The Journal of Arid Environments is an international journal publishing high-quality research papers that provide original insights into critical scientific, environmental, ecological, and people-nature issues in the world's drylands. The journal recognises the value of interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary approaches to investigate and better understand the complex scientific and societal issues facing the world's drylands, as well as original single-discipline research. Papers must represent rigorous research from and specifically relevant to hyper-arid, arid, semi-arid or dry-subhumid environments, into past, present, or future conditions.Papers must have international relevance, and address clearly stated aims, hypotheses, or research questions. The journal does not accept case studies. A case study is a report or research that applies existing knowledge to a specific context or place, and does not advance knowledge or its research field sufficiently to have appeal to an international audience.

The Journal of Environmental Management (JEM) is a premier, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing the understanding and application of environmental management practices. Our mission is to disseminate high-quality, original research that contributes to the effective management of environmental systems and the enhancement of environmental quality. Environmental management encompasses the systematic approach to dealing with environmental issues through planning, controlling, monitoring, and improving the interactions between human activities and the natural environment. This includes strategies for sustainable use of resources, pollution control, conservation of biodiversity, and mitigation of environmental impacts. We invite submissions that demonstrate a clear connection to practical environmental management applications with interest, novelty, and impact relevant to an international audience. Specific areas of interest for each Section:Section I: Environmental Assessment and MonitoringThis section covers methodologies and techniques for environmental analysis and assessment, including environmental impact assessments, risk assessments, life cycle analyses, and the development of new procedures for environmental quality management.

We also currently discourage submissions based solely on bibliometric analysis, aggregate econometrics, or qualitative social science. Submission of critical review and discussion articles is allowed, but such submissions must succinctly provide critical insights and novel thoughts that advance the field of environmental management in a specific topic area. Reviews that are overly lengthy (e.g., in the form of a traditional textbook, thesis, or dissertation-style literature review) or that simply summarize existing literature without providing novel, practical insights will generally be desk-rejected by an executive editor.Authors will be asked to provide a novelty and relevance statement indicating how the results are deemed to be original with respect to the state-of-the-art in the field, relevant and essential to the advance of knowledge on environmental management and applicable to a wider audience and wider contexts.Journal of Environmental Management is the companion title to the open access journal Environmental Challenges.We encourage those interested in organizing a special issue or a virtual special issue within the scope of the journal to fill out this form and contact Prof. Peter Hooda for more information. Additionally, we encourage potential organizers to carefully review the relevant requirements in the Guide for Authors before proceeding.
