Abstract Abstract
This study aims at analysing the research output performance of scientists on Ecology. In
academic and scientific work, publication is the chief means of communicating research, a primary
means of recognition and reward, and hence a central social process in any academic as well as
Research Institutions. Therefore, it is through publication the scientists receive professional
recognition and esteem as promotion, advancement, and funding for future research. This study
attempts to analyse the performance of scientists working in various institutions in terms of growth
rate, areas of research concentration, author productivity and authorship pattern.
