The journal mainly deals with areas of study such as Fishery, Ecology, Zoology, Oyster and Crassostrea. Fishery research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Shellfish, Bay, Animal science and Aquaculture. It focused on Shellfish research conducted under the discipline of Aquatic animal.
The work tackled in it goes beyond the discipline of Bay as it also encompasses Scallop. Animal science research discussed connects with the study of Juvenile. Habitat, Larva, Intertidal zone, Mussel and Salinity are all aspects of Ecology research featured in Journal of Shellfish Research.
The journal focuses on Zoology but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Gonad and Reproduction. Topics in Oyster explored in Journal of Shellfish Research were investigated in conjunction with research in Reef and Estuary. Pacific oyster is a focus of the presented Crassostrea works and it dives deep in Pacific oyster.
The most cited papers primarily focus on research topics in Fishery, Ecology, Oyster, Crassostrea and Zoology. While Fishery is the focus of the most cited papers, it also provides insights into the studies of Shellfish, Aquatic animal and Aquaculture. The Ecology research tackled in the published articles is interrelated with Bay which concerns subjects like Scallop.
The journal investigates areas of study like Fishery, Bay, Oyster, Aquaculture and Estuary. The work on Fishery addressed in Journal of Shellfish Research expands to the thematically related Biomass (ecology). The Bay works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Resource (biology) and Intertidal zone.
The Crassostrea and Eastern oyster studies presented in Journal of Shellfish Research fall under the field of Oyster, but it also has connections to other fields such as Chemoreceptor. Aquaculture research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Mytilus, Hatchery, Survivorship curve and Ostrea edulis. The studies on Estuary discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Abundance (ecology) and Pacific decadal oscillation.
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 Shellfish Research (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 Shellfish Research (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, 9.68% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 39.29% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 7.14% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 32.14% of all publications and 21.43% 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)Studying Biology or Biochemistry opens doors to diverse career paths, many of which can be pursued through specialized online degree programs. For those seeking a flexible start, an online bachelor's in biology offers a comprehensive foundation that can lead to research, healthcare, or environmental science roles.
For students interested in the human body and physical health, an best exercise science degree online equips learners with the knowledge to advance careers in physical therapy, fitness training, or rehabilitation. Many programs also emphasize quick completion times, making options like online exercise science programs attractive for busy professionals eager to upskill rapidly.
For those focused on mental health, combining biochemistry or biology with nursing can lead to specialized roles. Exploring the cheapest pmhnp programs is a practical step for aspiring psychiatric nurse practitioners aiming to make a difference in mental healthcare without excessive financial burden.
Ultimately, these related degree paths highlight the versatility of biology and biochemistry studies when paired with online learning options tailored to various professional goals.
