Guide for Authors

Aims and scope

Ecological Modelling publishes new mathematical models and systems analysis for describing ecological processes, and novel applications of models for environmental management.

We welcome research on process-based models embedded in theory with explicit causative agents and innovative applications of existing models. And because applications can help refine models and propose new directions for research, the journal publishes both to help foster reproducibility and utility.Human activity and well-being are dependent on and integrated with the functioning of ecosystems and the services they provide. We aim to understand these basic ecosystem functions using mathematical and conceptual modelling, systems analysis, thermodynamics, computer simulations, and ecological theory, and look to a wide spectrum of applications ranging from basic ecology to human ecology to socio-ecological systems. The journal welcomes original research articles, review articles, viewpoint articles and short communications.

The journal also supports the activities of the International Society of Ecological Modelling (ISEM).

Benefits to authors

We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more. Please click here for more information on our author services.

Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission. If you require any further information or help, please visit our Support Center

The journal is concerned with the use of mathematical models and systems analysis for the description of ecological processes and for the sustainable management of resources. Human activity and well-being are dependent on and integrated with the functioning of ecosystems and the services they provide. We aim to understand these basic ecosystem functions using mathematical and conceptual modelling, systems analysis, thermodynamics, computer simulations, and ecological theory. This leads to a preference for process-based models embedded in theory with explicit causative agents as opposed to strictly statistical or correlative descriptions. These modelling methods can be applied to a wide spectrum of issues ranging from basic ecology to human ecology to socio-ecological systems. The journal welcomes research articles, short communications, review articles, letters to the editor, book reviews, and other communications. The journal also supports the activities of the International Society of Ecological Modelling (ISEM).

Types of contributions

Before submitting an article to Ecological Modelling please read carefully the editorial policy which can also be found on the ECOMOD homepage. Editorial Policy

1. Original research papers (regular papers)

2. Review articles

3. Short communications

4. Jorgensen Research and Reviews

5. Viewpoint Articles

6. Book reviews

7. Letters to the Editors

Original research papers should report the results of original research. The material should not have been previously published elsewhere, except in a preliminary form.

Review articles should cover subjects falling within the scope of the journal which are of active current interest. They may be submitted or invited.

A Short communication is a concise but complete description of a limited investigation, which will not be included in a later paper. Short communication should be as completely documented, both by reference to the literature and description of the experimental procedures employed, as a regular paper. They should not occupy more than 6 printed pages (about 12 manuscript pages, including figures, tables and references).

Jorgensen Research and Reviews Honoring Ecological Modelling?s founding and long-time Editor, Sven Erik Jorgensen, these Invited Papers aim to highlight a key or cutting-edge area of ecological modelling research. Published papers receive promotional access and are highlighted on the journal's homepage. For more information contact the JRR editor, Brian Fath (bfath@towson.edu).

Viewpoint Articles are short commentaries of 2,000 words or less that express a personal viewpoint on ecological modelling such as new research directions, gaps in current research, interdisciplinary perspectives are welcomed. Papers for this section should contain a condensed abstract to highlight the main points of the commentary.

Book reviews will be included in the journal on a range of relevant books which are not more than 2 years old. Book reviews will be solicited by the Editor-in-Chief. Unsolicited reviews will not usually be accepted, but suggestions for appropriate books for review may be sent to the co-Editor in Chief Juan Blanco at juan.blanco@unavarra.es.

Letters to the Editors offering comment or useful critique on material published in the journal are welcomed. The decision to publish submitted letters rests purely with the Editor-in-Chief. It is hoped that the publication of such letters will permit an exchange of views which will be of benefit to both the journal and its readers. Submission checklist
