Overview

Top Research Topics at Ornis Hungarica?

Ornis Hungarica is organized to address concerns in the fields of Ecology, Zoology, Habitat, Fishery and Falcon. Research on Ecology presented in Ornis Hungarica focuses, in particular, on Predation, Nest, Abundance (ecology), Tyto and Woodpecker. Morphometrics and Peregrinus studies are all carried out as a component of the study in Zoology presented.

Most of the works presented in it deals with Habitat but it intersects with the subject of Selection (genetic algorithm).

  • Ecology (34.62%)
  • Zoology (32.69%)
  • Habitat (12.02%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

Research areas of the most cited articles at Ornis Hungarica:

The published articles are organized to reinforce research efforts on Ecology, Falco vespertinus, Habitat, Zoology and Climate change. The journal articles feature Ecology research that overlaps with concepts in World population. The most cited publications focus on Zoology but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Type (biology) and Falco tinnunculus.

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

  • Ecology

The journal focuses largely on the fields of Ecology, Zoology, Habitat, Nesting (computing) and Red-footed falcon. Ornis Hungarica blends together research topics in Ecology and Pannonian basin. The journal explores topics in Zoology which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Harrier, Term (time), Accipitridae and Cranial asymmetry.

The work on Habitat tackled in Ornis Hungarica brings together disciplines like Abundance (ecology), Species richness and Egg laying. The Nesting (computing) works featured in Ornis Hungarica incorporate elements from Lesser adjutant, National park, Cecropis daurica and Selection (genetic algorithm).

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Breeding biology of the Woodcock ( L.) in the Carpathian Basin (0 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 Ornis Hungarica (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Tibor Csörgő (27 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Péter Fehérvári (19 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Andrea Harnos (16 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Zsolt Karcza (12 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Jenő Eugen Kessler (11 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition.

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 Ornis Hungarica (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Szent István University (8 papers) absent at the last edition.

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.

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, 13.33% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 46.15% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 30.77% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.38% of all publications and 7.69% 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.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Exploring Ecology and Evolution opens many career paths, often intersecting with fields like healthcare and environmental management. For those interested in advancing practical skills, it’s helpful to consider diverse educational options. For example, healthcare-related paths such as nursing and administration continue to grow, with options catering to different preferences and needs.

Students seeking advanced roles may find programs like the easy dnp programs attractive, as they offer a streamlined approach to earning a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree. Additionally, knowing the nursing school acceptance rate can help prospective students select institutions with higher admission chances.

For those interested in leadership within healthcare systems, pursuing majors like healthcare administration majors online provides flexibility and accelerated options. Moreover, some applicants prefer nursing schools that simplify the entry process by not requiring standardized tests, which is why identifying a nursing school that does not require teas test can be crucial in planning educational pathways.

Combining ecological knowledge with applicable healthcare or administration skills may open unique interdisciplinary career opportunities in research, conservation, and public health sectors.
