Journal of Limnology mostly deals with topics like Ecology, Hydrology, Phytoplankton, Zooplankton and Oceanography. Species richness, Habitat, Trophic level, Biodiversity and Abundance (ecology) are all subfields of Ecology research that were featured in the journal. Topics in Hydrology were tackled in line with various other fields like Environmental chemistry, Sediment, Water column and Eutrophication.
Studies on Water column discussed in it link to the field of Hypolimnion. Phytoplankton study tackled is connected to the field of Biomass (ecology). Journal of Limnology focuses on Zooplankton as well as the interrelated topic of Plankton.
The most cited articles explore disciplines such as Ecology, Hydrology, Phytoplankton, Oceanography and Trophic level. The most cited publications cover various topics on Ecology such as Zooplankton, Eutrophication, Biomass (ecology), Abundance (ecology) and Habitat. The featured Phytoplankton studies in the most cited publications mainly concentrate on Plankton but also cover areas of interest in Diatom.
The foci of the journal are Ecology, Oceanography, Limnology, Environmental chemistry and Archaeology. The concepts on Ecology presented in Journal of Limnology can also apply to other research fields, including Drainage basin and Microcystis aeruginosa. Oceanography research featured in Journal of Limnology incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Cascade, Spatial variability, Eutrophication and Chlorophyll a.
The journal served as a forum through which researchers explored different topics like Limnology and Term (time). Journal of Limnology focuses on Environmental chemistry but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Contamination and Brown trout. In addition to Invertebrate research, it aims to explore topics under Diversity (politics), Biodiversity and Predation.
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 Journal of Limnology (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 Journal of Limnology (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, 100.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, nan% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another nan% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included nan% of all publications and nan% 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)Exploring a career in Environmental Sciences offers diverse opportunities that extend beyond traditional study paths. Many students today opt for flexible learning formats, including the environmental engineering online degree, which combines core environmental knowledge with applied engineering skills to address pressing ecological challenges.
For those wishing to pivot into specialized areas of health and safety within the environment, pursuing an environmental health and safety online degree programs can prepare graduates to manage workplace and public health risks effectively.
Interestingly, interdisciplinary approaches such as behavioral sciences complement environmental studies. Programs like the behavioral analysis degree help professionals understand human behavior patterns, which is crucial in designing sustainable environmental solutions.
While not directly related to environmental sciences, pathways such as the accelerated slp master's program illustrate the growing trend of accessible, fast-tracked online education options that cater to diverse career goals and life circumstances.
Considering these options allows prospective students to tailor their education to specific interests and industry demands while benefiting from the flexibility of online learning.
