While there is significant debate in the scientific and academic community concerning the relevance of impact factors, one is advised to use this information in making one's publishing decisions.
Since the state of knowledge does currently not allow for numerical calculations, we propose a five-part scale to evaluate the relevance of impact pathways and the hazard potential of the fluids involved (Figure 2). Figure 2 Structure of risk analysis for assessment of unconventional gas exploitation.

Therefore, the relevance of further impact types may be underestimated by our study, and future observations and additional laboratory testing will verify the extent of this.
Without suitable numerical quantification, however, the relevance of geological impact pathways can be estimated only with great uncertainties, for example using worst-case approaches.
The risk of contamination of exploitable water resources is thus obtained by multiplying the relevance of the impact pathway(s) and the hazard potential of the pertinent fluids (fracking fluids and formation water).
We propose a concept for a risk assessment considering the site-specific analysis of the geosystem, the relevance of possible impact pathways and the hazard potential of the fracking fluids employed.
Rosenstreitch & Wooliscroft, (Rosenstreich and Wooliscroft 2012) critiqued the use of journal impact factor for marketing related researches but their aversion was in relation to "the time lag before citation of marketing articles" and not the relevance of journal impact factor ranking.
Direct measures of body fat mass and fat-free mass might be preferable endpoints to assess the clinical relevance of the impact of risk factors on the obesity epidemic [32].
This needs to be considered when determining the relevance of these impacts to the context at hand.
However, to assess the biological relevance of fragmentation impacts, we must consider an extra, spatial dimension to the standard statistical model: the biological importance of a significant and well supported model with large effect sizes crucially depends on the configuration of habitat within the study area.
These were not used in this study, as the pilot study confirmed that children were able to understand the relevance of the impacts without needing pictures.
