Zoology in the Middle East
|
|
The only journal covering the
faunal biodiversity of the entire Middle East, an outstanding region of the
world
– covered in the Science Citation
Index (SCIE) –
The Middle
East at its location at the intersection of three zoogeographic regions endows
a vast landscape with a striking diversity of habitats and fauna and flora with
many endemic species. Zoology in the Middle East is the only scientific
journal covering the whole range of zoology in this unique region of the world
and helps further the understanding of the Middle East as a zoogeographical
unit. The journal aims at improving the interchange of knowledge and ideas
between specialists on different subjects and taxa.
Zoology in
the Middle East publishes original papers on ecology, zoogeography, animal
biology, biodiversity, faunistics, systematics, and taxonomy of the Middle
East. Single issues of the journal may be dedicated to certain topics, animal
groups or regions. 968 authors from 55 countries (click here
for list) have published their scientific results in Zoology in the Middle
East. The journal is thus a unique information source on Middle East wildlife;
the first 48 volumes comprise over 6000 printed pages.
Zoology in
the Middle East has found place in the elite Science
Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), which comprises a selection of the world's
leading scholarly science and technical journals from more than 150
disciplines, and forms the basis for calculating the impact factor (IP). It is
a refereed journal with an Advisory Board whose members come from twelve
different countries.
