Some thoughts after the first article got accepted. The processing speed of this journal is very impressive. After one month after sending for review, the review was completed. There were three experts. It took only more than 2 months from acceptance after revised submission to online publication. The logistic services were also very efficient, and emails were basically responded on the same day. The submission and review system is the most comfortable one I have ever used. I feel that IF will continue to rise, and many experts will publish on it.

It is a very good journal. Several top teams in the field have published articles on it, and the editor is also relatively responsible. It is expected that the impact factor will continue to increase in the future.

Last November, that was totally normal. I submitted my paper in October last year and just received the reviewer's comments now.

Both the major and minor revisions have been downgraded, and an article under review since November 24th has yet to yield any results. The editor has been changed multiple times, and it is unclear what the situation is.

I have great respect for the journal and it is the best journal I have submitted to so far. The proofreading before publication is also very rigorous. I hope the journal will continue to improve and I wish all researchers good luck in their work.

Will this magazine still be a top journal by the end of this year?

Just submitted it, the editor replied saying they are considering publishing it in the deep-sea environment and ecology section of "Frontiers in Marine Science". Have they considered accepting it?

I submitted it on July 4th and it has been under review for a month now. Is it because the reviewers are on vacation?

This year it has become a top journal, the process is quite fast, for those who are eager to graduate and have sufficient funding from their boss, they can start submitting

(1) Thank | 骑着蚂蚁上高速

Objective evaluation: The reputation of this journal is poor, with a large number of publications and a predatory nature; if you are not in a hurry to graduate, it is advisable to carefully consider submitting articles

Speedy review process, accepted within a little over a month by two reviewers

Mid-October 2023: Submission
Received feedback in mid-November: 1 accepted, 1 major revision, 1 minor revision. Must be completed within 1 week.
Accepted in mid-December. 
The review process was very fast, with no additional feedback from the editor. The revised manuscript was accepted directly by the reviewer

Garbage in garbage, the editorial department P does not understand, must drag your manuscript, not to be sent for review, the layout fee is too expensive, the quality of the received articles is uneven, the self-citation rate is high, and the impact factor has decreased sharply. It is estimated that it will be classified into the third district next time. Predatory journals can't run away. This kind of garbage for the purpose of making money should close down as soon as possible

The speed is really fast, submitted on March 29th, and the review was completed on April 12th.
Three experts, one rejection, one major revision, one acceptance.
The one who rejected said that I used the wrong materials and should use XXX (a material that has been widely studied). Pure sabotage, completely ignored.
Submitted for revisions on April 18th, will update after receiving news.
This journal is fine except for being expensive...
