Abstract

Researching in Sophisticated laboratories, must be back by the publishing of rigorous experiments results ensuring the quality standards. This research paper uses various tools and criteria to determine the scope and impact of a scientific journal which are based on citation data from journal articles. When selecting targets for publication and evaluation of research results, the use of journal ranking tables based on cited measures reduces uncertainty. Researchers, scholars, and information scientists are encouraged to use journal quality indicators to evaluate journals in their areas of interest. Using Scopus, the world's largest index database, the SCImago Journal and Country Rank (https://www.scim agojr.com) website rank journals based on a variety of measures, including the SJR H-index on International collaboration and various citation indicators. Using data from the SCImago Journal and Country Rank databases, the current study examines the citation-based scientometric indicators of two important journals, Avian Conservation and Ecology (ACE) and Zoological Research (ZR), between 2011 and 2020.
