The high scientific quality combined with the application of the research results is the basis on which our research team is an international reference.

The number of scientific publications remains at around 127 indexed publications per year (2021 data), of which 71% are in the 1 quartile, with a h-index of 90. In terms of quality, the number of citations continues to increase steadily, reaching 29.5 citations per publication and 49.6% of them with an AZTI researcher as first author. It is worth highlighting the publication in 2021 in high impact journals such as Nature, Nature Climate Change, Nature Sustainability, Global Change Biology, Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews, Limnology and Oceanography letters, Journal of Hazardous Materials, Fish and Fisheries etc.

These are the scientific articles published by AZTI’s research staff from August 2021 to March 2022.
