Overview

Top Research Topics at Aquatic Living Resources?

Aquatic Living Resources investigates areas of study like Fishery, Ecology, Fishing, Animal science and Oceanography. The studies on Fishery discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Tuna and Aquaculture. Tuna research presented is mostly focused on the subject of Thunnus.

Concepts in Aquatic biology, as well as related topics in Fisheries science, are covered in the Aquaculture research presented in it. Many of the studies tackled connect Ecology with a similar field of study like Zoology. The studies in Animal science featured incorporate elements of Fish farming, Dicentrarchus and Anatomy.

The works on Oceanography deal in particular with Bay. Bivalvia research featured in the journal incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Oyster and Crassostrea. In particular, the Oyster works presented emphasize discussions on Pacific oyster.

Research areas of the most cited articles at Aquatic Living Resources:

The journal papers explore disciplines such as Ecology, Fishery, Animal science, Oceanography and Zoology. The most cited articles facilitate discussions on Fishery that incorporate concepts from other fields like Tuna, Pinctada margaritifera and Aquaculture. While work presented in the published papers provide substantial information on Animal science, it also covers topics in Biochemistry, Salmonidae, Sperm, Fish farming and Dicentrarchus.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Gene

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The aim of Aquatic Living Resources is to expand the discussion of research in Fishery, Animal science, Zoology, Fishing and Shrimp. The main emphasis of the journal is the research on Fishery, emphasizing the topic of Fisheries management. While Animal science is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Younger age, Young male, Coregonus lavaretus, Aquaculture and Baltic sea.

The Zoology works featured in Aquatic Living Resources incorporate elements from Microsatellite, Locus (genetics), Genetic diversity and Echo sounding. While the journal focused on Fishing, it was also able to explore topics like Recreation and Socioeconomics. Aquatic Living Resources explores research in Shrimp alongside concepts in Feed conversion ratio and other areas of study in Weight gain, Azadirachta, Cyprinus and Carp.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Socio-economic portrait of Polish anglers: implications for recreational fisheries management in freshwater bodies (1 citations)
  • Towards transdisciplinary decision-support processes in fisheries: experiences and recommendations from a multidisciplinary collective of researchers (1 citations)
  • Can we identify wild-born salmon from parentage assignment data? A case study in the Garonne-Dordogne rivers salmon restoration programme in France (1 citations)

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

The top authors publishing in Aquatic Living Resources (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Marc Legendre (22 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Didier Gascuel (19 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Marc Suquet (16 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Etienne Baras (16 papers) absent at the last edition,

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2021 edition, 21.74% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 16.67% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 5.56% of all publications and 77.78% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Exploring a career in Ecology and Evolution often opens doors to interdisciplinary fields. For those interested in healthcare aspects of environmental impact, pursuing a dnp programs can be a strategic choice. These programs blend advanced nursing expertise with leadership skills, which is valuable in managing public health issues related to ecological changes.

For students seeking less competitive entry points into healthcare careers, exploring less competitive nursing programs provides a practical pathway. These programs can facilitate quicker access into the workforce while maintaining quality education standards.

Another practical route is earning a degree in healthcare administration. This prepares graduates for managing healthcare facilities, many of which are increasingly involved in ecological health initiatives, ensuring sustainability and compliance with environmental regulations.

Additionally, some prospective students prefer options like a nursing school that does not require teas test. These programs offer alternative admissions processes for those aiming to build clinical expertise alongside ecological knowledge.
