Journal Guide

The Journal of Forestry is the most widely circulated scholarly forestry journal in the world. In print since 1902, the Journal has received several national awards for excellence. The mission of the Journal of Forestry is to advance the profession of forestry by keeping professionals informed about significant developments and ideas in the many facets of forestry: economics, education and communication, entomology and pathology, fire, forest ecology, geospatial technologies, history, international forestry, measurements, policy, recreation, silviculture, social sciences, soils and hydrology, urban and community forestry, utilization and engineering, and wildlife management.The Journal publishes eight issues annually: January/February, March, April/May, June, July/August, September, October/November, and December.

Journal of Forestry Research (JFR), a quarterly journal published by the Northeast Forestry University and Ecological Society of China under administration of the Ministry of Education of P. R. China, was founded in 1990. As an English language journal, the journal mainly reports on practice and research in Ecosystem management, Forest management, Tree breeding, Silviculture, Forest ecology, Landscape ecology, Forest soils, Forest disease and insects, Wildlife ecology and management, Biology engineering and technology, Wood science, Technology of wood processing, Forest engineering. The journal publishes critical reviews, original research papers, technical notes, and short communications. All papers are subject to peer review and are published online on SpringerLink on average within 40 days of acceptance.

The Journal of Fourier Analysis and Applications will publish results in Fourier analysis, as well as applicable mathematics having a significant Fourier analytic component. Appropriate manuscripts at the highest research level will be accepted for publication. Because of the extensive, intricate, and fundamental relationship between Fourier analysis and so many other subjects, select and readable surveys will also be published. These surveys will include historical articles, research tutorials, and expositions of specific topics.The Journal of Fourier Analysis and Applications will provide a perspective and means for centralizing and disseminating new information from the vantage point of Fourier analysis. The breadth of Fourier analysis and diversity of its applicability require that each paper should contain a clear and motivated introduction, which is accessible to all of our readers.Areas of applications include the following:antenna theory * crystallography * fast algorithms * Gabor theory and applicati

The Journal of Freshwater Ecology is intended to be a vehicle for the reasonably rapid dissemination of current limnological information. The Journal publishes refereed manuscripts dealing with a wide variety of original ecological studies, observations, and techniques. Extensive mongraphs will not normally be published.

The Journal of Friction and Wear publishes theoretical and experimental papers on all aspects of the science of friction, lubrication and wear. Launched in 1980 at the initiative of V. A. Belyi, and I.V. Kragelskii, the journal today remains the primary source of tribological studies in the former Soviet Union. Among the topics covered are: Friction physics and tribosystem thermodynamics; Surface characterization; Wear monitoring; Surface engineering; Nanotribology; Contact mechanics; Metal fatigue, wear susceptibility measurement; Wear-resistant materials, coatings; Tribology of friction pairs, durability analysis; Bearings: contact interaction, thermoelasticity; Lubricants, surfactants, grease fillers; Tribological design, optimization, testing; Tribology of alloys, self-lubricating polymers, antifriction materials; and Biotribology.

The Journal of Fuel Cell Science and Technology publishes peer-reviewed archival scholarly articles, Research Papers, Technical Briefs, and feature articles on all aspects of the science, engineering, and manufacturing of fuel cells of all types. Specific areas of importance include, but are not limited to: development of constituent materials, joining, bonding, connecting, interface/interphase regions, and seals, cell design, processing and manufacturing, multi-scale modeling, combined and coupled behavior, aging, durability and damage tolerance, reliability, availability, stack design, processing and manufacturing, system design and manufacturing, power electronics, optimization and control, fuel cell applications, and fuels and infrastructure.

1. The nature, processing and utilization of coal, petroleum, oil, shale, natural gas and biomass
2. Applied catalytic research in the chemistry of synthesis of new or alternative energy sources, such as hydrogen energy, fuel cell, synfuels, biofuels and C1 chemistry
3. Related research includes pollution control and environmental protection during fuel conversion and utilization processing, such as elimination of environmentally hazardous effluents, waste (refuse)-derived fuels and waste treatments

Journal of Functional Biomaterials (JFB, ISSN 2079-4983) is an international and interdisciplinary scientific journal that publishes regular research papers (articles), reviews and short communications about applications of materials for biomedical use. JFB covers subjects from chemistry, pharmacy, biology, physics over to engineering. The journal focuses on the preparation, performance and use of  functional biomaterials in biomedical devices and their behaviour in physiological environments. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.

The Journal of Functional Foods aims to bring together the results of fundamental and applied research into functional foods (ie those containing various factors to ensure or enhance health) and their development and commercialization in food products. The journal will cover (but will not be restricted to) the fields of plant bioactives; antioxidants and ageing; dietary fibre, prebiotics and functional starches; probiotics and probiotic functional foods; functional lipids; bioactive peptides; vitamins, minerals and botanicals and other dietary supplements; functional beverages and food products; and molecular nutrition and other relevant aspects of disease prevention and treatment.Papers will cover such issues as new functional food bioactives; efficacy and safety of bioactive compounds and other functional food constituents using genomic technologies, bioassays and dynamic models; characterisation of functional foods and functional constituents with reference to product development; preparation of natural and synthetic ingredients for use in foods, supplements or premixes and improvement of ingredient quality; use of natural and synthetic ingredients in foods, supplements or premixes, effects of processing (including packaging, storage etc) on functionality and improvement of product quality; verification, quality control and traceability of natural and synthetic functional food ingredients and products; improvement of the quality of foods with inherent health benefits ; development and commercialisation of specific functional food products, supplements or functional ingredients; and the regulatory aspects of functional foods and related issues eg labelling, substantiation of health claims.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
