The journal is mainly concerned with subjects like Hydrology, Ecology, Water quality, Fishery and Eutrophication. It facilitates discussions on Hydrology that incorporate concepts from other fields like Phosphorus, Sediment and Nutrient. The study of Environmental chemistry and how it intertwines with concepts under Pollution and Organic matter were explored in the presented Sediment research.
Nutrient and Water column are closely related fields of research discussed in the journal. Phytoplankton, Trophic level, Zooplankton, Abundance (ecology) and Habitat are among the areas of Ecology tackled. The journal addresses concerns in Phytoplankton which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Biomass (ecology) and Plankton.
The research on Water quality featured in it combines topics in other fields like Water pollution and Ecosystem. The Fishery study featured in Lakes and Reservoirs: Research and Management draws parallels with the field of Fish farming. The journal focused on Eutrophication research but expanded to cover Oceanography.
The published articles are organized to reinforce research efforts on Ecology, Hydrology, Eutrophication, Water quality and Fishery. In addition to Hydrology research, the published papers aim to explore topics under Sediment and Water resource management. The featured Water quality studies in the journal publications mainly concentrate on Wetland but also cover areas of interest in Habitat and Biodiversity.
The main research concerns discussed in Lakes and Reservoirs: Research and Management are Fishery, Hydrology, Water quality, Zoology and Ecology. The journal focuses on Fishery but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Forest habitat and Fish farming. Lakes and Reservoirs: Research and Management explores issues in Hydrology which can be linked to other research areas like Trophic level, Sediment and Species richness.
While work presented in Lakes and Reservoirs: Research and Management provided substantial information on Water quality, it also covered topics in Phytoplankton, Bay and Agronomy, Infestation. Topics in Zoology were tackled in line with various other fields like Biodiversity and Lepidocephalichthys guntea. The studies in Ecology featured incorporate elements of Diversity (politics) and Water level.
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 Lakes and Reservoirs: Research and Management (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 Lakes and Reservoirs: Research and Management (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, 3.33% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 20.69% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 17.24% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 17.24% of all publications and 44.83% 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 those interested in Ecology and Evolution, there are several related online degrees that can expand career options across health and science fields. For example, students can explore online sonography programs to develop skills in medical imaging, which benefits research in biological systems and environmental health.
Healthcare-focused pathways also complement ecological studies, such as pursuing an asn program to become a registered nurse with a strong grounding in patient and community care. These clinical skills intersect with broader ecosystem and population health paradigms.
Advanced research roles or leadership positions often require a doctoral degree. Those interested might consider a phd healthcare program, which prepares students to manage complex healthcare systems—knowledge that can drive policy and conservation efforts related to public health and biodiversity.
For mental health professionals, integrating environmental factors is critical. Short, focused training like pmhnp certificate programs offer pathways to specialize as psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners, bridging healthcare and ecological well-being in diverse populations.
