APPLIED VEGETATION SCIENCE

AUTHOR GUIDELINES

1. AIMS AND SCOPE

Applied Vegetation Science publishes studies of plant communities that are relevant for human interaction with vegetation, including topics such as conservation, management and restoration of plant communities and natural habitats, effects of global change on plant communities, and the planning of semi-natural and urban landscapes. The journal also publishes vegetation classification and survey studies of international interest. Papers on plant communities which do not fit to this scope (do not have an applied aspect and are not vegetation classification or survey) should be directed to our associate journal, the Journal of Vegetation Science. Papers on the ecology of a single species can be considered only if this species plays a key role in structuring plant communities. Papers based on remote sensing and papers on ecosystem functions of vegetation can be considered if they focus on species or functional diversity or composition of plant communities.

2. MANUSCRIPT CATEGORIES

Article Types

Research Article. This category includes description of vegetation patterns or processes, experiment, simulation, theory, description of a new method, or any combination of those. The length of these papers should be up to 8000 words, including References but excluding electronic Supplementary Information. The submission of longer papers can be accepted on the basis of sound explanation given in the cover letter. Shorter papers can be managed and published faster. Online supplementary files may be used for less essential text, tables or figures.

Synthesis. Reviews of a topic that produce new ideas or conclusions (and are not merely summaries of the previous literature) can be published as Syntheses, which may be longer than Research Articles, but the length must be justified by the content of interest. Authors having ideas for potential Synthesis papers can contact the Chief Editors to discuss the suitability of the topic.

Methodological Article. These papers describe (1) newly developed methods of vegetation sampling or analysis; (2) tests of the performance of traditional or new methods on the basis of case studies with real data or simulations; (3) demonstrations of the applications in vegetation science of methods developed in other fields. The length requirements for this paper type are the same as for Research Articles.

Vegetation Survey. Papers focused on vegetation classification of plant communities based on species composition and surveys of regional diversity of vegetation types, especially in an international context or covering large areas. Vegetation Survey papers may be longer than Research Articles, but the length must be justified by the content of interest.

Forum. Forum papers are essays with original ideas / speculations / well-sustained arguments, with no new data. They usually contribute to free debate of current and sometimes controversial ideas in vegetation science. They may include criticism of papers published in Applied Vegetation Science, or (if interesting to our readers) of papers published elsewhere. An abstract is required, but otherwise the sectional format is flexible. The length of the Forum papers is normally up to 4000 words. The submission of longer Forum papers can be accepted on the basis of a sound explanation given in the cover letter. Forum papers, especially short ones, have high priority in publication.

Report. This article type can provide information on new tools, databases, software for vegetation science or research initiatives. The length of the Report papers is up to 3000 words; additional material can be put in electronic appendices. Longer Report papers can be accepted on the basis of a sound explanation given in the cover letter.

Commentary. This article type provides a broader context to a Research Article that has been recently published in the journal. Commentaries are solicited by the journal editors.

3. BEFORE SUBMISSION

Authors should kindly note that submission implies that the content has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere except as a brief abstract in the proceedings of a scientific meeting or symposium. Prior posting of a manuscript on an online preprint archive is acceptable, as is posting of the preprint on a private website or online publication as a component of a thesis or dissertation. The journal does not consider for publication articles permanently posted in preprint archives associated with specific journals.

Before submitting a paper, please read the 'Aims and Scope' and 'Manuscript Acceptance Criteria' sections to find out whether the manuscript is potentially suitable for the journal.

New submissions should be made via the Research Exchange submission portal https://submission.wiley.com/journal/AVSC. Should your manuscript proceed to the revision stage, you will be directed to make your revisions via the same submission portal. You may check the status of your submission at anytime by logging on to submission.wiley.com and clicking the “My Submissions” button. For technical help with the submission system, please review our FAQs or contact submissionhelp@wiley.com.

If you need help with submissions, please contact Vicki Pang from the Editorial Office at JVSAVS@wiley.com.

Online publication from 2021

Applied Vegetation Science is published in an online-only format effective from the 2021 volume. This is a proactive move towards reducing the environmental impact caused by the production and distribution of printed journal copies and will allow the journal to invest in further innovation, digital development and sustainability measures. All colour images are now published free of charge.

Free Format Submission

Applied Vegetation Science now offers free format submission for a simplified and streamlined submission process.

Before you submit, you will need:

Your manuscript: this can be a single file including text, figures, and tables, or separate files—whichever you prefer. All required sections should be contained in your manuscript, including Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, and Conclusions. Figures and tables should have legends inserted next to them. Lines should be numbered. References may be submitted in any style or format, as long as it is consistent throughout the manuscript. If the manuscript, figures or tables are difficult for you to read, they will also be difficult for the editors and reviewers. If your manuscript is difficult to read, the editorial office may send it back to you for revision.

Your co-author details, including affiliation and email address.

An ORCID ID, freely available at https://orcid.org.

If you are invited to revise your manuscript after peer review, the journal will request the revised manuscript to be formatted according to journal requirements as described below.

Once the submission materials have been prepared in accordance with the Author Guidelines, manuscripts should be submitted online at https://submission.wiley.com/journal/AVSC
