Aquatic Toxicology

ISSN: 0166-445X
5 Year impact factor: 4.4
Impact factor: 4.1

Aquatic Toxicology publishes significant contributions that increase the understanding of the impact of harmful substances (including natural and synthetic chemicals) on aquatic organisms and ecosystems. Aquatic Toxicology considers both laboratory and field studies with a focus on freshwater/marine environments. The journal strives to attract high quality original scientific papers, critical reviews and expert opinion papers in the following areas: Effects of harmful substances on molecular, cellular, sub-organismal, organismal, population, community, and ecosystem level; Mechanisms of toxicity; Genetic disturbances, transgenerational effects, behavioral and adaptive responses; Impacts of harmful substances on structure, function of and services provided by aquatic ecosystems; Mixture and multiple toxicity assessment; Acute and chronic exposure; Environmental realistic scenarios; Impact of emerging substances and environmental pollutants of high actuality; Statistical approaches to predict exposure to and hazards of contaminants. The journal also considers manuscripts in other areas, such as the development of innovative concepts, approaches, and methodologies, which promote the wider application of toxicological datasets to the protection of aquatic environments and inform ecological risk assessments and decision making by relevant authorities. Aquatic Toxicology does not publish articles that focus on the health of aquaculture organisms associated with aquaculture practices, unless these studies enhance our understanding of the potential effects of chemical stressors associated with aquaculture (e.g. pesticides use, water quality degradation) on aquatic organisms and/or ecosystems. Aquatic Toxicology does not consider articles that focus on monitoring the presence of chemicals in the environment unless these studies further investigate the impacts of the chemicals on aquatic organisms and/or ecological systems. Furthermore, studies that characterize the potential risks of contaminated fish or other aquatic food products on humans or livestock are outside of the scope of the journal.

Impact: In addition to a vast readership, Current Opinion titles enjoy high citations, Impact Factors, and CiteScores. Discoverability: Articles get high visibility and maximum exposure on an industry-leading platform that reaches a vast, global audience.Selection of topics to be reviewed Editors, who are major authorities in the field, are approved by the Editors-in-Chief of the journal. They divide their sections into a number of topics, ensuring that the field is comprehensively covered and that all issues of current importance are emphasised. Editors commission reviews from authors on each topic that they have selected and arrange for the peer review process. The papers are reviewed by 2 independent reviewers.SubmissionsCurrent Opinion in Toxicology allows two ways to submit to the journal:Invitation – in accordance with the established procedure for all Current Opinion titles, andNEW – authors are given a “spontaneous submission option” via the pre-submission route, in order to fully open the journal to the authorship.Short Reviews Authors write short review articles (approx. 2500 words), in which they present recent developments in their subject, emphasising the aspects that, in their opinion, are most important. In addition, they provide short annotations to the papers that they consider to be most interesting from all those published in their topic over the 5 years.Editorial Overview For invitation only sections, Section Editors write a short overview at the beginning of the section, to introduce the reviews and to draw the reader's attention to any particularly interesting developments.Ethics in Publishing: General Statement The Editors and the Publisher of this journal believe that there are fundamental principles underlying scholarly and professional publishing. While this may not amount to a formal 'code of conduct', these fundamental principles with respect to the authors' paper, are that the paper should: i) be the authors' own original work, which has not been previously published elsewhere, ii) reflect the authors' own research and analysis and do so in a truthful and complete manner, iii) properly credit the meaningful contributions of co-authors and co-researchers, iv) not be submitted to more than one journal for consideration, and v) be appropriately placed in the context of prior and existing research. Of equal importance are ethical guidelines dealing with research methods and research funding, including issues dealing with informed consent, research subject privacy rights, conflicts of interest, and sources of funding. While it may not be possible to draft a 'code' that applies adequately to all instances and circumstances, we believe it useful to outline our expectations of authors and procedures that the journal will employ in the event of questions concerning author conduct. With respect to conflicts of interest, the Publisher now requires authors to declare any conflicts of interest that relate to papers accepted for publication in this journal. A conflict of interest may exist when an author or the author's institution has a financial or other relationship with other people or organizations that may inappropriately influence the author's work. A conflict can be actual or potential and full disclosure to the journal is the safest course. All submissions to the journal must include disclosure of all relationships that could be viewed as presenting a potential conflict of interest. The journal may use such information as a basis for editorial decisions and may publish such disclosures, if they are believed to be important to readers in judging the manuscript. A decision may be made by the journal not to publish on the basis of the declared conflict.For more information, please refer to: https://www.elsevier.com/conflictsofinterest.
