The objective of the journal is to combine knowledge in the areas of Ecology, Zoology, Botany, Humanities and Fishery. Species richness, Abundance (ecology), Habitat, Biodiversity and Reef are all areas of Ecology tackled in Revista De Biologia Tropical. The studies in Reef featured incorporate elements of Coral reef and Coral.
Ecology, Botany, Fishery, Zoology and Humanities are the main subjects of interest in the most cited publications. In the Ecology research discussed in the published articles, Habitat, Reef, Coral reef, Abundance (ecology) and Fauna are all tackled. The journal publications connects the study in Reef with the closely related areas of Coral.
Revista De Biologia Tropical mostly deals with topics like Zoology, Ecology, Humanities, Biodiversity and Species richness. The concepts on Zoology presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Cassiduloida, Reproduction, Seawater, Echinoderm and Sea urchin. Habitat, Reef, Rare species, Invasive species and Transect are among the concentrations of Ecology that garnered much attention in Revista De Biologia Tropical.
Topics in Biodiversity explored in the journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Range (biology), Taxonomy (biology) and Checklist. Topics in Taxonomy (biology) were tackled in line with various other fields like Genus and Archaeology. While it focused on Species richness, it was also able to explore topics like Lichen and Germination.
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 Revista De Biologia Tropical (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 Revista De Biologia Tropical (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, 24.18% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 34.78% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 17.39% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 14.49% of all publications and 33.33% 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)Studying Ecology and Evolution opens the door to diverse career opportunities that often intersect with health and environmental management. Many students look to enhance their qualifications with focused online programs that complement their scientific background. For instance, professionals interested in healthcare leadership may consider enrolling in a fast online master's in healthcare management to develop essential administrative skills quickly.
Those interested in advancing clinical roles, particularly in nursing, might explore streamlined options like 1 year FNP programs. These programs provide intensive training in family nursing practice, enabling rapid career progression. Additionally, specialized fields such as acute care offer tailored education pathways; learning more about acute care nurse practitioner programs can help professionals transition effectively into critical care roles.
For those combining ecological knowledge with informatics, a bachelor of science in health information management salary details and career pathways shed light on opportunities in managing complex healthcare data systems. These interconnected fields demonstrate the versatility of studying Ecology and Evolution in the USA, with online degree options paving the way for dynamic, interdisciplinary careers.
