Overview

Top Research Topics at Journal of Agricultural Chemistry and Environment?

The scientific interests tackled in Journal of Agricultural Chemistry and Environment are Agronomy, Soil water, Food science, Animal science and Botany. The studies in Agronomy featured incorporate elements of Biomass and Soil fertility. Topics in Soil water were tackled in line with various other fields like Environmental chemistry, Organic matter and Contamination.

The Organic matter study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Cation-exchange capacity. The study on Animal science presented in Journal of Agricultural Chemistry and Environment intersects with the topics under Soil pH. It connects the study in Botany with the closely related area of Horticulture.

While Fertilizer is the focus of Journal of Agricultural Chemistry and Environment, it also provided insights into the studies of Nutrient and Manure. The in-depth study on Compost also explores topics in the intersecting field of Loam.

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The foci of Journal of Agricultural Chemistry and Environment are Soil water, Agronomy, Horticulture, Phosphorus and Soil test. The research on Soil water tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Organic matter, Pesticide and Wet season. It addresses concerns in Agronomy which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Biomass, Watershed, Soil conservation and Soil conditioner.

The journal focuses on Horticulture but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Photosynthesis, Stomatal conductance, Compensation point and Momordica. Issues in Phosphorus were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Ammonium nitrate, Soil type, Fertilizer, Randomized block design and Eragrostis. In the journal, Chemical composition, Manganese, Aluminium and Analytical chemistry are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Soil test research.

Publication chance based on affiliation

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, 96.15% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 0.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 100.00% of all publications and 0.00% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

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.

Returning Institution Index

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.

The experience to innovation index

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:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
