In Washington & Lee School of Law's 2020 combined score rankings of Environmental and Land Use Law journals, Ecology Law Quarterly ranked 3rd overall.[3]

Ecology Law Quarterly articles have been cited by various courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court,[4] U.S. Courts of Appeal,[5] and U.S. District Courts.[6] Ecology Law Quarterly received the highest number of case citations of any environmental law journal in 2015, 2016, and 2017.[3]
