Aquatic Botany
An International Scientific Journal dealing with Applied and Fundamental Research on Macroscopic Submerged, Floating and Emergent Plants in Marine and Freshwater EcosystemsAquatic Botany offers a platform for papers relevant to a broad international readership on fundamental and applied aspects of marine and freshwater macroscopic plants in a context of ecology or environmental biology. This includes molecular, biochemical and physiological aspects of macroscopic aquatic plants as well as the classification, structure, function, dynamics and ecological interactions in plant-dominated aquatic communities and ecosystems. It is an outlet for papers dealing with research on the consequences of disturbance and stressors (e.g. environmental fluctuations and climate change, pollution, grazing and pathogens), use and management of aquatic plants (plant production and decomposition, commercial harvest, plant control) and the conservation of aquatic plant communities (breeding, transplantation and restoration). Specialized publications on certain rare taxa or papers on aquatic macroscopic plants from under-represented regions in the world can also find their place, subject to editor evaluation. Studies on fungi or microalgae will remain outside the scope of Aquatic Botany.Interesting for further reading:Editorial: What is a plant? and what is aquatic botany?Elisabeth M.

Geotextiles and Geomembranes
An official Journal of the International Geosynthetics SocietyGeotextiles are permeable fabrics which, when used in association with soil, have the ability to separate, filter, reinforce, protect or drain. As the use of geotextile fabrics has expanded there has been the introduction of geotextile composites and the development of products such as geogrids and meshes. Overall these materials are referred to as geotextiles and related products. All have a wide range of applications and are currently used to advantage in many civil engineering applications including roads, airfields, railroads, embankments, retaining structures, reservoirs, canals, dams, bank protection and coastal engineering.Geomembr... are impermeable membranes used widely as cut-offs and liners. Until recent years, geomembranes were used mostly as canal and pond liners; however, one of the largest current applications is to the containment of hazardous or municipal wastes and their leachates. In many of these applications geomembranes are employed with geotextile or mesh underliners which reinforce or protect the more flexible geomembrane whilst also acting as an escape route for gases and leachates generated in certain wastes.The range of products and their applications has expanded rapidly over the last decade with geotextiles and geomembranes being specified world wide. This rapid growth is paralleled by a virtual explosion of technology. Current reference books and even manufacturers' sponsored publications tend to date very quickly and the need for a vehicle to bring together and discuss the growing body of technology now available has become evident.Geotextiles and Geomembranes fills this need and provides a forum for the dissemination of information amongst research workers, designers, users and manufacturers. By providing a growing fund of information the journal increases general awareness, prompts further research and assists in the establishment of international codes and regulations.Types of Contribution: Refereed technical papers covering research, design, construction, applications and case studies; technical notes, professional practice papers, book reviews, reports of conferences and meetings, and letters to the Editor. All technical papers are open to written discussion. No limit to length is set and short notes are acceptable. Review articles may also be published at intervals, but the subject and contents of these should be discussed first with the Editor.- ISSN: 0266-1144

Broad material science and corrosion studies without a focus on naval architecture or offshore engineering are also outside the journal's scope. Furthermore, the journal does not consider studies related to wind turbines unless there is a direct application to offshore engineering (such as offshore wind turbines). Research focusing on the mechanics of robotic devices or wireless power transfer systems also falls outside the journal’s scope.Additionally, Ocean Engineering does not accept submissions focusing solely on military applications, including dual-use submissions such as navigation of AUVs for military purposes, the design of propulsion systems and operational conditions related to stealth techniques. While the journal is currently open to papers on submarine hydrodynamics, it must be ensured that no sensitive or military-related content is included. The aim of any manuscript submitted to Ocean Engineering should be the worldwide dissemination of scientific knowledge, focusing on civilian applications that advance the broader field of ocean and maritime engineering.*Authors are requested to complete a Review Proposal Form for Editorial approval prior to submission of the review article.

A manuscript will not be accepted for review without a GitHub repository or equivalent public repository that is properly documented and enables evaluation, reuse, and long-term utility to the community.there needs to be a link to the repository in the manuscript and at a minimum, the repository must include:a clear license;a ReadMe file in English with basic usage and installation instructions;documen... of dependencies and computational requirements;suffici... material to reproduce the main results in the paper, or a clear explanation of any justified limitations if data cannot be shared, a dummy model or a synthetic dataset for test cases should be providedhow-to files or tutorials for typical use cases;a user guide describing inputs, outputs, options, and expected behaviour; and for security reasons, a single compacted file is not accepted (e.g. .zip, .rar, .7z)any comments in the code must be in EnglishRepositories that are incomplete, poorly documented, inaccessible, private at the review or acceptance stage, or lacking reproducible examples are grounds for rejection. Manuscripts describing software that is not open source are normally desk rejected.Computers & Geosciences will not consider manuscripts that fall into any of the following categories:geoscienc... studies with no genuine computational or informatics innovation;computer science or informatics papers with no clear and substantive geoscientific contribution;routine application of established methods, software, machine learning models, GIS workflows, or visualization tools to a case study;incremental code implementations of already published methods without a clear methodological or software advance;manuscripts focused mainly on engineering design, operational management, consultancy-style case studies, or site-specific technical problem solving rather than geoscientific insight of broader relevance;papers in which the computational element is peripheral, cosmetic, or limited to software packaging or interface development;purely methodological developments (e.g. geophysics, hydrology) purely analytical developments unless they have significant implications on computational geoscientific problemspure case studies and application examples less they have significant implications on computational geoscientific problemsGUI papers unless the interface itself solves a significant, non-trivial scientific-computing problem;benchmark or comparison papers lacking novelty, reproducibility, or transferable insight;papers whose results cannot be independently evaluated because code, workflow details, trained models, key parameters, or supporting data are unavailable; andmanuscripts generated around black-box tools or proprietary workflows with insufficient transparency for scientific scrutiny.Submissions should make clear, from the title, abstract, and introduction onward, what is new computationally, what is new geoscientifically, and why both matter.Manuscripts better aligned with applied implementation, software deployment, or practical case studies may be more suitable for the companion journal Applied Computing & Geosciences.- ISSN: 0098-3004
Deep-Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers
The journal is concerned with fundamental oceanography of the deep sea in the broadest sense. This includes, ocean physics including circulation, waves, turbulence, thermodynamics, optics, acoustics, mixing, or other process studies, atmosphere ocean coupling, primary production, organic carbon fluxes, chemistry, palaeoceanography, geophysics, sedimentology, all aspects of biology from microbes to marine mammals, physiology, ecology, biogeography, evolution, behaviour and anthropological impacts.The deep sea is interpreted to be the ocean beyond the continental shelf. Papers dealing exclusively with areas inshore of the shelf break are in general more appropriate to our companion journal Continental Shelf Research.Instruments and Methods papers can describe novel hardware, vehicles, research vessels, instrumentation, sensors (physical, chemical or biological), survey methods, analysis and calibration methods as well as software and novel data-analysis techniques but with the caveat of evidence of successful use in oceanography. We do not accept applied science/technology papers on deep-sea mining, drilling, bio-prospecting or management of fish stocks in which the aim is not oceanographic research. In biological papers, we welcome descriptions of new species but these should be in the context of advancing knowledge of ecology, evolution and biogeography in the deep sea; purely taxonomic papers should be submitted to a specialist journal.Deep-Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, considers four types of paper: Research Papers: These should report results of original scientific research, including theoretical work of evident oceanographic applicability. To encourage full reporting of complex studies there is no formal length limit on research papers but editors and reviewers will discourage excessive verbosity and repetition.Instrumen... and Methods: These should report novel solutions of instrumental or methodological problems with evidence of successful use. There is no length limit.Short Communication: These can be reports of novel research or instruments and methods and should not contain more than 4,000 words and no more than 3 figures and 1 table.Reviews: The journal welcomes suggestions for reviews synthesising knowledge of any aspect of the deep sea. These reviews should be approximately 12,000 words in length and suggestions should be discussed with the Editors-in-Chief.Spe... Collections of papers: Proposals for special topic issues should be directed to our sister journal: Deep-Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography. However, this journal can publish collections of up to 5 papers that address a special topic that are insufficient to fill a whole journal volume. Proposals for special collections should be discussed with an Editor-in-Chief. The proponent of a special collection may be appointed as a Special Section Guest Editor. Papers can be submitted in any order and at any time and will be handled in the normal way by the guest editor or established editors. Each paper will be published on-line as soon as it is accepted. When the final paper in the collection is accepted then the entire collection will be assigned to a volume and authors may suggest a cover image. Papers in a collection should be numbered consecutively with a short main title and more extensive subtitle. E.g. Ocean carbon fluxes 1: xxxxxxx, Ocean fluxes 2: yyyyyyyyyy. Each paper in the collection should be a self-standing and can be a Research Paper, Instruments and methods paper, Short Communication or Review. Guest editors may add an editorial introducing the section.For all papers, supplemental matter, such as extensive data tables or graphs and multimedia content, may be published as electronic appendices. Deposition of data, gene sequences and type specimens:This journal encourages sharing of data (see section on research data below) and recommends that data be placed in appropriate repositories or included in the supplemental matter submitted with the paper. New gene sequences should be deposited in the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank database. Type specimens should be deposited in the appropriate national or international public museum or collection. Accession numbers of gene sequences and type specimens must be included in the final version of the manuscript and cannot be added at the proof stage.- ISSN: 0967-0637

Perspective articles cannot be longer than 4,000 words, with up to 5 figures/tables and 50 references); orComments and Editorials (letters to the Editor about the journal or commenting on previously published papers; editorials, mainly after an invitation by the Editorial Advisory Board). ... All articles, except correspondence, will be peer-reviewed and should be of high scientific level.* Journal paper submissions based on past conference publications are only allowed if the submitted manuscript is significantly extended or otherwise enhanced. That is, the journal article will only be considered if more extensive experiments and discussion are presented (even if the same methods are used) and/or the methods have been significantly improved and/or advanced (even if the same datasets have been used). The burden of explicitly describing the differences between these publications rests with the author(s). In case of a strong overlap with another publication, the manuscript should be rejected.P&RS issues may be devoted to specific scientific topics of high or increasing importance (Theme Issues), especially in relation to one or more ISPRS Working Groups, as well as to special events, geographic regions, professional activities etc. The number and topics of Theme Issues will be such that the P&RS still remains of interest to the majority of its subscribers.For more details on the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, visit http://www.isprs.org...- ISSN: 0924-2716
Marine Geology
Marine Geology is the journal on marine geological processes in the broadest sense. It seeks papers that are comprehensive, interdisciplinary and synthetic that will be lasting contributions to the field. Papers must demonstrate new findings and their context and significance discussed in terms of the international literature.Marine Geology accepts papers on subjects as diverse as seafloor hydrothermal systems, beach dynamics, early diagenesis, microbiological studies in sediments, palaeoclimate studies and geophysical studies of the seabed. Papers that address emerging new fields, for example the influence of anthropogenic processes on coastal and marine geology are particularly welcomed.The papers should be concerned with the coastal and marine realm in the broad sense and should deal with rocks, sediments, landforms (sedimentology, geomorphology, geoarchaeology, geochemistry), the physical and chemical and biological processes affecting them, and the characteristics and evolution of the processes/mechanisms as revealed by sedimentary archives.Papers should address scientific hypotheses: data compilations, including 'big data' and datasets of global significance, and papers that deal with marine management and risk assessment, sustainability issues, and hydrocarbon reservoir characterisation may be submitted to the journal on the condition that they demonstrate a close and clear relationship between these issues and coastal/marine geological processes and deposits. Papers on laboratory or modelling studies must demonstrate direct relevance to marine processes or deposits. Papers dealing with coastal deposits now on land may be accepted on condition that these deposits show continuity with, and their interpretation is relevant to, coastal and marine processes. Papers dealing with continental deposits that do not correspond to these criteria and must be submitted to other journals. The primary criteria for acceptance of papers include that the science is of high quality, novel, significant, and of broad international interest.- ISSN: 0025-3227

Marine Micropaleontology
Marine Micropaleontology is an international journal publishing original, innovative and significant scientific papers in all fields related to marine microfossils, including ecology and paleoecology, biology and paleobiology, paleoceanography and paleoclimatology, environmental monitoring, taphonomy, evolution and molecular phylogeny. The journal strongly encourages the publication of articles in which marine microfossils and/or their chemical composition are used to solve fundamental geological, environmental and biological problems. However, it does not publish purely stratigraphic or taxonomic papers. In Marine Micropaleontology, a special section is dedicated to short papers on new methods and protocols using marine microfossils. We solicit special issues on hot topics in marine micropaleontology and review articles on timely subjects.This journal welcomes contributions that support and advance the UN's sustainable development goals, in particular SDG 13, (Climate Action) and SDG 14 (Life below water)- ISSN: 0377-8398

Agricultural and Forest Meteorology
Agricultural and Forest Meteorology is an international journal dedicated to advancing the science of land-atmosphere interactions across agriculture, forests and other terrestrial systems (e.g. wetlands, tundra, urban environments). Manuscripts considered by Agricultural and Forest Meteorology for publication must include both of the following:Strong atmospheric components such as meteorological, micrometeorological, or climate-related processesDemonstrate how these atmospheric processes interact with the terrestrial surfaceThe journal’s scope includes research that applies micrometeorological theory, develops and evaluates novel instrumentation (e.g., sensors for trace gas measurements, flux measurement systems, radiation instrumentation), advances remote- and proximal-sensing approaches (e.g. satellite observations, UAV-based sensors), or employs models that represent land-atmosphere interactions (e.g. soil-vegetation-atmo... transfer models, data-fusion frameworks and physically guided machine learning models). These tools and approaches are applied to address research questions in the following areas:Energy, momentum, mass and trace gas exchange between ecosystems and the atmosphere, including their role in biogeochemical cycles (e.g. carbon, nitrogen) and water cycles (e.g. evapotranspiration)E... phenology and physiology Radiative transfer, water interception, turbulence and microclimate in vegetation canopiesAerobiology (e.g. the dispersion of pollen, spores, microorganisms, insects and pesticides)Impacts of climate variability and climate change on land-atmosphere interactions Impact of land use, land use change, and disturbances such as fire on land-atmosphere interactions Regional and global land-atmosphere feedbacksThe following submissions are discouraged:Studies that do not focus on the inter-relationship of concepts in meteorology and ecosystemsStudies reporting on climate trends without consideration of the impacts of such trends on ecosystemsDendrochro... and climate reconstruction studies that do not relate to land-atmosphere interactionsRemote sensing studies that report solely on methodology or on vegetation trends such as greeningSoil or plant focused studies that merely report weather or climate variables without investigating land-atmosphere interactionsSoil microbial ecology studiesStudies of the effects of management practices (e.g. mulching), soil processes or soil properties on respiration or greenhouse gas fluxes, without a strong atmospheric componentStudies of plant physiology, chemistry or genetics, without a strong atmospheric componentHydrologica... studies that are not primarily concerned with water vapour transfer to or from the atmosphereStudies of potential evaporation that do not also consider actual evaporationStudies conducted exclusively in controlled environments (e.g. growth chambers, incubators, wind tunnels, greenhouses)Design, technology and operation of greenhouses or other plant-growing facilitiesStudies based on data products or theoretical modelling studies that do not test model predictions against experimental data except for very novel models that target processes for which measurements are not yet possibleMachine-lear... studies that are limited in their results to a specific geographic region, without novel methodology or novel physical understandingNote that solely considering climate variables such as air temperature, precipitation etc., does not constitute the study of land-atmosphere interactions and as such are discouraged.All submissions will only be considered for publication if they clearly advance knowledge on land-atmosphere interactions or propose novel methods to study these interactions.- ISSN: 0168-1923
Earth-Science Reviews
Covering a much wider field than the usual specialist journals, Earth-Science Reviews publishes review articles dealing with all aspects of the Earth Sciences, and is an important vehicle for allowing readers to see their particular interest related to the Earth Sciences as a whole. Our readership is more diverse than that of specialist journals. The editors strive to ensure that reviews, even those that may otherwise appear in discipline journals, are accessible for all readers. Review articles must integrate and advance existing knowledge and highlight new directions by synthesizing, evaluating and discussing previously published literature; the value of such articles is also increased by authors’ own perspectives and comment. Review articles should be authoritative. They may also constitute a detailed introduction to/overview of a subject in a way that, for example, enables a researcher or graduate student to begin work in a new field. Articles may be extensive, providing comprehensive coverage of a broad or cross-disciplinary subject, or they may be shorter yet provide an in-depth overview of a very specific topic. Authors may also include a small proportion of their own new data and analysis, both to demonstrate what is being done at the forefront of an area and to support their arguments, yet regular research articles will not be considered.Submissio... that aggregate previous literature and do not integrate and build on existing knowledge are unlikely to be accepted. Similarly, meta-analyses that do not include a significant review component in the way described above are also unlikely to be accepted. Bibliometric studies will not be considered. Where it is necessary to include bibliometric data in a review, that part of the article must be included in the supplementary information only. Regular research articles are only included in the occasional special issue, where the collection of papers together performs a review function. Review articles that are in practice regular research papers or case studies and that are not in a special issue will not be peer reviewed but will instead be recommended for discipline journals; a transfer option will enable such papers to be transferred quickly and easily to a discipline journal of the author’s choice. Articles on the biological, ecological, soil and agricultural sciences and on geoengineering should be submitted to journals in those fields. Earth-Science Reviews offers authors the rare opportunity to explore a particular subject without any limitation on the number of words used. We do however encourage authors to adopt a writing style which balances conciseness with the need to do justice to their subject. Therefore, authors of review articles in excess of around 20,000 words should first discuss their idea by email with one of the journal editors, copied to Tim Horscroft, Review Papers Coordinator/Managing Editor (timothy.horscroft@e... to ensure the project's suitability for potential publication.Illustra... must be actual figures (maps, profiles, graphs, photos etc) and not repetitions in graphical form of the text. All figure captions, especially where the figure is from the literature, must state the message of the figure and not only be a statement of its content. This is especially important, in providing a service to the reader, in a review paper that uses illustrations from difficult to access sources. Figure captions must be placed beneath each figure and can also be listed separately.From time to time, reviews on topics of exceptional or current interest, and of an exceptional standard, will be invited by the editors. These will be peer-reviewed in the same way as all articles. Invited reviews are published with the heading Invited Review.The following are examples of what the editors consider good illustrations of the types of review articles that Earth-Science Reviews hopes to publish:Earth’s clay mineral inventory and its climate interaction: A quantitative assessmentLandform-r... patterns of Northwestern Africa: Deciphering Cenozoic surface dynamics of the tropical cratonic geosystem Strontium (87Sr/86Sr) mapping: A critical review of methods and approaches Exploring the multiple land degradation pathways across the planet Glacial terminations or glacial interruptions?
