Landscape and Urban Planning

ISSN: 0169-2046
5 Year impact factor: 8.7
Impact factor: 7.9

An International Journal of Landscape Science, Planning and DesignLandscape and Urban Planning is an international journal aimed at advancing conceptual, scientific, and applied understandings of landscape in order to promote sustainable solutions for landscape change. Landscapes are visible and integrative social-ecological systems with variable spatial and temporal dimensions. They have expressive aesthetic, natural, and cultural qualities that are perceived and valued by people in multiple ways and invite actions resulting in landscape change. Landscapes are increasingly urban in nature and ecologically and culturally sensitive to changes at local through global scales. Multiple disciplines and perspectives are required to understand landscapes and align social and ecological values to ensure the sustainability of landscapes. The journal is based on the premise that landscape science linked to planning and design can provide mutually supportive outcomes for people and nature.Landscape science brings landscape ecology and urban ecology together with other disciplines and cross-disciplinary fields to identify patterns and understand social-ecological processes influencing landscape change. Landscape planning brings landscape architecture, urban and regional planning, landscape and ecological engineering, and other practice-oriented fields to bear in processes for identifying problems and analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating desirable alternatives for landscape change. Landscape design brings plans, designs, management prescriptions, policies and other activities and form-giving products to bear in effecting landscape change. The implementation of landscape planning and design also generates new patterns of evidence and hypotheses for further research, providing an integral link with landscape science and encouraging transdisciplinary collaborations to build robust knowledge and problem solving capacity.

Marine Chemistry

ISSN: 0304-4203
5 Year impact factor: 3.3
Impact factor: 3

An International Journal for Studies of all Chemical Aspects of the Marine EnvironmentMarine Chemistry is an international medium for the publication of original studies and occasional reviews in the field of chemistry in the marine environment, with emphasis on the dynamic approach. The journal endeavours to cover all aspects, from chemical processes to theoretical and experimental work, and, by providing a central channel of communication, to speed the flow of information in this relatively new and rapidly expanding discipline.Marine Chemistry publishes the following article types:Research Paper - provides novel original data on a research topic in Marine Chemistry. These articles should strive to be transformative and broad-reaching in their scope.Review Article - provides an extensive literature-based perspective on a topic in mare Chemistry. These article typically do not contain original data, if they are used to develop a broader scope of synthesis.Perspective Article - provides a unique a viewpoint on an important research area in Marine Chemistry. These articles can be on past, current, and/or future trends, but differ from a Review Article in that they include an objective personal view on how this research has changed or perhaps should change. Perspective articles are solicited by the Editors, but unsolicited contributions are also welcome.Technical Note - Notes are shorter versions of Research Papers that provide new data on new techniques but also can present exciting new results that the authors believe stands alone at an early stage in development.Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission.

Marine Pollution Bulletin is concerned with the rational use of maritime and marine resources in estuaries, the seas and oceans, as well as with documenting marine pollution and introducing new forms of measurement and analysis. A wide range of topics are discussed not only on effluent disposal and pollution control, but also on the management, economic aspects and protection of the marine environment in general.Papers published may include, but are not limited to:Marine debris and litter study and managementOil spills and their ecological impactsChemical pollution (including inorganic and organic contaminants, e.g., heavy metals, Persistent Organic Pollutants) in marine environmentsMicroplastics and their effectsPollution from shipping and maritime activitiesEutrophication and its consequences on marine ecosystemsHarmful algal blooms (HABs) and their impactsAcidification of oceans due to carbon dioxide absorptionNoise pollution in marine environments and its effects on marine lifePollution from coastal development and runoffRadioactive contamination in marine environmentsEmerging pollutants and their effects on marine ecosystemsPollution from aquaculture and mariculture operationsGlobal initiatives and policies for mitigating marine pollutionUsing artificial intelligence to assess marine environmental conditions and/or to provide policy decisions.A distinctive feature of Marine Pollution Bulletin is the number of different categories of articles which are published: 1. Research Papers form the core of the journal, with a typical length of 6000 words and a maximum of 10000 words. 2. Reviews are between 8000 and 20000 words, on topics cross traditional lines. 3. Short Communications are short research papers, with a typical length of 3000 words, and a maximum of 5000 words, 3 Figures or Tables. 4. Baseline Papers are less than 5000 words, contain an abstract and keywords, brief introductory remarks, methodology with mandatory quality assurance and quality control information, results and short discussion but do not have sections or subsections. These papers are baselines related with marine pollution (including toxicant levels; ecological and ecotoxicological data) and must bring original data and information to support a better understanding of marine environmental issues. 5. Micro Articles are very short papers, less than 3000 words or 2 pages. They must consist of a single, but well-described piece of information, namely: • Original Data and/or a plot plus a description • Description of a new method, experiment or instrumentation •Descriptive case study 6. Perspective papers discuss about subjective positions, viewpoints or new concepts within less than 2000 words.Marine Pollution Bulletin does not publish articles that present only model development or processes in water treatment plants.
