Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems focuses on Ecology, Fishery, Crayfish, Habitat and Zoology. Species richness, Introduced species, Invasive species, Ecosystem and Invertebrate are all topics related to Ecology research discussed. Presentations on Crayfish include those discussing Pacifastacus, Astacus, Procambarus clarkii, Austropotamobius torrentium and Crayfish plague.
Pacifastacus research is the primary subject tackled in the journal with a focus on Signal crayfish.
Ecology, Crayfish, Fishery, Invasive species and Habitat are the main subjects of interest in the journal publications. The study of Crayfish in the journal publications encompasses disciplines such as Procambarus fallax, as well as fields such as Cambaridae, all of which overlap with one another. Aside from discussions in Invasive species, the published articles also deal with the subject of Introduced species which intersects with Round goby and Environmental protection disciplines.
The discussions in Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems mainly cover the fields of Ecology, Zoology, Invasive species, Habitat and Fishery. The work on Zoology tackled in it brings together disciplines like Crayfish, Lineage (evolution), Trout and Genetic diversity. The research on Crayfish tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Swamp, Anthropogenic pressure and Crustacean.
Topics in Invasive species explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Biodiversity, Predation, Myriophyllum, Spread rate and Population structure. It facilitates discussions on Habitat that incorporate concepts from other fields like Brackish water, Interspecific competition, Dikerogammarus, Xiphophorus and Competition (biology). The journal explores research in Fishery alongside concepts in Hydropower and other areas of study in Residence time (fluid dynamics) and Juvenile.
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 Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems (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 Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems (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, 5.88% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 37.50% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 6.25% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.75% 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)Studying Environmental Sciences in the USA opens doors to diverse career paths. Graduates can explore roles in sustainability, environmental policy, and engineering. For those interested in technical solutions, pursuing an environmental engineer degree online offers specialized skills to design and implement eco-friendly technologies.
Beyond engineering, environmental science graduates often engage in interdisciplinary work. For example, some may integrate knowledge from psychology by earning a masters of psychology online to better understand human behaviors impacting the environment.
Career opportunities are broad, with options ranging from research and education to consulting and government roles. To gauge financial expectations, it's helpful to look at related fields like healthcare, where the mental health nurse practitioner salary varies by location and can indicate regional economic trends.
Understanding what can you get with an environmental science degree helps students and professionals make informed decisions. Online degree programs provide flexible learning options, making it easier to pursue these valuable career pathways while balancing other commitments.
