Overview

Top Research Topics at Neues Jahrbuch Fur Geologie Und Palaontologie-abhandlungen?

The discussions in Neues Jahrbuch Fur Geologie Und Palaontologie-abhandlungen mainly cover the fields of Paleontology, Cretaceous, Geochemistry, Zoology and Structural basin. While Paleontology is the focus of Neues Jahrbuch Fur Geologie Und Palaontologie-abhandlungen, it also provided insights into the studies of Taxonomy (biology), Fauna and Genus.

  • Paleontology (50.59%)
  • Cretaceous (10.52%)
  • Geochemistry (9.95%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

  • A rationale for phylogenetic definitions,with application to the higher-level taxonomyof Dinosauria [41-83 ] (232 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Neues Jahrbuch Fur Geologie Und Palaontologie-abhandlungen:

The most cited papers investigate studies in Paleontology, Cretaceous, Ecology, Zoology and Geochemistry. Most of the works presented in the journal articles deal with Paleontology but they intersect with the subject of Fauna. Zoology research presented in the most cited publications is mostly focused on the subject of Genus.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Genus
  • Paleontology
  • Ecology

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The foci of Neues Jahrbuch Fur Geologie Und Palaontologie-abhandlungen are Paleontology, Taxonomy (biology), Decapoda, Crustacean and Stratigraphy. The in-depth study on Paleontology also explores topics in the intersecting field of Systematics. The studies in Taxonomy (biology) featured incorporate elements of Pennsylvanian, Horseshoe crab, Group (stratigraphy), Xiphosura and Ammonitina.

The studies on Decapoda discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Archipelago and Cretaceous. The journal deals with Crustacean in conjunction with Archaeology and similar fields in Dorippoidea, Ethusidae, Central Highlands and Anthropocene. While Stratigraphy is the key highlight in the journal, it also covered some subjects on Viséan and Facies, Channel (geography) and Goniatite.

  • The endobiontic serpulids in corals and other reef associated fauna from the Messinian of Algeria (2 citations)
  • The Rhynie chert land plant Aglaophyton majus harbored cyanobacteria in necrotic local lesions (1 citations)
  • Environment and taphonomy of an intrabasinal upland flora preserved in lower Permian volcaniclastic sediments (1 citations)

Papers citation over time

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 Neues Jahrbuch Fur Geologie Und Palaontologie-abhandlungen (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Alessandro Garassino (39 papers) published 5 papers at the last edition, 5 less than at the previous edition,

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, 98.55% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 100.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 0.00% 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.
