Introduction

Fisheries and aquaculture research addresses food production, aquatic-resource management, environmental sustainability, animal health, and technological development. Contemporary evaluation increasingly considers both research quality and measurable scholarly dissemination. Within this context, Mohamed Abdel-Aziz’s reported academic record offers a basis for examining research activity, disciplinary alignment, publication development, and citation visibility in relation to an innovative research recognition framework. [4]

Research Profile

Mohamed Abdel-Aziz is identified with Arish University and the subject area of Fisheries and Aquaculture Science. The supplied bibliometric profile records 40 documents, 429 citations, and an h-index of 12 under Scopus Author ID 57220512443. His ORCID identifier provides an additional persistent scholarly identity mechanism for distinguishing research outputs across publishing and indexing systems. [1] [2]

Research Contributions

The researcher’s stated disciplinary focus places his academic work within fisheries and aquaculture, a field encompassing aquatic organisms, production systems, resource utilization, and sustainable food development. A portfolio of 40 indexed documents indicates sustained scholarly publication activity, while citation accumulation provides a quantitative measure of how published research has been referenced within the scholarly literature. [1]

Publications

The supplied profile reports 40 scholarly documents associated with Scopus Author ID 57220512443. These publications should be interpreted through the researcher’s verified bibliographic records rather than through isolated citation counts. For formal assessment, publication titles, journals, years, authorship positions, DOI metadata, and subject relevance can be cross-checked against authoritative indexing and persistent researcher-identification services. [1] [2]

Research Impact

Research impact can be considered through scholarly citations, dissemination, disciplinary relevance, and the usefulness of findings to scientific or applied communities. The reported 429 citations and h-index of 12 indicate measurable citation visibility in the supplied profile. Such indicators are most appropriately considered alongside publication quality, contribution, collaboration, and research significance. [1]

Award Suitability

The reported academic affiliation, fisheries and aquaculture specialization, publication record, citation activity, and persistent researcher identifiers provide relevant evidence for consideration under an innovative research recognition category. Final award suitability should, however, be determined through the organizer’s published eligibility rules, documentary requirements, peer evaluation procedures, and independent verification of research outputs rather than bibliometric indicators alone.

Conclusion

Mohamed Abdel-Aziz’s supplied academic profile demonstrates an established research presence in Fisheries and Aquaculture Science, supported by reported publication and citation indicators and persistent scholarly identifiers. The combination of 40 documents, 429 citations, and an h-index of 12 provides a quantitative foundation for academic recognition, while detailed publication-level assessment remains necessary to establish originality, significance, and innovation.

[1]

Abstract

Moaheda E.H. Eissa is a researcher at Suez Canal University, Egypt, associated with Fisheries & Aquaculture Science. The supplied scholarly profile records 70 documents, 1,147 citations, and an h-index of 20. These indicators provide a measurable overview of publication activity and citation influence within the indexed research record. Her disciplinary profile connects directly with aquatic food production and the wider agricultural and food-system landscape, where fisheries and aquaculture support food availability, livelihoods, resource utilization, and sustainability. The Young Researcher Award profile therefore recognizes an academically documented research trajectory relevant to fisheries, aquaculture, agricultural science, and sustainable food systems. [1]

Keywords

Fisheries, Aquaculture, Aquatic Food Systems, Sustainable Aquaculture, Agricultural Science, Food Security, Aquatic Resources, Research Impact, Bibliometrics, Suez Canal University, Egypt, Young Researcher Award.

Introduction

Fisheries and aquaculture form an important component of contemporary food systems because they provide aquatic foods while supporting employment, nutrition, and economic activity. Sustainable development in these fields requires scientific knowledge concerning aquatic production, resource use, environmental conditions, and responsible management. The Food and Agriculture Organization recognizes fisheries and aquaculture as significant components of global food and nutrition systems, making research in this area relevant to broader agricultural sustainability discussions. [2]

Research Profile

Moaheda E.H. Eissa is affiliated with Suez Canal University in Egypt and is identified within the supplied academic information as a researcher in Fisheries & Aquaculture Science. Her profile contains 70 indexed documents and 1,147 citations, with an h-index of 20. These indicators are useful descriptive measures of scholarly productivity and citation performance, although bibliometric indicators should be interpreted alongside the quality, relevance, authorship, and substantive contribution of individual publications. [1]

Research Contributions

The supplied disciplinary classification indicates a research contribution centered on fisheries and aquaculture science. This field encompasses scientific work supporting the production, management, conservation, and responsible utilization of aquatic biological resources. Its agricultural relevance arises particularly through aquaculture as a food-production activity and through the integration of aquatic resources within sustainable food systems. The profile can therefore be situated within a broader research landscape concerned with food production, resource efficiency, environmental sustainability, and aquatic food security. [2]

Publications

The supplied Scopus record reports 70 documents associated with the researcher identifier 57850549800. These indexed documents constitute the publication base from which the reported citation count and h-index are derived. A complete assessment of publication-level contributions would require examination of the individual articles, publication venues, authorship roles, research methods, and subject-specific findings rather than relying exclusively on aggregate bibliometric indicators. [1]

Research Impact

The supplied bibliometric indicators report 1,147 citations and an h-index of 20 across 70 documents. These figures indicate that the indexed publication record has received substantial scholarly attention within the relevant citation database. Citation counts and h-index values are quantitative indicators rather than complete measures of research quality or societal impact, and their interpretation can vary according to discipline, publication age, database coverage, and collaboration patterns. [1]

Award Suitability

The supplied profile is relevant to the Young Researcher Award category because it documents an identifiable academic affiliation, a defined research subject area, an indexed publication record, and measurable citation indicators. The connection to Fisheries & Aquaculture Science also places the research within the broader agricultural and food-production domain. Award evaluation should nevertheless consider the substantive quality and originality of the research, methodological rigor, contribution to the field, publication record, and evidence of scientific or practical relevance in addition to bibliometric measures. [1]

Conclusion

Moaheda E.H. Eissa’s supplied academic profile represents a research trajectory associated with Fisheries & Aquaculture Science at Suez Canal University in Egypt. The reported 70 documents, 1,147 citations, and h-index of 20 provide a quantitative summary of the indexed scholarly record. Her disciplinary area is relevant to agriculture through aquaculture, aquatic food production, resource management, and sustainable food systems. On the information provided, the profile presents a reasonable academic basis for consideration within the Young Researcher Award framework, subject to independent verification and evaluation of the underlying research contributions.
