Journal of Ecology from the British Ecological Society like Ecology from the American Ecological Society. Both belong to Top Journal in the field of ecology. The statuses of these two journals in the ecology field are almost at the same level. Compared with Ecology, Journal of Ecology requires large-scale and multi-dimensional experimental design, richer and comprehensive data, innovative partial experiments, relatively long experimental cycles or patterns, and mechanism explanations. In general, I feel that Journal of Ecology is more difficult than Ecology, but it is relatively difficult to enter the latter circle.

British Ecological Society. It’s very difficult. The article requirements are quite high.

Does it mean it's over for me if I've been "Awaiting Decision" for over 20 days, bro?

Bro, what about the follow-up status? I've also been awaiting decision for over 20 days.

I see many people asking about the "Under consideration" status, so let me give you a clear answer. This journal does not have an "Under review" status for initial submissions, so the "Under consideration" status includes both "with editor" and "under review." If your submission has been "Under review" for 40 days, it is likely being reviewed. If not, please be patient as it may still be with the editor.

In other words, UC has been submitted for review, right, boss?

Can I ask, is "under consideration" equivalent to external review?

(0) Thank | 明明

Can you please tell me, experts? It has been 23 days since I submitted my manuscript and it is still "under consideration". Does this mean it has been sent for external review, or is it still with the editorial team?

What is the review status of this journal at each stage? Does it include under consideration for review?

(0) Thank | scimomo

Submitted in early October of the 23rd year.
Received minor revisions in early December, with input from two experts and an editor. Their comments were fair and professional, leading to improvements in the article.
It seems like the revised version was submitted in early February of the 24th year.
Accepted directly in March.

Overall, the process felt very smooth. It took a total of six months, which was a moderate speed
