Early-warning magazines are some SCI journals that publish a large number of articles, and the fees are extremely high. Basically, they can be distributed with money. These journals are predatory journals with low academic value and may be eliminated by SCI. Therefore, it is called international journal early warning to give some warnings to such journals.

Early-warning periodicals often have quality problems. This kind of periodical is very dangerous. If the articles you are investing in are accepted at this time, it means that your articles may be downgraded with the periodical's demotion (falling out of the SCI list), which will affect your graduation (it is no problem for normal periodicals not to drop out of SCI without early warning), so early-warning periodicals must pay attention.

Significance of the list of early warning journals:

For most scientific researchers, they will consider how their units will treat the journals on the list of early warning journals, mainly including the reimbursement of page fees, whether they are included in performance considerations, and whether they can be used as representative works of follow-up funds and projects.

The establishment of an early warning system for academic journals actually supports relevant institutions to publish early warning lists of domestic and international academic journals, and implement dynamic tracking and timely adjustment. Blacklist academic journals that ignore academic quality, management confusion, and commercial interests first, causing adverse effects.
