PRO-SCIENCE
These sources consist of legitimate science or are evidence-based through credible scientific sourcing. Legitimate science follows the scientific method, is unbiased, and does not use emotional words. These sources also respect the consensus of experts in the given scientific field and strive to publish peer-reviewed science. Some sources in this category may have a slight political bias but adhere to scientific principles. See all Pro-Science sources.
- Overall, we rate Fluid Mechanics Journal as a Pro-Science publisher of review journals. We also rate them High for factual reporting due to peer review and a clean fact check record.

Analysis / Bias
Fluid Mechanics Journal is a review journal that publishes information on fluid mechanics. The journal primarily publishes research such as this: Flow Mechanics in Ablative Thermal Protection Systems.
Annual Reviews is an open-access/hybrid publisher of scientific journals. There are two types of Open Access Journals, legitimate and predatory, both of which charge the author for publication. Predatory journals often lack peer review and are generally considered not credible. Annual Reviews is considered a legitimate, open-access publisher as they do not charge authors and rely on the s2o method for funding.
