JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL MARINE BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY

The Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology provides a forum for experimental ecological research on marine organisms in relation to their environment. Topic areas include studies that focus on biochemistry, physiology, behavior, genetics, and ecological theory. The main emphasis of the Journal lies in hypothesis driven experimental work, both from the laboratory and the field. Natural experiments or descriptive studies that elucidate fundamental ecological processes are welcome. Submissions should have a broad ecological framework beyond the specific study organism or geographic region. Short communications that highlight emerging issues and exciting discoveries within five printed pages will receive a rapid turnaround. Papers describing important new analytical, computational, experimental and theoretical techniques and methods are encouraged and will be highlighted as Methodological Advances. We welcome proposals for Review Papers synthesizing a specific field within marine ecology. Finally, the journal aims to publish Special Issues at regular intervals synthesizing a particular field of marine science. All printed papers undergo a peer review process before being accepted and will receive a first decision within three months.

《实验海洋生物学与生态学杂志》为海洋生物及其环境的实验生态学研究提供了一个论坛。主题领域包括生物化学、生理学、行为学、遗传学和生态学理论的研究。该杂志的主要重点在于假设驱动的实验工作，从实验室和领域。阐明基本生态过程的自然实验或描述性研究是受欢迎的。提交的研究报告应该有一个广泛的生态框架，超越特定的研究组织或地理区域。在五页纸内突出新出现的问题和令人兴奋的发现的简短交流将迅速扭转局面。鼓励发表描述重要的新分析、计算、实验和理论技术和方法的论文，并将作为方法学的进步加以强调。我们欢迎对综合海洋生态学某一特定领域的论文进行审查的建议。最后，该杂志的目标是定期出版综合海洋科学某一特定领域的特刊。所有印刷的论文在被接受前都要经过同行评审，并将在三个月内收到第一个决定。
