The journal investigates studies in Paleontology, Genus, Fauna, Ecology and Cretaceous. Many of the studies tackled connect Paleontology with a similar field of study like Zoology. The work tackled in Journal of Paleontology goes beyond the discipline of Genus as it also encompasses Range (biology).
Paleontology, Ecology, Fauna, Genus and Cretaceous are the main subjects of interest in the journal publications. Paleontology study tackled in the journal publications is connected to the field of Zoology. The most cited publications center on topics in Fauna, with a focus on Conodont.
Journal of Paleontology primarily focuses on research topics in Paleontology, Genus, Fauna, Taxon and Cretaceous. Journal of Paleontology facilitates discussions on Paleontology that incorporate concepts from other fields like Zoology, Art history and Presentation. The studies on Genus discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Ridge, Tremadocian and Key (lock).
It deals with Fauna in conjunction with Permian and similar fields in Millipede and Group (stratigraphy). Aside from discussions in Taxon, it also deals with the subject of Paleozoic which intersects with Mesozoic disciplines. Topics in Cretaceous were tackled in line with various other fields like Coastal plain, Skeleton (computer programming) and Geologic record.
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 Paleontology (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 Paleontology (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, 32.77% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 30.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 16.25% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 16.25% of all publications and 37.50% 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 Ecology and Evolution opens doors to various interdisciplinary career paths, including healthcare and environmental management. For students interested in advancing their qualifications quickly, the easy DNP programs offer accelerated options that balance rigorous scientific study with practical application.
Admission into related fields like nursing is also evolving. Many institutions now provide alternatives to traditional entrance exams. For instance, several accredited institutions offer nursing programs that don't require TEAS test, making the pathway to healthcare careers more accessible for ecology graduates interested in human health.
Understanding admission competitiveness is vital. Reviewing nursing school acceptance rates can help prospective students select programs that align with their academic profile. Consulting resources on nursing school acceptance rate can provide valuable insights into the most attainable programs.
Finally, for those inclined towards leadership roles in the healthcare system, pursuing a healthcare administration degree online combines ecological awareness with management skills, offering a versatile career pathway in the growing healthcare sector.
