Benefits of publishing with Juniper Publishers

Publishing with Juniper publishers offers several important benefits for authors, researchers, and the broader community. Here are some key advantages: 1. Increased Visibility and Reach Open Access articles are freely available online, making them accessible to anyone with an internet connection. This typically results in higher readership and greater exposure, especially in developing countries or institutions without subscription access. 2. Higher Citation Rates Studies have shown that Juniper articles often receive more citations than paywalled articles, due to their wider availability. 3. Faster and Broader Impact Juniper publishers speed up the dissemination of research findings, leading to quicker uptake by practitioners, policymakers, and fellow researchers. This can be particularly important in fields like medicine, public health, and environmental science. 4. Compliance with Funders' Requirements Many funding bodies and institutions strongly encourage Juniper Publishers to...

  Oceanography & Fisheries Open Access Journal Juniper Publishers Authored by: Arlene L Avillanosa Abstract Zooplankton samples were taken in six sampling stations at Malampaya Inner Sound, Taytay, Palawan, to determine its abundance, distribution, and diversity, and composition related to the complete lunar cycle during the month of April 2007. Horizontal towing and vertical hauling of 333 μm plankton net was conducted from the afternoon to midnight, two hours before the onset of the moon phase. 27 zooplankton taxa belonged to eight (8) different phyla identified. During the entire lunar phase, arthropods, chordates, cnidarians, and chaetognaths were present. Zooplankton appears in great abundance during nighttime, full moon, and high tide based on 1-month sampling. Higher zooplankton diversity was observed during the new and full moon, largely represented by arthropods, particularly copepods and decapods. Generally, the area has a high number of individuals but...
