Aquaculture International Impact Factor continues to rise!

Aquaculture International (AQUI) is the peer-reviewed journal of the EAS. Its 2016 Impact Factor (IF) was 1.095, thus reaching one of the main objectives of the Editorial Board and EAS Board. In 2017, the IF rose again to 1.283.

We are proud to see that it has now exceeded the milestone level of 1 for the last 5 years and hope very much that this will encourage more publications from EAS members and non-members. See more on submitting papers to AQUI
