The journal mainly tackles studies in Environmental resource management, Fishery, Environmental protection, Environmental planning and Fishing. Some problems in Environmental resource management that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Marine protected area, Sustainability, Tourism and Ecosystem. It links adjacent topics like Marine protected area with Marine conservation.
The journal dives deep in exploring the relationship between the study of Tourism and Recreation. The Ecosystem research dealing mostly with Ecosystem services is the focus of the journal. The research on Fishery tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Ecology and Habitat.
Many of the studies tackled connect Environmental protection with a similar field of study like Natural resource. Ocean & Coastal Management addresses concerns in Environmental planning which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Government and Sustainable development. Most of the works presented in the journal deals with Fishing but it intersects with the subject of Livelihood.
The journal publications facilitate discussions on Environmental resource management, Environmental protection, Fishery, Coastal management and Environmental planning. In addition to Environmental resource management research, the published articles aim to explore topics under Tourism, Marine protected area, Corporate governance, Sustainable development and Sustainability. The journal papers facilitate discussions on Fishery that incorporate concepts from other fields like Ecology, Oceanography and Aquaculture.
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 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 Ocean & Coastal 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, 5.84% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 10.85% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 7.75% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.86% of all publications and 62.53% 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.
