The journal explores disciplines such as Sedimentology, Sediment, Climate change, Oceanography and Holocene. The work on Sedimentology tackled in Journal of Paleolimnology brings together disciplines like Sedimentary rock, Structural basin and Paleolimnology. Journal of Paleolimnology focuses on Sediment but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Hydrology, Drainage basin and Organic matter.
Journal of Paleolimnology addresses concerns in Organic matter which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry and Total organic carbon. While work presented in the journal provided substantial information on Climate change, it also covered topics in Climatology and Physical geography. It concentrates on Oceanography topics that focus on Diatom, Arctic, Biogenic silica, Salinity and Water column.
It holds forums on Diatom that merges themes from other disciplines such as Benthic zone, Fragilaria and Plankton. Holocene research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Glacial period, Radiocarbon dating, Quaternary and Water level. Journal of Paleolimnology focuses on Ecology as well as the interrelated topic of Subfossil.
The most cited papers are mainly concerned with subjects like Sedimentology, Climate change, Sediment, Oceanography and Holocene. The Sedimentology research tackled in the published papers is interrelated with Organic matter which concerns subjects like Total organic carbon. While the primary focus in the journal publications is Sediment, they also dissect topics surrounding Hydrology and Partial least squares regression and Transect as a whole.
The journal mostly deals with topics like Sedimentology, Sediment, Climate change, Physical geography and Ecology. Some problems in Sedimentology that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Sedimentary depositional environment, Precipitation, Deposition (geology) and Eutrophication. In it, Watershed, Structural basin, Oceanography, Water column and Crustacean are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Sediment research.
While Journal of Paleolimnology focused on Oceanography, it was also able to explore topics like Sedimentary rock, Organic matter, Total organic carbon and δ15N. Diatom, Lake ecosystem and Paleoecology are some topics wherein Climate change research discussed in the journal have an impact. The research on Physical geography featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Drainage basin, Holocene, Plateau, Spatial heterogeneity and Erosion.
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 Paleolimnology (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 Paleolimnology (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, 8.45% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 29.23% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.23% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 24.62% of all publications and 36.92% 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 students interested in Environmental Sciences, exploring related fields can broaden career prospects and deepen interdisciplinary understanding. Areas such as counseling play a crucial role when addressing human dimensions of environmental challenges. Popular programs like marriage and family masters programs emphasize relational dynamics, which can be vital in community-based environmental initiatives.
Choosing the right program is key, as highlighted in resources explaining different counselling degree options. These offer specialized skills that complement environmental work, especially in behavioral change and conflict resolution.
Healthcare professionals, such as psychiatric nurse practitioners, also contribute significantly to environmental health discussions. Understanding salary trends, like those presented in nurse practitioner salary reports, helps students evaluate viable career paths combining environmental and health sciences.
Finally, pursuing a masters in psychology online can enrich a student’s ability to analyze human behavior in environmental contexts. This diversity in education pathways underscores the dynamic career possibilities connected to Environmental Sciences.
