Overview

Top Research Topics at Journal of The American Mosquito Control Association?

The concepts of Ecology, Larva, Zoology, Veterinary medicine and Vector (epidemiology) are tackled in Journal of The American Mosquito Control Association. Ecology, which encompasses Aedes, Aedes albopictus, Aedes aegypti, Culex and Habitat, is the main subject of it. Aedes aegypti research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Toxicology and Dengue fever.

Mosquito control, Pesticide, Permethrin and Chemical control are some topics wherein Toxicology research discussed in the journal have an impact. Journal of The American Mosquito Control Association investigates Culex research which frequently intersects with Culex pipiens. While work presented in it provided substantial information on Larva, it also covered topics in Bacillus thuringiensis and Animal science.

Zoology research is concerned with Taxonomy (biology) in particular. Many of the studies tackled connect Veterinary medicine with a similar field of study like Culex quinquefasciatus. The concepts on Vector (epidemiology) presented in Journal of The American Mosquito Control Association can also apply to other research fields, including Malaria, Anopheles, Geographic distribution and Virology.

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The topics of Veterinary medicine, Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, Larva and Habitat are the focal point of discussions in Journal of The American Mosquito Control Association. Some problems in Veterinary medicine that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Arbovirus, Chikungunya and Culex, Mansonia, Aedes. The journal facilitates discussions on Aedes aegypti that incorporate concepts from other fields like Bed bug, Bacillus thuringiensis, Traditional medicine and Novaluron.

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, 75.86% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 28.57% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.29% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 14.29% of all publications and 42.86% 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.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Exploring online degrees related to Animal Science and Veterinary studies opens up diverse career pathways. For those interested in the physical aspects of animal care and rehabilitation, an online bachelor's in kinesiology offers valuable knowledge in body mechanics and health sciences.

Nursing is another critical field closely linked to veterinary care, especially in clinical settings. Students seeking a practical and accessible route may find the accredited lpn programs easy to get into appealing for launching a healthcare career efficiently.

Supporting animal wellbeing can also extend beyond physical health to communication and therapy roles. Programs such as the veteran friendly online speech pathology degree provide specialized training that can benefit those interested in therapeutic interventions.

Furthermore, mental health professionals are increasingly important in holistic care settings, including animal therapy contexts. The best pmhnp programs with strong clinical placements prepare nurses for advanced practice in psychiatric-mental health roles.
