territorial planning;
  • geographical information systems and spatialization techniques;
  • instrumentation to measure physical and biological quantities;
  • data validation techniques, agroclimatology;
  • agriculture scientific dissemination;
  • support services for farmers.

Each paper is subjected to critical evaluation and review by Field Editors with specific expertise in the different areas of interest and by the members of the international Editorial Board.

IJAm is Scopus indexed and obtained the recognition in ISI Web of Science.

According to the newly released 2020 Journal Citation Report, the Italian Journal of Agrometeorology has achieved a 2019 Impact Factor of 1,182 up from last year.
