Just a quicky...
"Also worth pointing out that you can get an idea of how good a journal is by looking up it's impact factor, which is a measure of how often articles from it are cited (An impact factor of 1 equates to a journal in which every article gets cited once). Energy Sources has a minuscule impact factor of 0.593, by way of example, Nature has an IF of 27.074, Climate Dynamics has an IF of 3.576. Less good journals take lower quality papers, unsurprisingly. "
Which of course makes them the 'lesser journals' you denied existed some months ago.
See Hellward's post.
