The main points discussed in the journal deals with Hydrology, Environmental resource management, Water resource management, Water resources and Environmental planning. Hydrology, which encompasses Drainage basin, Watershed, Surface runoff, Water quality and Flood myth, is the main subject of the journal. The study on Drainage basin presented is investigated in conjunction with research in Structural basin.
Topics in Surface runoff explored in Canadian Water Resources Journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Streamflow and Precipitation. The work tackled in it goes beyond the discipline of Precipitation as it also encompasses Climate change. In addition to Flood myth research, the journal aims to explore topics under Floodplain and Flooding (psychology).
While Environmental resource management is the focus of Canadian Water Resources Journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Government, Resource (biology) and Integrated water resources management. Issues in Water resource management were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Water use, Water conservation, Irrigation and Water supply. The journal focuses on Environmental planning as well as the interrelated topic of Environmental protection.
The journal papers explore disciplines such as Hydrology, Climatology, Streamflow, Drainage basin and Climate change. Hydrology study tackled in the most cited papers is connected to the field of Structural basin. The works on Climate change tackled in the journal papers bring together disciplines like Flood myth and Physical geography.
Canadian Water Resources Journal investigates areas of study like Surface runoff, Precipitation, Drainage basin, Environmental engineering and Water resources. It encompasses Surface runoff studies in the context of Hydrology as a whole. The Precipitation works featured in it incorporate elements from Climatology, Natural disaster, Identification (information), Flood frequency analysis and Early winter.
The research on Drainage basin featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Irrigation district, Irrigation and Water resource management. Extraction (military) and Sustainable water management are some topics wherein Environmental engineering research discussed in Canadian Water Resources Journal have an impact. The research on Water resources tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Sustainability, Resource (biology), Hydrology (agriculture) and Scale (map).
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 Canadian Water Resources Journal (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Canadian Water Resources Journal (based on the number of publications) are:
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.
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 2020 edition, 11.11% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 87.50% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.50% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 0.00% were from other institutions.
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.
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.
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:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)For those interested in pursuing a career in environmental sciences, several related online degrees offer diverse opportunities. Programs like the online environmental engineering degree focus on applying engineering principles to solve environmental challenges, preparing students for roles in pollution control, sustainable design, and resource management.
In addition to environmental engineering, fields such as environmental health and safety are essential for maintaining workplace and public safety standards. The online environmental health and safety degree equips graduates with the knowledge to assess risks and implement safety protocols in various industries.
Interestingly, interdisciplinary pathways like speech pathology can also complement environmental sciences, especially in community health settings. Programs like the 5-year accelerated speech pathology programs offer streamlined education paths for those aiming to make an impact in communication disorders linked to environmental factors.
For individuals interested in behavioral analysis related to environmental and social settings, bcaba accredited programs provide robust training and certification that can lead to specialized careers supporting behavioral health in various populations.
