Accounting Open

ISSN: 3050-5461

Accounting Open is a fully open access journal publishing theoretical and empirical research contributing to the description, understanding, and prediction of accounting phenomena. We publish all research that adheres to accepted ethical standards, is rigorous, and addresses an important question (even if narrow). We do not evaluate manuscripts based on their novelty or potential impact. As such, the journal strongly encourages the submission of replications and studies reporting negative/null results.We encourage pre-registered studies and Registered Reports (i.e., peer-review on the basis of theory, methods, and planned data analysis before data has been collected). We welcome theoretical and empirical studies in all areas of accounting. Furthermore, we also publish systematic literature reviews (including meta-analyses), methods papers, simulations, commentaries (including critiques of other published papers), and papers introducing novel data, statistical packages, or other software useful for accounting researchers.As an open access journal, all articles are immediately and permanently available for authors and readers to read, download, cite, and share. All articles in Accounting Open are expected to adhere to best practices for open and transparent research, with publicly available, de-identified data, code, and materials to the fullest extent possible.

Climate Risk Management

ISSN: 2212-0963
5 Year impact factor: 5.1
Impact factor: 4.8

Climate Risk Management publishes original scientific contributions, state-of-the-art reviews and reports of practical experience on the use of knowledge and information regarding the consequences of climate variability and climate change in decision and policy making on climate change responses from the near- to long-term.The concept of climate risk management refers to activities and methods that are used by individuals, organizations, and institutions to facilitate climate-resilient decision-making. Its objective is to promote sustainable development by maximizing the beneficial impacts of climate change responses and minimizing negative impacts across the full spectrum of geographies and sectors that are potentially affected by the changing climate.Therefore, the scope of Climate Risk Management covers:Observed relationships between climate conditions and consequences in human and/or natural systems across multiple space and time scales;Risk assessment and risk management approaches for climate-sensitive sectors such as agriculture, forestry and fire management, health, mining, natural resources management, water management, the built environment, and tourism;Analysis of relevant institutional developments and arrangements relevant to adaptation; andExploration of connections between climate risk management, disaster risk management, and sustainable development.Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:The application of seasonal forecasting and regional climate change projections in the assessment of climate change vulnerability and risk;Capacity building;Infrastructure design;Management and systematic reduction of climate-induced hazards and disasters;Protection of lives, livelihoods and property;Mitigation of environmental damage;Sustainable resource use and production;Impacts, vulnerability and adaptation at individual, community and institutional levels;Regulatory risks associated with climate change;Climate-sensitive interactions between economic, environmental and social systems; andMonitoring and evaluation of climate risk management.Research papers should consider the practical application of the thesis advanced through case studies, experiments, or systematic comparisons with existing approaches. Special issues devoted to topics of particular interest will be published on an occasional basis, and proposals for such issues are invited. Submission of multi- and interdisciplinary studies, particularly those involving economics and the social sciences, is encouraged.Intending authors should also note that there is a complementary journal: Climate Services . Climate Services focuses solely on the use and usability of climate information for adaptation. It bridges the gap between information from climate change research and stakeholder action, and directly refers to how climate information can be applied in methodologies and tools for adaptation to climate change.

Computers & Operations Research

ISSN: 0305-0548
5 Year impact factor: 4.5
Impact factor: 4.1

Now incorporating Surveys in Operations Research & Management ScienceOperations research and computers interact in many scientific fields of vital importance to our society. These include, among others, transportation, economics, investment strategy, inventory control, logistics, safety, reliability, urban planning, and ecology. Computers & Operations Research (COR) provides an international forum for the application of computers and operations research techniques to problems in these and related fields.The common element in all the scientific areas that this Journal addresses is the need for some optimization methodology for determining viable solutions to problems, using computers and the techniques of operations research. However, it is not only the methodology which is of interest: the applications are of equal importance. The two are mutually supportive, since understanding the application helps one greatly to comprehend the optimization methods used, and vice versa.This Journal will therefore concern itself with these scientific fields of application, and will be accordingly broad in scope of subject matter. The form, content and language of the articles will take cognizance of this breadth of applications and of the consequent fact that many readers may not be expert in the scientific field to which the computer and operations research techniques are applied by the author.All full-length research papers must contain original research results, and demonstrate constructive algorithmic complexity and extensive numerical experiments. Numerical illustrations (examples) are not sufficient: the numerical experiments must have a scientific value of their own, particularly with comparisons to other approaches. In addition, the research performed should represent novel and significant work relative to the relevant literature. The use of real-world data is also valued.(Meta)heuristics (other than well-established algorithms such as evolutionary algorithms or ant colony optimization) must be described in metaphor-free language. This is a way to ensure that they are immediately comparable to existing algorithms. Moreover, this facilitates highlighting the algorithmic contributions to the literature.Computers & Operations Research now incorporates Surveys in Operations Research and Management Science. COR will therefore also publish state-of-the-art surveys and best practice guides in analytics, operations research, and management science, in a special Surveys section. These reviews of leading research in the field enable educators, researchers and students to obtain an overview of subjects of current interest, as well as important recent developments in established areas. Submissions can focus on theory or applications of OR/MS, and can be of several types, including but not limited to: (i) Results that are considered standards by experts in the community but which have not been documented in textbooks; (ii) Standard results which have been, in some way, streamlined such as, for example, new proof techniques leading to more elegant derivations of known results; (iii) New developments in methodology, or new application areas ('hot topics'). A review should be critical with respect to the existing knowledge and should focus on the computational and algorithmic aspects/developments. For more information on writing a contribution for the Surveys section of COR, please refer to What Makes a Good Survey?Computers & Operations Research also publishes focused issues on topics of interest related to its editorial mission. Such issues typically contain between six and twelve articles. They are put together within an eighteen-month period under the responsibility of one or several guest editors. Prospective guest editors are encouraged to contact the Editor-in-Chief.Computers & Operations Research does not endorse works investigating neither warfare optimization problems nor applications involving activities that might cause serious injuries or even death, regardless of the setting (offensive or defensive).It is the responsibility of the authors to ensure that the submitted manuscripts are written using proper English, that possible grammatical or spelling errors are eliminated and that the text conforms to correct scientific English. Submissions which do not satisfy these criteria may be rejected without being sent to reviewers.
