\nAbstract<\/span>: Within the framework of the University of Havana Environment Network (Red MA-UH, according to its abbreviation in Spanish), many pieces of research into the environment are carried out, but most of them are never implemented or applied to the environmental management due to their poor visibility and a lack of efficient strategic alliances. Today, the results of many of these pieces of research just become either grey literatures or Cuban poorly visible publications, and therefore they can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be used for solving environmental problems affecting society. These researches could be used as aids to solving socio-environmental problems if decision-makers and international organizations were made aware of their results and they provided funding to put these into practice. Research results are to be increasingly spread on an international scale, so their visibility can be enhanced and funding and scientific collaboration can be gotten easier, which allows the University of Havana Environment Network\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s researches to have the desired social effects. The present work is aimed at examining high-impact publications included in the Scimago Journal & Country Rank (SJCR) portal, specifically within the field of environmental science. A total of 913 records were unloaded, taking only the year 2013 for the analysis because this was the last year included in the portal at that time. Having taking only a year made the unloading easier. Metrical indicators of information were used in order to show the University of Havana Environment Network how to make its research results more visible, which contributes, by identifying international high-impact publications in the environmental science domain, to an enhanced visibility of the pieces of research into the environment carried out at the University of Havana, which contributes, in turn, to their implementation in processes of environmental management, rational use and equitable distribution of resources, and to the promotion of local development by means of environmental management strategies guaranteeing a harmonious relationship between society and nature.<\/p>\n
