Politiques et processus éditoriaux

Journal d'océanographie et de recherche marine suit une politique éditoriale progressive qui encourage les chercheurs à soumettre les recherches originales, les critiques et les observations éditoriales sous forme d'articles, bien étayés par des tableaux et une représentation graphique.

Ses auteurs sont seuls responsables de toute faute scientifique, y compris le plagiat dans leurs articles de recherche. L'éditeur n'est pas responsable de toute inconduite scientifique dans un article de recherche publié. Cependant, en tant qu'éditeur, Longdom Publishing suivra des directives scientifiques strictes et les conseils d'EIC pour se rétracter ou erratum de tout article à tout moment en cas d'inconduite scientifique ou d'erreurs dans des articles.

Frais de traitement des articles (APC) :

Journal d'océanographie et de recherche marine est organisé par Longdom Publishing, une organisation autonome et ne reçoit de financement d'aucune institution / gouvernement. Par conséquent, le fonctionnement de la Revue est uniquement financé par les frais de gestion reçus des auteurs et de certains sponsors académiques/entreprises. Les frais de traitement sont nécessaires pour répondre à l'entretien de la revue. Étant un journal en libre accès, le Journal d'océanographie et de recherche marine ne reçoit pas de paiement pour l'abonnement, car les articles sont librement accessibles sur Internet. Les auteurs d'articles sont tenus de payer des frais de traitement équitables pour le traitement de leurs articles. Cependant, il n'y a pas de frais de soumission. Les auteurs ne sont tenus de payer qu'après l'acceptation de leur manuscrit pour publication.

Le temps de traitement moyen des articles (APT) est de 55 jours

The basic article processing fee or manuscript handling cost is as per the price mentioned above on the other hand it may vary based on the extensive editing, colored effects, complex equations, extra elongation of no. of pages of the article, etc.

Fast Editorial Review Process

Oceanography and Marine Research is participating in the Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process) with an additional prepayment of $99 apart from the regular article processing fee. Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process is a special service for the article that enables it to get a faster response in the pre-review stage from the handling editor as well as a review from the reviewer. An author can get a faster response of pre-review maximum in 3 days since submission, and a review process by the reviewer maximum in 5 days, followed by revision/publication in 2 days. If the article gets notified for revision by the handling editor, then it will take another 5 days for external review by the previous reviewer or alternative reviewer.

Acceptance of manuscripts is driven entirely by handling editorial team considerations and independent peer-review, ensuring the highest standards are maintained no matter the route to regular peer-reviewed publication or a fast editorial review process. The handling editor and the article contributor are responsible for adhering to scientific standards. The article FEE-Review process of $99 will not be refunded even if the article is rejected or withdrawn for publication.

The corresponding author or institution/organization is responsible for making the manuscript FEE-Review Process payment. The additional FEE-Review Process payment covers the fast review processing and quick editorial decisions, and regular article publication covers the preparation in various formats for online publication, securing full-text inclusion in a number of permanent archives like HTML, XML, and PDF, and feeding to different indexing agencies.

Article Withdrawal Policies

If an author requests a withdrawal within 6 days of submission, the author is allowed to withdraw the manuscript without paying any withdrawal fee however, if authors withdraw manuscripts any time after the peer review process and acceptance, a withdrawal fee i.e., 30% of the publication fee has to be paid according to honorarium rule.

Submission of an Article

In order to reduce delays, authors should assure that the level, length and format of a manuscript submission conform to Longdom Publishing SL’s requirements at the submission and each revision stage. Submitted articles should have a summary/abstract, separate from the main text, of up to 300 words. This summary does not include references, numbers, abbreviations or measurements unless essential. The summary should provide a basic-level introduction to the field; a brief account of the background and principle of the work; a statement of the main conclusions; and 2-3 sentences that place the main findings into a general context. The text may contain a few short subheadings of no more than 40 characters each.

Journal d'océanographie et de recherche marine is an open access journal. Each article published by the journal follows a specific format.

Article Categories

• Original Articles: reports of data from original research.
• Reviews: comprehensive, authoritative descriptions of any subject within the scope of the journal. These articles are usually written by experts in the field who have been invited by the Editorial Board.

• Case reports: reports of clinical cases that can be educational, describe a diagnostic or therapeutic dilemma, suggest an association or present an important adverse reaction. Authors should clearly describe the clinical relevance or implications of the case. All case report articles should indicate that informed consent to publish the information has been granted from the patients or their guardians.

• Commentaries: short, focused, opinion articles on any subject within the scope of the journal. These articles are usually related to contemporary issues, such as recent research findings, and are often written by opinion leaders.
• Methodology articles: present a new experimental method, test or procedure. The method described may be new, or may offer a better version of an existing method.
• Letter to the Editor: these can take three forms: a substantial re-analysis of a previously published article; a substantial response to such a re-analysis from the authors of the original publication; or an article that may not cover ‘standard research’ but that may be relevant to readers.

For more information on each type of article, please contact the Editor at editor@longdom.org

During submission, you will be asked to provide a cover letter, in which you should explain why your manuscript should be published in the journal and declare any potential competing interests. Please provide the contact details (name and email addresses) of two potential peer reviewers for your manuscript. These should be experts in their field who will be able to provide an objective assessment of the manuscript. The suggested peer reviewers should not have published with any of the authors of the manuscript within the past five years, should not be current collaborators and should not be members of the same research institution. Suggested reviewers will be considered along with potential reviewers recommended by the Editorial Board members.

Each table should be numbered and cited in sequence using Arabic numerals (i.e., Table 1, 2, 3, etc.). Titles for tables should appear above the table and be no longer than 15 words. They should be pasted at the end of the document text file, in A4 Portrait or Landscape format. These will be typeset and displayed as such in the final, published form of the article.

If a figure consists of separate parts, please submit a single, composite illustration page that includes all parts of the figure. There is no charge for the use of color figures. The figure legends should be included in the main manuscript text file at the end of the document, rather than as part of the figure file. For each figure, the following information should be provided: Figure numbers in sequence, using Arabic numerals, a title of 15 words maximum and a detailed legend of up to 300 words. Please note that it is the responsibility of the author(s) to obtain permission from the copyright holder(s) to reproduce figures or tables that have previously been published elsewhere.

Initial Review Process

Submitted manuscripts will be evaluated initially by the editor-in-chief and an associate editor. A rapid, initial decision regarding whether to have a manuscript formally reviewed by two or more reviewers with appropriate expertise, or rejected without a formal review will be determined based on the quality, scientific rigor and data presentation/analysis of the manuscript. It is anticipated that approximately 70% of the submitted manuscripts will undergo formal review and 30% will be rejected without evaluation by external reviewers.
