The main research concerns discussed in Rangeland Ecology & Management are Agronomy, Rangeland, Ecology, Grazing and Vegetation. Perennial plant, Biomass (ecology), Forb, Growing season and Bromus tectorum are all aspects of Agronomy discussed in Rangeland Ecology & Management. The studies in Rangeland featured incorporate elements of Shrub, Tussock and Environmental resource management.
The majority of Environmental resource management studies presented zero in on Adaptive management. Grassland, Plant community, Ecosystem, Habitat and Steppe are all areas of Ecology tackled in the journal. Research on Grassland addressed in it frequently intersections with the field of Species richness.
Rangeland Ecology & Management features Habitat research that overlaps with concepts in Wildlife. It explores topics in Grazing which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Stocking, Animal science, Pasture, Livestock and Forage. The work on Agroforestry tackled in Rangeland Ecology & Management brings together disciplines like Juniper and Woodland.
The most cited publications are organized to address concerns in the fields of Ecology, Rangeland, Agronomy, Grazing and Agroforestry. While Rangeland is the focus of the published articles, it also provides insights into the studies of Hydrology, Surface runoff, Land use and Environmental resource management. The published papers explore topics in Grazing which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Livestock, Pasture, Forage and Stocking.
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 Rangeland Ecology & 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 Rangeland Ecology & 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 2022 edition, 0.00% 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.
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 Plant Science and Agronomy, expanding your expertise through online degrees can open diverse career opportunities. Many students explore accelerated programs to quickly gain specialized knowledge and skills.
If you are looking to change directions, online absn programs offer a fast track to nursing, allowing non-nurses to enter a vital healthcare career. These courses emphasize flexibility and affordability, making them appealing for career changers.
Similarly, many professionals value shorter routes like 6 month rn to bsn program options which provide a swift progression from registered nurse to bachelor's degree with focused study schedules. These hybrid or fully online pathways support working individuals advancing their careers.
For nurses aiming for advanced roles, adn to msn np programs provide a direct bridge from associate’s degree to a master’s preparing for nurse practitioner roles. Understanding how to become nurse practitioner through the shortest time frames can inspire efficient academic planning.
Exploring these career pathways, even beyond plant science, underscores the importance of flexible education models in today’s workforce. Whether your goal is agronomy or healthcare, leveraging these innovative degree programs can accelerate your professional growth.
