The journal mainly deals with areas of study such as Botany, Horticulture, Photosynthesis, Agronomy and Shoot. As a part of Tree Physiology, discussions in Botany involve topics like Stomatal conductance, Xylem, Transpiration, Canopy and Growing season. The studies on Stomatal conductance discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Vapour Pressure Deficit and Water-use efficiency.
The research on Xylem featured in it combines topics in other fields like Hydraulic conductivity and Phloem. The Transpiration study featured in it draws connections with the study of Water use. While the primary focus in Tree Physiology is Canopy, it also dissects topics surrounding Atmospheric sciences and Ecology as a whole.
The concepts on Horticulture presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Crown (botany), Phenology and Respiration. The journal holds forums on Photosynthesis that merges themes from other disciplines such as Chlorophyll, Carbon dioxide and Acclimatization. The Agronomy works featured in Tree Physiology incorporate elements from Soil water, Nutrient and Woody plant.
The most cited publications mostly deal with topics like Botany, Horticulture, Photosynthesis, Agronomy and Stomatal conductance. The Horticulture research presented in the most cited articles focuses mostly on Respiration and, on occasion, topics in Animal science. The most cited publications explore topics in Agronomy which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Ecology, Soil water and Nutrient.
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 Tree Physiology (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 Tree Physiology (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, 4.05% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 25.82% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.21% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 13.62% of all publications and 48.36% 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.
