About Nature Climate Change
Journal Overview
Nature Climate Change is one of the world's most prestigious and influential scientific journals devoted to the study of Earth's changing climate. Published monthly by Nature Portfolio, the publishing arm of Springer Nature, the journal brings together the most significant and cutting-edge research on the nature, underlying causes and impacts of global climate change, together with its implications for the economy, public policy and the wider world.
The journal occupies a distinctive position in the scholarly publishing landscape. Rather than focusing on a single scientific discipline, it deliberately spans the natural, physical, life and social sciences, treating climate change as the profoundly interdisciplinary challenge that it is. In a single issue, readers may find physical climate modelling sitting alongside ecological research, climate economics, public-health studies, political science and psychology. This cross-disciplinary synthesis is central to the journal's identity: it exists not only to publish excellent science but to encourage collaboration across fields, which the journal's editors describe as pivotal to progress in tackling the grand challenges of climate change.
Nature Climate Change launched in 2011 and is published both in print and online. It is one of the family of thematic Nature Research journals — specialist journals that carry the Nature brand into focused research fields, each run by a dedicated team of full-time professional editors. The journal's broad readership reflects its mission: researchers, practitioners and policy-makers all turn to it for authoritative, peer-reviewed findings on topics as diverse as ice-sheet dynamics, soil microbes, climate adaptation, climate justice and the economic costs of a warming planet.
The journal's standing is reflected in its bibliometric profile. On its official journal metrics page, Nature Portfolio reports a 2-year Journal Impact Factor of 26.9 for 2025, a 5-year Journal Impact Factor of 35.6, an Article Influence Score of 12.000 and an SJR of 7.978 — figures that place it among the very top titles in environmental science and social science publishing.
History of Nature Climate Change
The story of Nature Climate Change begins not in 2011 but a few years earlier, with a predecessor publication called Nature Reports Climate Change, established in 2007. Nature Reports Climate Change was conceived as an online and print magazine-style publication that would cover climate science news, features, opinion and analysis for a broad audience of researchers and interested readers. Its first editor-in-chief was Olive Heffernan, a science journalist and editor who shaped the publication's voice during its formative years.
By the end of the decade, the volume and importance of primary climate research demanded a full research journal. In April 2011, Nature Reports Climate Change was relaunched and reconstituted as Nature Climate Change — a monthly, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to publishing original research at the highest level, alongside review, opinion and news content. The transformation mirrored a broader strategy by Nature Publishing Group to extend the Nature brand into dedicated disciplinary journals run by professional in-house editors.
Since its launch, the journal has grown steadily in both stature and scope. Bronwyn Wake joined the editorial team in 2012 and became Chief Editor in May 2016, providing continuity of leadership over more than a decade of the journal's life. Under her editorship, the journal has expanded its coverage across the social sciences — publishing influential work on climate communication, climate psychology, adaptation behaviour and environmental health — while maintaining its core strength in physical climate science.
The journal's editorial office has itself become international: the team now spans offices in London, Berlin, Shanghai and Beijing, reflecting both the global nature of climate research and the journal's large and growing authorship in China and the Asia-Pacific region. In November 2025 the journal welcomed editors from a cross-journal editorial team, including coverage of the terrestrial environment and biogeochemistry, a sign of the journal's continued expansion into new research fronts.
Over its first fifteen years, Nature Climate Change has become a venue where landmark studies are published and debated — from analyses of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation's stability, to global estimates of heat-related labour losses, to frameworks linking IPCC climate impact-drivers with key climate risks for adaptation planning. The October 2026 issue, for example, featured research on oceanic circulation collapse, dryland vegetation dynamics, the economic cost of heat and flash energy droughts affecting solar and wind resources — a snapshot of the journal's remarkable topical range.
Leadership and Editorial Team
Nature Climate Change, like all Nature-branded journals, has no external editorial board. Instead, all editorial decisions are made by a dedicated team of professional, full-time editors employed by Springer Nature, each with relevant research and editorial backgrounds. This is the defining feature of the Nature editorial model: manuscripts are assessed and handled not by part-time academic editors but by career editors who work exclusively for the journal.
The Chief Editor is Dr Bronwyn Wake, who joined Nature Climate Change in 2012. She holds a PhD in trace element biogeochemistry from the University of Tasmania, Australia, with first-class Honours in Antarctic Studies, and carried out postdoctoral research at the University of Southampton in the UK and the European Institute for Marine Studies in Brest, France, focusing on trace metal cycling in marine waters and their roles as micronutrients for phytoplankton. Before becoming Chief Editor in May 2016, she spent a period in the journal's Sydney office, returning to London to lead the title. Her own editorial remit has covered research manuscripts and review and opinion articles across physical climate science, the marine and aquatic environment, and interdisciplinary work integrating natural and social sciences in the context of climate and global environmental change. She is based in the London office.
Supporting the Chief Editor is a team of Senior Editors, each responsible for particular subject areas. The current senior team includes Alyssa Findlay, who joined in mid-2019 and handles manuscripts in climate change impacts, vulnerability and adaptation; she holds a PhD in Oceanography from the University of Delaware and completed postdoctoral work in Israel and Denmark. Tegan Armarego-Marriott, who joined at the end of 2019, handles ecological and biological responses to climate change, including ecosystem services and health, and holds a PhD from the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology. Danyang Cheng, based in Shanghai, joined in July 2023 and handles social sciences and environmental health, including climate psychology, climate communication and adaptive behaviour; she holds a PhD from Tsinghua University. Jasper Franke, based in Heidelberg, handles physical climatology — atmospheric sciences, hydrology, the cryosphere — and holds a PhD from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and Humboldt University of Berlin. Lingxiao Yan, based in Shanghai, handles policy and socio-economic dimensions of climate change and holds a PhD in Marine Policy from the University of Delaware.
The journal also employs Associate Editors, including Wenhui Cui, who joined in January 2026 and handles the urban environment, infrastructure, energy and mitigation from the Shanghai office, and Shuai Yang, who joined the cross-journal editorial team in November 2025 and handles the terrestrial environment and biogeochemistry from Beijing. Editorial Assistants, including Molly Tottman in London and Xue Lin in China, support the manuscript workflow.
Above the journal level, editorial management includes an Editorial Director (Nicky Dean), the Vice President of the Nature Research Journals Portfolio (Erika Pastrana), the Executive Vice President of Nature Portfolio (Deborah Sweet), and the Editor-in-Chief of the Nature journals (Magdalena Skipper).
Aims & Scope
The journal's official aims statement frames its mission in terms of societal importance: understanding Earth's changing climate and its consequences is a scientific challenge of enormous importance to society, and Nature Climate Change exists as a monthly venue for the most significant and cutting-edge research on the nature, causes and impacts of global climate change and its implications for the economy, policy and the world at large.
The journal publishes original research across the natural and social sciences and makes a deliberate effort to synthesize interdisciplinary research. Its editorial commitments include publishing top-tier original research through a fair and rigorous review process, reaching a broad readership, maintaining high standards of copy editing and production, publishing rapidly, and remaining independent of academic societies and others with vested interests.
Beyond original research, the journal serves as a forum for discussion among leading experts through opinion, analysis and review articles. It highlights important developments in the field through Research Highlights and publishes original reporting from established science journalists in the form of feature articles.
The scope of topics covered is unusually broad, reflecting the journal's interdisciplinary character. The official topic list includes adaptation, anthropology, atmospheric science, biochemistry, communication, cryospheric science, ecology, economics, energy, ethics, geography, health, hydrology, impacts and vulnerability, mitigation, modelling, oceanography, philosophy, policy and governance, political science, psychology, sociology, and sustainability and development.
One important scope note concerns palaeoclimate research. The journal explicitly states that while it appreciates the importance of palaeoclimate work in its own right, it can only consider palaeoclimate studies that shed significant new light on the nature, causes or impacts of present-day climate change.
Editorial Process and Peer Review
Nature Climate Change operates the standard Nature-model peer review process: manuscripts are first assessed by the in-house professional editors, who decide whether a submission meets the journal's criteria for significance, novelty and breadth of interest. Only those manuscripts judged potentially suitable are sent out for formal peer review by external experts; the editors then weigh the reviewers' reports and make the final decision. Because there is no external editorial board, these decisions rest entirely with the full-time editorial team.
The journal's editors emphasise that the screening process is underpinned by the journal's mission: to continually advance climate-change research, challenge the views of its readers and effect real change by paving the way for collaboration across its broad readership of researchers, practitioners and policy-makers.
The journal publishes official, audited speed metrics on its journal-metrics page. For 2025, the median time from submission to first editorial decision was 6 days, and the median time from submission to acceptance was 175 days. These are journal-reported figures displayed on the official metrics page.
What the journal does not publish is an official acceptance rate. Nature Portfolio does not disclose acceptance rates for Nature Climate Change on its public pages, so no verified acceptance-rate figure can be given here. Manuscripts must be submitted through the journal's online submission system; the editors state explicitly that they consider full submissions only, and that manuscripts or presubmission enquiries sent by email are not considered.
Impact and Metrics
The following metrics are published on the journal's official journal-metrics page (nature.com/nclimate), as displayed at the time of writing. All citation metrics below refer to metric year 2025, as shown on that page:
| Metric | Value (2025) |
|---|---|
| Journal Impact Factor (2-year) | 26.9 |
| 5-year Journal Impact Factor | 35.6 |
| Immediacy Index | 5.8 |
| Eigenfactor® Score | 0.06281 |
| Article Influence Score | 12.000 |
| Source Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP) | 5.949 |
| SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) | 7.978 |
| Submission to first editorial decision (median) | 6 days |
| Submission to acceptance (median) | 175 days |
| Downloads (2025) | 5,158,831 |
| Altmetric mentions (2025) | 34,844 |
A note on interpretation: Springer Nature is a signatory of the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA), and its metrics page explicitly cautions that citation measures such as the 2-year Journal Impact Factor can be disproportionately influenced by small numbers of highly cited articles, and are not necessarily measures of journal quality. The journal therefore presents the full range of metrics — including usage and attention metrics — so that authors and readers can evaluate journals on multiple dimensions.
Historically, the journal's impact factor has climbed steadily since its launch: from 14.472 in 2012 to 30.7 in 2022 (Journal Citation Reports), before settling at 26.9 for 2025. The 2023 impact factor was 30.3 according to the Journal Citation Reports, and the 2024 figure stood at 27.1. The journal is consistently ranked in the first quartile (Q1) of its categories, including Environmental Sciences and Environmental Studies.
Individual articles in the journal carry their own article-level metrics: download counts, citation counts and online-attention scores are displayed on each article page, giving authors and readers a picture of the attention each paper receives beyond journal-level averages.
Submission Guidelines
Manuscripts must be submitted through the journal's online submission system. The editorial office states that it considers full submissions only — manuscripts or presubmission enquiries sent by email (to nclimate@nature.com) will not be considered, and all enquiries about potential content should go through the online system.
The journal publishes several article types, visible in its browse pages: Articles (original research), Research Briefings, News & Views (commentary on newly published research), Comments, Policy Briefs, Reviews and feature articles reporting by science journalists. The official aims page additionally notes that the journal commissions original research, reviews, perspectives and opinion pieces, and publishes an average of 10–12 original research articles per issue. Non-primary research articles — such as Reviews, Comments and News & Views — should not contain original, previously unpublished research findings and may include only minimal new supporting data.
Authors preparing manuscripts should follow the formatting and editorial policies set out in the journal's guide to authors and the general Nature Portfolio editorial policies, which cover authorship, competing interests, data availability, image integrity, plagiarism, and reporting standards. Springer Nature's editorial policies apply across all Nature Research journals.
The editorial office is located at The Campus, 4 Crinan Street, London N1 9XW, UK. General editorial enquiries can be directed to nclimate@nature.com, and the journal maintains a social media presence at @NatureClimate.
Open Access and APC
Nature Climate Change is a hybrid journal: it operates both a traditional subscription publishing route and a gold open access route. According to the journal's official publishing-models page, authors submitting primary research articles may choose to publish either through the subscription route or gold open access. Non-primary research articles — Reviews, Comments, News & Views and similar content — are not eligible for gold open access and are published via the subscription route only.
Under the gold open access model, the article is made freely available online at publication, and the publication costs are covered by an Article Processing Charge (APC), typically paid by the authors' institutions or funding bodies upon acceptance. The journal notes that authors whose funders require immediate open access — for example under Plan S principles or the NIH public access policy — should select the gold OA route, since the subscription model's embargo terms may not satisfy such mandates.
APC figure: the journal's official publishing-models page confirms the hybrid model described above but does not display a standalone APC amount on that page, and the dedicated APC page did not load during this research (accessed 2026-10-11). Springer Nature therefore had not published a verifiable, journal-specific APC figure for Nature Climate Change in the pages accessible at the time of writing. Authors should check the journal's current APC/open-access page on nature.com for the latest charges before submitting, as APCs are subject to change and to VAT or local taxes.
Springer Nature also operates open access agreements with institutions that can cover APC costs, and offers APC waivers and discounts — including for corresponding authors based in the world's lowest-income countries — with discretionary waivers considered on a case-by-case basis at the point of submission.
Indexing and Visibility
Nature Climate Change is indexed in the major scholarly databases. Its presence in the Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate) confirms coverage in the Web of Science citation indexes — the journal is listed in the JCR categories Environmental Sciences and Environmental Studies — and it is indexed in Scopus, from which its CiteScore, SJR and SNIP metrics are derived. The journal carries the standard identifiers ISSN 1758-678X (print) and 1758-6798 (online), the ISO 4 abbreviation Nat. Clim. Change, and the CODEN NCCACZ.
Visibility is further supported by the Nature Portfolio platform itself: articles are published online with digital object identifiers (DOIs in the 10.1038/s41558 series), are discoverable through nature.com search and alerting services, and receive broad media and policy attention — the journal recorded 34,844 Altmetric mentions in 2025 alone. The journal also publishes Research Highlights and commissioned journalism that extend the reach of the field's most important developments beyond the specialist readership.

Climate change is one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. Driven largely by human activities such as deforestation, industrialization, and the burning of fossil fuels, climate change is dramatically altering the natural balance of our planet. The connection between nature and climate change is deep and complex—understanding it is crucial for creating sustainable solutions for our future.
How Climate Change Affects Nature
Rising global temperatures, shifting precipitation patterns, and more frequent extreme weather events are disrupting ecosystems across the world. Forests, oceans, wetlands, and grasslands are all under threat. Species are being forced to adapt, migrate, or face extinction. According to experts, over one million plant and animal species are at risk due to climate change and habitat loss.
Coral reefs, often referred to as the “rainforests of the sea,” are experiencing mass bleaching due to warmer ocean temperatures. In polar regions, melting ice caps and glaciers are destroying habitats for species like polar bears and penguins. Even terrestrial ecosystems are feeling the strain, as shifting temperatures affect the blooming of plants, the migration of birds, and the behavior of insects.
The Role of Nature in Combating Climate Change
Ironically, while nature is heavily impacted by climate change, it also holds the key to mitigating its effects. Forests absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, acting as vital carbon sinks. Wetlands store large amounts of carbon in their soil. Oceans play a crucial role in regulating the Earth's climate by absorbing heat and carbon dioxide.
By protecting and restoring natural ecosystems, we can create climate-resilient landscapes that help buffer communities from the effects of climate change. Nature-based solutions—such as reforestation, sustainable agriculture, and wetland restoration—can provide cost-effective and long-lasting benefits for both people and the planet.
Why Biodiversity Matters
Biodiversity ensures ecosystem resilience, which is essential for food security, clean water, and disease regulation. When we lose biodiversity due to climate change, we also lose nature's ability to adapt and recover. Every species plays a role in maintaining ecological balance. A decline in pollinators, for example, directly impacts agricultural productivity and food availability.
Taking Action for a Sustainable Future
Individuals, communities, governments, and businesses all have a role to play in protecting nature from the impacts of climate change. Simple actions like reducing energy use, supporting conservation efforts, planting trees, and choosing sustainable products can make a difference.
On a larger scale, policies that prioritize clean energy, conservation, and sustainable land use are essential. International cooperation and global agreements, like the Paris Climate Accord, are key to creating systemic change.
