Overview

Top Research Topics at Biodiversitas?

Biodiversitas investigates areas of study like Horticulture, Ecology, Botany, Forestry and Agroforestry. Cultivar is part of Horticulture studies tackled in the journal. The journal covers various topics on Ecology such as Habitat, Abundance (ecology), Biodiversity and Species richness.

The studies on Forestry discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Diversity index, Vegetation and Species diversity.

  • Horticulture (13.68%)
  • Ecology (13.07%)
  • Botany (11.81%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

  • REVIEW: Current Status of Extenders and Cryoprotectants onFish Spermatozoa Cryopreservation (44 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Biodiversitas:

The main points discussed in the most cited articles deal with Agroforestry, Botany, Ecology, Fishery and Horticulture. The works on Agroforestry tackled in the published papers bring together disciplines like National park, Indigenous, Medicinal plants and Species diversity. While work presented in the most cited papers provide substantial information on Botany, it also covers topics in Flavobacterium, Azotobacter and Rhizobium.

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genus

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Horticulture, Ecology, Forestry, Food science and Bacteria are the subjects of interest in the journal. The journal features Horticulture research that overlaps with concepts in Genotype. Topics like Habitat, Abundance (ecology) and Biodiversity are tackled as part of the discussions on Ecology.

While it focused on Forestry, it was also able to explore topics like Diversity index, Species richness, Vegetation, Species diversity and Mangrove. Food science research is concerned with Fermentation in particular. 16S ribosomal RNA is a focus of the presented Bacteria works and it dives deep in 16S ribosomal RNA.

  • A case study of agroforestry practices and challenges in Mt. Merapi risk and hazard prone area of Indonesia (2 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 overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.

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, 11.42% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 56.93% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 11.92% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.82% of all publications and 15.33% 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.
