The topics of Oceanography, Ecology, Fishery, Ecosystem and Habitat are the focal point of discussions in the journal. The journal focuses on Oceanography as well as the interrelated topic of Phytoplankton. Benthic zone, Coral reef, Reef, Coral and Biodiversity are all aspects of Ecology research featured in the journal.
In the Fishery research discussed, Fishing and Fisheries management are all tackled. The majority of Ecosystem studies in it are focused on the subject of Marine ecosystem.
The main points discussed in the journal papers deal with Ecology, Oceanography, Ecosystem, Environmental resource management and Climate change. The published papers facilitate discussions on Oceanography that incorporate concepts from other fields like Phytoplankton and Biogeochemical cycle. The journal papers hold forums on Environmental resource management that merge themes from other disciplines such as Marine Strategy Framework Directive and Sustainability.
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 Frontiers in Marine 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 Frontiers in Marine 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, 7.12% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 19.67% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.87% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 20.20% of all publications and 50.27% 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)Studying Environmental Sciences in the USA opens doors to various interdisciplinary career paths. For those interested in combining environmental knowledge with applied psychology, exploring a behavioral analysis degree online can provide skills in understanding human behavior and promoting sustainable practices.
Another vital field closely connected to environmental sciences is workplace safety. Pursuing an online environmental health and safety degree equips students to manage hazards and ensure regulatory compliance in various industries, enhancing environmental protection at organizational levels.
For those passionate about mental health and family well-being, environmental factors often intersect with personal lives. Programs offering the best online MFT programs provide training to support communities in coping with stressors linked to environmental changes.
Choosing the right career path may also involve understanding the nuances of therapy professions. Reviewing the types of therapist degrees helps students identify which qualifications align with their goals, whether focused on environmental impact or human health.
Together, these related online degree options highlight the diverse opportunities for Environmental Sciences graduates to apply their knowledge in meaningful and impactful ways.
