SOIL SCIENCE SOCIETY OF AMERICA JOURNAL

SCOPE

The Soil Science Society of America Journal (SSSAJ), published bimonthly, is the official publication of the Soil Science Society of America. SSSAJ publishes content on soil physics; hydrology; soil chemistry; soil biology; soil biochemistry; soil fertility; plant nutrition; pedology; soil and water conservation and management; forest, range and wildland soils; soil and plant analysis; soil mineralogy, wetland soils. The audience is researchers, students, soil scientists, hydrologists, pedologist, geologists, agronomists, arborists, ecologists, engineers, certified practitioners, soil microbiologists, and environmentalists.

Manuscript Types

Contributions to SSSAJ may be:

Review Paper. A review is not simply a collection of papers that are all centered on a common theme. Review papers should provide a synthesis of existing knowledge and give new insights or concepts not previously presented in the literature, or at least not with the same level of detail. The review should identify knowledge gaps for future research. An author should generally be allowed more freedom to provide his/her view on a topic in a review as the papers being reviewed are presumed to already have passed some level of scientific scrutiny by peers. A good review is often one of the most important ways to advance an area of science. The review paper should be targeted to not more than 10 published pages. Ten pages is around 10,000 words, less about 250 words for each table or figure.

Issues Paper. Soils issues papers include discussion of contemporary soils issues from a combination of scientific, political, legislative, and regulatory perspectives. These papers may often be more philosophical, but must still be based on a foundation of good science. The issue paper should be targeted to not more than 10 published pages.

Original Research Article. Original research findings are interpreted to mean the outcome of scholarly inquiry, investigations, modeling, or experimentation having as an objective the revision of existing concepts, the development of new concepts, or the development of new or improved techniques in some phase of soil science. Authors are encouraged to test modeling results with measurements or published data. Articles published in SSSA Journal are expected to address important scientific questions in soil science and make a contribution to our understanding of the subject. Authors are encouraged to examine recent papers in SSSA Journal as a guide to evaluate whether their work is of the same high quality, scientific rigor, scope, and complexity.

Note. Notes focus on studies of limited scope, unique observations, or research techniques and apparatus. The length of a note should be 2 to 3 published pages.

Comments and Letters to the Editor. These papers contain (a) critical comments on papers published in one of the Society outlets, (b) editorial comments by Society officers, or (c) personal comments on matters having to do with soil science

Submission

Submit manuscripts at the SSSAJ Manuscript Submission Site. Submissions to SSSAJ may not be previously published in their entirety or simultaneously submitted to any other scientific or technical journal. American Society of Agronomy (ASA), Crop Science Society of America (CSSA), and Soil Science Society of America (SSSA) journals follow the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA style) for most style points. Consult our Publications Handbook and Style Manual for information on preparing and editing papers.

 Upon Submission you will be asked to pick your division. For guidance please refer to this file.

Creating the Manuscript File

Microsoft Word or LaTeX files may be submitted for review. For your convenience, we encourage you to use our Word template. The manuscript should be double-spaced, using page and continuous line numbers. See our LaTex File Submission Guidelines for instructions on submitting LaTeX files.

Double-Blind Peer Review

SSSAJ uses a double-blind review format. Authors are anonymous to reviewers and reviewers are anonymous to authors. Therefore, authors should prepare the manuscript with no author information (i.e., no byline, addresses/affiliations, acknowledgments, etc.; these items are entered into the submission metadata and are hidden from reviewers and will be added to a manuscript at acceptance).
