The journal primarily tackles Ecology, Predation, Habitat, Ecosystem and Botany. Research on Ecology presented in the journal focuses, in particular, on Competition (biology), Herbivore, Species richness, Abundance (ecology) and Ecology (disciplines). Competition (biology) research discussed connects with the study of Interspecific competition.
Species richness research featured in Ecology incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Biodiversity and Species diversity. Ecology features Predation research that overlaps with concepts in Foraging. Research on Ecosystem addressed in Ecology frequently intersections with the field of Biomass (ecology).
The published articles investigate areas of study like Ecology, Predation, Habitat, Ecosystem and Species richness. The most cited publications focus on Ecology research which is adjacent to topics in Botany. The most cited publications facilitate discussions on Species richness that incorporate concepts from other fields like Biodiversity and Species diversity.
Ecology primarily focuses on research topics in Ecology, Ecosystem, Biodiversity, Biomass (ecology) and Range (biology). Ecology focuses on different Ecology studies like Predation, Habitat, Abundance (ecology), Herbivore and Competition (biology). Topics in Abundance (ecology) were tackled in line with various other fields like Species richness and Introduced species.
Niche and Interspecific competition are some topics wherein Competition (biology) research discussed in Ecology have an impact. It explores topics in Ecosystem which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Trophic level, Productivity (ecology) and Abiotic component. The studies in Biomass (ecology) featured incorporate elements of Plant community, Nutrient and Seedling.
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 Ecology (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 Ecology (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 2021 edition, 0.95% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 23.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 15.97% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 17.25% of all publications and 43.77% 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.

(2020)For students interested in Environmental Sciences, exploring related online degrees can broaden career opportunities in health, safety, and community well-being. Programs that integrate environmental knowledge with practical applications are becoming increasingly popular.
For those aiming to accelerate their education, the 5 year accelerated speech pathology programs offer an efficient route to enter this vital healthcare field. These programs combine foundational science with communication therapy, ideal for students passionate about environmental health impacts on speech and hearing.
In the realm of behavioral sciences, BCBA accredited programs provide the credentials necessary for Board Certified Behavior Analysts. This path can complement environmental studies by focusing on behavioral interventions related to environmental health and safety challenges.
Students who want to focus on workplace safety might consider enrolling in the best online ehs programs. These degrees emphasize environmental health and safety, preparing graduates to manage risks and promote sustainable practices in various industries.
Additionally, understanding family and community dynamics is crucial for environmental professionals. Online marriage and family therapy masters programs equip students with skills to support mental health, which is often affected by environmental changes and stresses.
