The main points discussed in the journal deals with Ecosystem services, Environmental resource management, Ecosystem, Valuation (finance) and Environmental planning. The studies in Ecosystem services featured incorporate elements of Biodiversity, Land use, Natural resource economics, Recreation and Sustainability. The journal centers on topics in Land use, with a focus on Land use, land-use change and forestry.
Ecosystem services explores topics in Environmental resource management which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Ecosystem valuation, Ecosystem health, Corporate governance and Ecosystem management. It covers Ecosystem research under the subject of Ecology. It dives deep in exploring the relationship between the study of Environmental planning and Context (language use).
The published articles are organized to address concerns in the fields of Ecosystem services, Environmental resource management, Valuation (finance), Ecosystem and Land use. The most cited papers feature studies on Ecosystem services, including topics such as Ecosystem valuation. In addition to Environmental resource management research, the most cited papers aim to explore topics under Urban planning, Urban ecosystem, Ecosystem management and Ecosystem health.
The journal primarily focuses on research topics in Ecosystem services, Environmental planning, Environmental resource management, Ecosystem and Provisioning. In addition to Ecosystem services research, Ecosystem services aims to explore topics under Context (language use), Biodiversity, Land use, Natural resource economics and Recreation. It focuses on Natural resource economics but sometimes tackles the closely related topic of Natural capital which is concerned with Capital (economics).
Some problems in Environmental planning that were presented in Ecosystem services overlapped with concepts under Corporate governance, Urban planning, Sustainability, Sustainable management and Valuation (finance). Environmental resource management research presented in Ecosystem services encompasses a variety of subjects, including Coral reef, Climate change, Forest ecology and Ecosystem management. The studies on Ecosystem discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Biosphere and Service (business).
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 Ecosystem services (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 Ecosystem services (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, 6.85% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 17.65% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 11.03% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 16.18% of all publications and 55.15% 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.

(2022)For those interested in Environmental Sciences, exploring bcba programs can open up opportunities in behavior analysis, particularly in sustainability education and community health initiatives. These programs provide specialized training that complements environmental work focused on behavior change.
An increasingly popular choice is pursuing an online environmental health and safety degree, which equips students with crucial skills to manage environmental risk and workplace safety. This degree is essential for careers in regulatory compliance and pollution control.
Environmental challenges often intersect with social and community issues, making degrees like online marriage and family therapy graduate programs relevant for those who want to support families impacted by environmental stressors. Such counseling roles emphasize holistic well-being within affected populations.
Understanding the nuances of various therapy options is important, so reviewing different pathways through types of therapy degrees can help guide students to the right focus area, whether it’s mental health, behavioral interventions, or community support services linked to environmental issues.
