Limnology explores disciplines such as Ecology, Hydrology, Environmental chemistry, Eutrophication and Phytoplankton. The Ecology research presented places emphasis on topics like Habitat, Ecosystem, Abundance (ecology), Species richness and Biomass (ecology). Sediment and Water column are some topics wherein Hydrology research discussed in the journal have an impact.
The journal explores issues in Environmental chemistry which can be linked to other research areas like Organic matter, Phosphorus and Hypolimnion. The journal is concerned with the study of Eutrophication and Nutrient in general. Topics in Phytoplankton explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Zooplankton, Oceanography, Plankton and Botany.
The concepts on Botany presented in it can also apply to other research fields, including Microcystis aeruginosa and Microcystis. It features Macrophyte research that overlaps with concepts in Aquatic plant.
The journal papers are organized to reinforce research efforts on Hydrology, Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Phytoplankton and Botany. While Hydrology is the focus of the journal papers, it also provides insights into the studies of Thermocline, Hypolimnion and Water column. The most cited articles explore topics in Botany which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Bloom, Microcystis aeruginosa and Microcystis.
Limnology is organized to address concerns in the fields of Ecology, Species richness, Ecosystem, Habitat and Environmental DNA. It aims to address concerns in Ecology, specifically in the areas of Biodiversity, Aquatic ecosystem, Macrophyte, Trophic level and River ecosystem. The studies on Ecosystem discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Biomass (ecology), Dry season and Survey data collection.
Limnology focuses on Biomass (ecology) but sometimes tackles the closely related topic of Sulfur which is concerned with Nutrient and Environmental chemistry. Topics in Environmental DNA were tackled in line with various other fields like Natural (archaeology), Abundance (ecology) and Taxon. The Water quality works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Oceanography and Surface water.
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 Limnology (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 Limnology (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, 12.96% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 21.28% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.89% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 21.28% of all publications and 42.55% 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)Pursuing a degree in Environmental Sciences opens doors to diverse career opportunities focused on sustainability, conservation, and environmental protection. Many students explore what can you do with an environmental science degree to understand the wide range of roles available, from field research to environmental policy and consulting.
For those interested in a more technical approach, earning an environmental engineering degree provides specialized knowledge in designing solutions to environmental challenges like pollution control and waste management. Many of these programs are conveniently offered online, allowing flexibility while maintaining affordability. For more options, check out environmental engineering degree programs that fit different learning styles and schedules.
In addition to environmental fields, some students consider complementary disciplines like speech pathology, especially if they are drawn to healthcare and community support roles. Accelerated speech pathology programs can offer a faster route to certification and employment, often available online to suit busy professionals.
Careers related to behavior analysis are also growing, and choosing from bacb accredited schools ensures that education meets high standards necessary for certification. These online and in-person programs provide essential training for those seeking certification as Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA).
