Authors are required only to submit the basic URL. This is to ensure that if a server is restructured, the document is more likely to be found by the reader.
Units
Always use S. I. units. Non-standard abbreviations should be used as little as possible and defined in parentheses after the first occurrence. In equations, all variables should be typed in italics, if possible. A list of symbols used in the paper should be submitted. This list will not appear in print but will reduce the risk of errors during typesetting.
Tables
All tables must be cited in the text and the legends should be sufficiently detailed to allow understanding without reference to the text. Each table should be typed double-spaced on a separate sheet of paper.
Figures
All figures must be cited in the text and should have a legend that is sufficiently detailed to allow understanding without reference to the text. All figure legends should be supplied on a separate sheet. Original figures must be submitted with the manuscript since copies cannot be reproduced satisfactorily. Figures should be supplied with the figure number, name(s) of the author(s) and the manuscript number, along with the indication "top" if necessary. Duplicate sets of figures must accompany the copies of the manuscript; these need not be of the same quality as the originals.
Illustrations
Illustrations should, if possible, be supplied as both hard copy and electronic files. JPG and TIF formats are preferred, but EPS files are also acceptable. Black and white art figures should be at a resolution of 600 dpi. Colour figures should be produced in CMYK mode rather than RGB mode and should be at a resolution of 600 dpi.
Colour Illustrations
Colour illustrations can be accepted if authors are willing to pay for the cost.
Digital Object Identifier
Academic Press assings a unique digital object identifier (DOI) to every article it publishes. The DOI appears on the title page of the article. It is assinged after the article has been accepted for publication and persists throughout the lifetime of the article. Due to its persistence,it can be used to query Academic Press for information on the article during the production process, to find the article on the Internet through various Web sites, including IDEAL, and to cite the article in academic references. When citing an article in a reference section, it is important to include the article's DOI in the references, if available, as volume and page information is not always available for articles published online. The references section, below, shows a sample of DOI included in references. Further information may be found at http://www.academicpress.com/doi.
Proofs
Proofs will be sent to the corresponding author for correction. The publisher reserves the right to charge authors for the cost of changes made to the text or the figures at proof stage.
Copyright
Authors submitting a manuscript do so on the understanding that if it is accepted for publication, copyright of the article, including the right to reproduce the article in all forms and media, shall be assigned exclusively to the publisher. Papers submitted are not to have been published or submitted for publication in a similar form elsewhere.
The Copyright Transfer Agreement, which may be copied from the journal or found on the journal homepage, should be signed by the appropriate person(s) and should accompany the original submission of the manuscript to the journal.
In consideration for the assignment of copyright, the publisher will supply 30 offprints of each paper. Further offprints may be ordered at extra cost at proof stage. Welcome to the Elsevier online submission service. This service has been designed to be as easy as possible to use. Authors can upload their article as a LaTeX, Microsoft?(MS) Word?/B> or WordPerfect?/B>. It is also possible to submit an article in PostScript or Adobe?Acrobat?PDF format, but if the article is accepted it will be necessary to send in the original source files.
The system generates an Adobe Acrobat PDF version of the article which is used for the reviewing process. Authors, Reviewers and Editors send and receive all correspondence by e-mail and no paper correspondence is necessary. Note: articles are converted into PDF for the review process but may be edited after acceptance to follow journal standards.

Journal specific guidelines on types of article accepted and how to prepare your article can be found in the Author Gateway journal page, in the Guide for Authors.
Word Processor Formats
Please submit your article as a file in one of the following formats:
- MS Word 6
- MS Word 97
- MS Word 98 for Macintosh?
- MS Word 2000
- WordPerfect 6.1 or higher
- RTF
Important notes on word processor file preparation
- For review purposes you must submit your article as a SINGLE FILE. You need to embed all your figures and tables within this file.
- Fonts: Please choose Times, Times New Roman, Courier, Arial or Helvetica fonts as much as possible. Other fonts (e.g. Chinese, Japanese and Korean (CJK) character fonts) may cause the PDF conversion to fail. If your manuscript does not correctly convert to PDF, replace the font(s) where necessary and try again.
- Most formatting codes will be removed or replaced on processing your article so there is no need for you to apply excessive layout styling. In addition, avoid options such as automatic word breaking, justified layout, double columns, automatic paragraph numbering (especially for numbered references). However, do use bold face, italic, subscripts, superscripts, etc.
- For the production of your article you will also have to submit your graphic files separately as high resolution graphics. (See also the section on Electronic Artwork below.)
LaTex
For general instructions on how to prepare an article using LaTeX, see the Latex file guidelines. In addition, please note the following:
- Include all your graphics in the LaTeX file, e.g. with the \includegraphics from the graphics package.
- Submit any special class (or style) files and other macro files with your article. We are using an up-to-date TeX installation (TeXLive5d), so you need not include any of the standard packages.
PDF
If possible, please submit the original LaTeX or word processor files: this website will take care of converting them into a PDF file.
If you wish to create your own PDF, download the ES_review.joboptions to the "Settings" folder of your Acrobat Distiller and choose the "ES_review" joboptions before converting your file.
Note: This joboptions file is for Adobe Distiller v4.05 and later. If you are still working with an older version, or if you need more help, see. PDF settings .
File naming
To avoid confusion, please make sure your file has a short, descriptive name. Short means less than 30 characters and descriptive means names like figure1.tif and smith-article-version1.doc.
For the production of your paper in the journal we need high-resolution graphic files in either TIFF or EPS. For information on how to prepare your artwork for electronic submission, see http://authors.elsevier.com/artwork.
