Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science focuses largely on the fields of Oceanography, Ecology, Estuary, Hydrology and Sediment. The presented research on Oceanography deals specifically with Phytoplankton but it also addresses topics in Chlorophyll a. It explores research in Ecology and the adjacent study of Fishery.
Topics in Estuary explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Salinity, Biomass (ecology), Discharge, Intertidal zone and Eutrophication. The journal addresses concerns in Hydrology which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Particulates, Nutrient and Salt marsh. Issues in Sediment were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Environmental chemistry, Total organic carbon and Organic matter.
Benthic zone research is concerned with Benthos in particular. Seagrass is the primary subject of Habitat works presented in Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science. The Plankton study featured in it draws parallels with the field of Zooplankton.
The journal articles cover a variety of subjects, including Oceanography, Estuary, Ecology, Hydrology and Sediment. The Oceanography research presented in the most cited publications focuses mostly on Phytoplankton and, on occasion, topics in Chlorophyll a and Zooplankton. The most cited articles tackle studies in Fishery and the interrelated subject of Seagrass to gain insights into Ecology.
Oceanography, Ecology, Estuary, Ecosystem and Habitat are among the topics commonly tackled in the journal. The Oceanography research presented in it explores the relationship between Sediment and the closely related topic of Erosion. It primarily discusses Ecology topics, particularly Abundance (ecology), Trophic level, Benthic zone, Species richness and Mangrove.
The subject of Wetland, which is connected to the field of Salt marsh, serves as the foundation of the Mangrove research featured in Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science. While work presented in it provided substantial information on Estuary, it also covered topics in Hydrology, Channel (geography), Discharge and Salinity. Topics in Ecosystem were tackled in line with various other fields like Biomass (ecology) and Biodiversity.
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 Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science (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 Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science (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, 5.42% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 19.27% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 3.91% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.10% of all publications and 61.72% 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 environmental sciences, exploring related online degrees can broaden your expertise and career options. Programs such as environmental health and safety bachelor degree online provide specialized knowledge in managing workplace and community health risks, a critical area within environmental science careers.
Additionally, interdisciplinary approaches often enhance career prospects. For instance, understanding behavioral sciences through bcba programs can complement efforts in environmental education and advocacy.
For professionals interested in supporting families affected by environmental changes or disasters, pursuing a marriage and family therapy masters programs online offers targeted skills in therapeutic support and counseling.
Understanding the nuances between various therapeutic practices is also valuable. Exploring different therapy degrees helps prospective students identify the best educational path to align with their career goals in environmental and community health fields.
