Pharmacological Research - Natural Products
Pharmacological Research - Natural Products (PRENAP) publishes original, replications (if relevant for the scientific community), and follow-up studies, as well as scope and systematic reviews and meta-analysis, of the pharmacological and toxicological properties of extracts and single molecules of natural origin, either isolated or synthesized, and its derivatives. PRENAP also welcomes pre-registration (phase-I) and phase-II registered reports in the field.The journal scope covers all fields of pharmacology and toxicology (experimental and clinical), pharmacognosy, ethnopharmacology, and phytochemistry of natural products.PRENAP is a sound-science journal, therefore novelty and perceived impact will not be considered in the evaluation process. However, the journal will focus on quality studies that advance our knowledge and will take measures to guarantee the replicability of the published material.Pharmacolog... Research - Natural Products (PRENAP) is an independent companion journal and a spin-off from Pharmacological Research (Pharmacol Res). It is part of the Pharmacological Research Family of Journals. PRENAP has an independent editorial team, a different publishing model (hybrid), and will be indexed differently.- ISSN: 2950-1997

Forest Policy and Economics
Forest Policy and Economics is the leading hub for social sciences research on forests. It developed into a globally leading scientific journal that publishes peer-reviewed policy and economics research relating to forests, forested landscapes, forest-related industries, and other forest-relevant land uses. It also welcomes contributions from other social sciences and humanities perspectives. These disciplines include, but are not limited to, sociology, anthropology, human geography, history, jurisprudence, planning, development studies, and psychology research on forests. We only welcome works that make clear theoretical, conceptual or methodological contributions to the existing state-of-the-art literature. This includes a systematic positioning of works in recent international literatures. We, hence, discourage simple case studies, surveys, consultancy works or reports, which do not make such universal contributions and which do not reflect beyond the individual case.Forest Policy and Economics is global in scope and acceptance for publication is subject to a double-blind peer-review process. The journal publishes the following, article types, all of which are peer-reviewed and fully citable: Regular research articles are full-length original scientific publications based on clearly defined methods and adequate dataReview articles provide a systematic, analytical, and global overview of a specific field of scientific literature based on the systematic analysis of a well-defined body of existing international publicationsSpecial Issues consist of a collection of articles resulting from previous scientific exchange among a group. Potential Guest Editors are invited to submit 1-3 page proposals for Special Issues, including envisaged contributions, to [email protected]... Commentaries are science-based, peer-reviewed, short communications formulated as one of the following types:Science Critiques critically discuss previous research published in our journal or in other high-impact outlets.Research Trends (including book reviews) identify emerging empirical phenomena and issues of importance that should be addressed by future research.Policy Forum are short commentary pieces on contemporary, internationally relevant forest or forest-related policy issues that enable researchers, policy makers, and practitioners to make timely contributions to policy debates.- ISSN: 1389-9341
Urban Forestry & Urban Greening
Urban Forestry and Urban Greening is a refereed, international journal aimed at presenting high-quality research with urban and peri-urban woody and non-woody vegetation and its use, planning, design, establishment and management as its main topics.

Contributions should focus on one or more of the following aspects:Form, functions, and ecosystem services of urban forests and other vegetation, including aspects of urban environmental science and urban ecology.Policy-makin... planning and design related to urban forests and other vegetation.Selection and establishment of tree resources and other vegetation for urban environments.Managem... of urban forests and other vegetation.The ecosystem services urban vegetation provides.Original contributions of a high academic standard are invited from a wide range of disciplines and fields, including forestry, biology, horticulture, arboriculture, landscape ecology, pathology, soil science, hydrology, landscape architecture, landscape planning, urban planning and design, environmental/ecolog... economics, environmental sociology, environmental psychology, public health, and education.Special attention will be given to interdisciplinary research as developed under the approaches of, for example, urban forestry, arboriculture, urban greening, urban ecology, urban health, urban agriculture, urban horticulture, urban silviculture, and community forestry.For field research or descriptive studies, a robust dataset made of multiple dates of measurement conducted over different growing seasons is required for publication. For research conducted under controlled conditions or research conducted using a mechanistic approach, multiple sampling dates are still required, although monitoring can be conducted over shorter time periods.- ISSN: 1618-8667
