Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety is a multi-disciplinary journal that focuses on understanding the exposure and effects of environmental contamination on organisms including human health. The scope of the journal covers three main themes. The topics within these themes, indicated below, include (but are not limited to) the following:Ecotoxicol... and terrestrial ecotoxicology of organisms including microbes, invertebrates, vertebrate animals and plants. Also, mesocosm or field studies informing on fate and effects.Mechanistic studies relating exposure, bioavailability and effects.Molecular to whole organism studies, including animal behaviour and population effects.Methods in ecotoxicology that address modes of action including omics, systems biology, quantitative measurements in living cells/tissues, biomarkers, histopathology, ecophysiology.Enviro... ChemistrySoil, sediment and water chemistry that explains the fate, behaviour, sinks and effects of toxic substances such as metals, industrial and agrochemicals, nanomaterials, plastics and emerging contaminants.Mechani... studies that identify source apportionment, spatial or temporal distribution of toxic substances, chemical speciation, persistence and transformations in the environment.Mixtures effects and interaction with environmental factors such as pH, organic matter, temperature and salinity.Mechanistic studies on remediation of wastewater and sludge, on biosorbants, biochars, green chemistry, chemical sensors and biosensor technology.Environme... SafetyEpidemiologica... studies linking environmental contamination to human health effects.Molecular mechanism-based environmental toxicological studies using cell or animal models to evaluate hazards of air pollution, groundwater and drinking water contaminations, and environmental health and safety impacts from persistent toxic substances in the environment and food chain.Mechanistic elucidation of detrimental effects upon exposure to various contaminants at cellular and molecular levels and novel method development for ecotoxicological and environmental toxicological research.Evaluation of exposure, toxicity, and environmental risk using computational methods, such as big data, machine learning, and quantitative structure toxicity relationship modeling.The journal publishes hypothesis- or observation-driven research, with emphasis on mechanistic understanding and/or reporting new phenomena. Therefore, the following types of routine reports are out of scope of the journal and should NOT be submitted:Routine monitoring-style reports of pollutant concentration in the environment or biota with a narrow spectrum or local/ regional focus, Routine measurements of biomolecules in an organism without mechanistic studies or an experimental context, Routine reports of adsorption isotherms, catalytic reactions, remediation method, and other very well-known phenomena of chemicals or materials, Studies on general environmental parameters that affect the physiology of organisms, such as salt or draught effects on plants without an environmental pollution aspect to study design, Agronomy studies, natural geochemistry studies, and animal biology studies that do not have an environmental contamination aspect to the research, Research addressing simple plant physiological and growth parameters, or on overlapping topics or the extensions of already published articles, Manuscripts related to simple correlations between pollutants and health problems.

Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology (Dr Pierre Sicard)The section targets studies on the discovery, presence, behaviour, fate and distribution of anthropogenic substances in all environmental compartments and processes including air, soil, sediment, water and biota as well as in associated technospheres, atmospheres and ecospheres. However, studies that are purely method developmental with no focus on environmental application, are site-/region-specifi... and/or are case studies are not considered. The section also focuses on ecotoxicology and environmental toxicology in wildlife and other biota but does not include toxicology studies that are controlled and laboratory-based.Air... soil, sediment, water and biota chemical pollutants Bioconcentration, bioaccumulation and biomagnificationBiot... and environmental fateContaminant behaviour and environmental processesEcotoxicolo... and environmental toxicologyMarine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystemsEnvironmen... Epidemiology and Human Health (Dr Payam Dadvand)This section covers the human health and wellbeing effects of environmental factors, mainly based on observational or experimental epidemiological studies on human participants. Please note that in vivo (e.g., animal studies) and in vitro toxicological studies do not belong to this section and should be submitted under the Toxicology section.Topics of specific interest include, but are not limited to, human health and wellbeing effects of:Ambient and indoor air, water, soil, noise, light at night, and radiation pollutionOrganic and inorganic chemicals (e.g. endocrine disruptors, pesticides, metals etc.).

Environmental Materials Technology (Professor Grzegorz Lisak)The Environmental Materials Technology (EMT) section invites studies with focus on development and application of new materials relevant to environmental protection and mitigation measures, environmental engineering, sustainable development and built environment. EMT section welcomes research articles, critical review articles and short communications that have high environmental relevance, scientific novelty and significance. Topics of specific interest include, but not limited to, are:Materials with applications in soil, water-loop, and air pollution controlWaste-derived materials and their applications in sustainable development and built environmentMaterials for greenhouse gases mitigation measures Materials for engineering environmentally relevant natural sinks Environmental assessment of materialsSubmissions without clear environmental relevance or research context will not be considered for publication in the EMT sectionEnvironmental Process Technology (Professor Aijie Wang)The Environmental Process Technology (EPT) section publishes studies which focus on reduction of pollutants and remediation of impaired environments. EPT section welcomes research articles, review articles and short communications that have high environmental relevance, scientific novelty and significance. Topics of specific interest include, but not limited to, are: Water Pollution Control Technology Air Pollution Control Technology Soil Pollution Control Technology Solid Waste Management and recycle Technology Eco-technology and Environmental Micro-biotechnology Environmental Management and Risk Control Technology Submissions without clear environmental relevance or research context will not be considered for publication in the EPT section. Toxicology (Dr Johan Øvrevik)The section targets controlled, laboratory-based studies on all aspects of toxicological effects from anthropogenic substances from all environmental compartments including air, soil, sediment, water, and food. Studies that provide new insight into safe/harmful exposure levels of environmental pollutants, contribute to identification of new harmful effects, and/or disentangle effects of complex mixtures including exposome effects are prioritized. Justification of exposure concentrations/doses are required. The section encourages assessment of environmentally relevant exposure levels and/or inclusion of dose-respons assessment to underpin risk assessment processes. The section also welcome controlled studies to address toxicokinetic and realistic target tissue doses, and studies providing causality to exposure-effect associations from epidemiological or environmental observations.Air, soil, sediment, water and food chemical pollutants and healthToxicokinetics and toxicodynamicsEffect... of chemical mixtures and complex exposuresEmerging contaminants and novel effectsRisk assessmentCausation evaluationNaturally occurring toxins are not a prioritized topic, unless their effects are clearly linked to consequences of anthropogenic activities such as climate change or eutrophication. Studies that are purely method developmental with no focus on environmental application, are site-/region-specifi... are based on single high-dose exposure without environmental relevance, and/or are case studies are not considered. The focus of the journal generally excludes papers that report results of toxicological effects of consumer products, such as tobacco and nicotine products, as well as occupational exposures, unless these papers have clear relevance to environmental topics.
