About the journal
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT publishes research and opinions concerning the use and conservation of natural resources, the protection of habitats and the control of hazards. Its field is applied ecology in the widest sense, without regard to the disciplinary boundaries created by modern academic study. Contributions are drawn from biology, botany, climatology, ecology, fisheries management, forest sciences, geography, geology, information science, law politics, public affairs, zoology, and a wide variety of other disciplines, often in combinations determined by inter-disciplinary study. Hence, the journal serves to improve cross-disciplinary communication, and to make ideas and results from any one field available to environmental practitioners from other backgrounds.
As the principal user of the realm of nature, humanity has a major responsibility to ensure that its impacts on the environment are benign rather than catastrophic. Environmental Management facilitates this by disseminating the work of both academic researchers and professionals from outside the universities and colleges, including those in business, government, research establishments, and public interest groups. The aim is to present a wide spectrum of viewpoints and approaches, and to this end the journal consists of four main sections. Forum contains addresses, comments, and opinions about environmental matters. Articles in the Profile section describe and evaluate particular case-histories, events, policies, problems, or organizations and their work. Papers in the Research section present empirical, technical, or other scientific studies and their findings. The section on Environmental Auditing is for articles that cover methods of appraisal and accounting with respect to environmental resources or problems. Generally, the empirical research and auditing lead to a better understanding of environmental problems and usually of their solutions, the debate published in the journal's Forum helps construct better environmental research or policies, and Profile articles may contribute to either aim, or both.
Innovative research is encouraged in the sense of both identifying new problems and formulating novel solutions to well known ones. Articles are solicited from all over the world, as the international dimension is considered especially important. Hence it is vital to recognize that many environmental problems are common to a wide variety of nations, while some are either global matters or at least oblivious of national boundaries. It is also vital that approaches, methods, and experience be shared among environmental practitioners in many countries, so that the problems of our ever more interdependent planet may be tackled in a concerted manner. Environmental Management treats mankind as steward of the natural environment: not all resources are to be preserved, but our responsibility to future generations, and to other living species, can only be fulfilled by conserving some resources and using others wisely and sparingly. The complexity of this task demands enlightened research, debate, and policy formulation.
Environmental Management seeks articles from professionals at any stage of their careers, from neophytes to recognized authorities. The rate of manuscript rejection is minimized by seeking constructive criticism from referees, so that authors are encouraged to refine and develop their ideas. In the event that important differences of opinion cannot be resolved between authors and referees of readership, the Forum section may be used to present a Comment on an article that has recently been published in the journal, which may be followed by the author's Reply.
Authors intending to submit papers are urged to prepare their manuscripts in close conformance with the Instructions published in the journal. Further information may be obtained from the Editor-in-Chief or Editorial Board members.
Instructions to Authors
Authors are urged to prepare manuscripts in the closest possible conformity with the journal's style and the following instructions. In the event of an article being accepted, careful preparation will ensure easier copy editing, trouble-free typesetting, fewer errors to be corrected, and possibly a shorter time between acceptance of the paper and its appearance in print.
Papers should be written in English and presented in the following order:
- Title of the paper, with a shortened version for page headings that does not exceed 50 letters and spaces including punctuation
- For each author, full first and last name, affiliation (e.g., department or division, institution, if appropriate) and address (street address or box number if appropriate, city, state or province, postal code and country). If there is more than one author, indicate to whom communications should be sent
- An abstract of no more than 250 words, typed double-spaced, that sketches the objectives, results and conclusions of the paper
- About six key words
- The text of the paper. Subheadings should be used as appropriate, although the introduction to the paper should not be preceded by a subheading
- "Acknowledgements,' if made, precede the "Literature Cited" section; "Appendices," if there are any, come after it. Appendices must each have a title
- Captions for figures, typed double-spaced on a separate page
- Tables, prepared on separate sheets and numbered 1, 2, 3, etc.
Manuscripts should normally not exceed 10,000 words, which is approximately equivalent to 40 pages of double-spaced typed manuscript. However, most articles are between 15 and 25 pages long (4000 - 6000 words).
Please double space all parts of the manuscript and use 2.5 cm margins on all sides. Authors should retain a complete copy of the manuscript and illustrations identical in every respect to the material submitted. Please ensure that all tables and figures cited in the text are submitted with the manuscript.
Authors will be notified as soon as possible of decisions concerning the suitability of their manuscripts for publication in the journal.
Literature Cited. List only references that are cited in the text. Text citations give the author's name and the date of the work, e.g., Jones (1996) or (Jones 1996). Two authors should be cited as "Jones and Smith (1996)," while more than two should be referred to as "Jones and others (1996)." The list of references, under the heading "Literature Cited," should be typed double-spaced. Journal names should be spelled out in full, not abbreviated. The following list illustrates the journal's style of citation, which should be adhered to:
- Food and Agriculture Organization. 1984. Land evaluation
- for forestry. Forestry Paper 48. FAO, Rome, 123 pp.
- Inhaber, H. 1976. Environmental indices. John Wiley
- and Sons, New York, 178 pp.
- Lovejoy, T.E., and D.C. Oren. 1981. The minimum critical

- Szaro, R.C., and R.P. Balda. 1979. Bird community dynamics in a
- Ponderosa pine forest. Studies in Avian Biology 3:1-66.
Footnotes. These should not be used: information should be integrated into the text. If, however, footnotes are absolutely unavoidable, they should be typed on a separate sheet, double-spaced, and designated by numbers, which should also be noted in the margin of the text to indicate the location of the footnotes in the manuscript.
Metric System. The metric system should be used throughout. If required, equivalent values in other systems may be placed in parentheses immediately after the metric value.
Mathematical Symbols. Marginal notes to the copy-editor should be used to explain mathematical symbols used in the text.
Tables. These should have a clear and rational structure. All tables should be numbered (1, 2, 3, etc.) and should have a main title not more than 12 words long. Give enough information in subtitles so that each table is understandable without reference to the text.
Illustrations. These should be referred to in the text as, for example, "Figure 12," not "Fig. 12." They should be numbered consecutively regardless of whether they are linedrawings or photographs, with parts of each figure being referred to by letters (A), (B), (C), etc. - e.g,. "Figure 12A.' Alongside the first reference to a figure in the text, write a marginal note to the copy editor indicating the location of the illustration - e.g., "Figure 12 here."
Each illustration must be identified on an attached tag by the author's name, the running head of the article, and the figure number. The manuscript should include a separate list of figures, typed double-spaced. Ensure that figures are clear, are labelled, have adequate margins, and are sent in a form that can be reduced in size and reproduced legibly in the journal. Poor quality figures are not acceptable. If you are in doubt about the suitability of reproductions of your figures, consult the Editor-in-Chief.
Photographs and Color Art. Authors are encouraged to include black-and-white photographs among their figures wherever these would help the reader to visualize the topic described in the text.
Color can be used without charge for the electronic edition of the journal but will appear in the printed version of the journal at the author's expense: $1150 for the first page and $575 for each additional page within the same article.
Scales. As the size at which an illustration is printed is invariably different from that of the original, scale-bars should be used In place of magnifications or ratio scales.
Word Processor Files. Final copies of manuscripts, but not initial submissions, may also be submitted on diskette, using any major word processing software. Both DOS/Windows-based and MacIntosh systems are acceptable. The diskette should be clearly labeled with the author's name, the title of the article, and the software used.
Proofs. Once the article has been accepted for publication, it will be copy edited and typeset, after which the corresponding author will receive page proofs to correct. Other than the correction of typographical errors, alterations cannot be made at this stage unless paid for in full by the author. Corrected proofs must be returned immediately if the paper is to appear in the designated issue.
Reprints. Reprints of the article may be ordered from the publisher when the page proofs are returned. After publication, copies of the paper, or of any other article that appears in a Springer-Verlag journal, can be purchased from the Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information (CISTI), attn: Client Assistant for Document Delivery, Ottawa K1A 0S2, Canada, Tel: (+1) 613-993-9251, Fax: (+1) 613-952-8243, E-mail: cisti.docdel@nrc.ca.
Guidelines for Electronically Produced Illustrations for Print
General
- Send illustrations separately from the text (i.e. files should not be integrated with the text files).
- Always send printouts of all illustrations
.
Vector (line) Graphics
Vector graphics exported from a drawing program should be stored in EPS format.
Suitable drawing program: Adobe Illustrator. For simple line art the following drawing programs are also acceptable: Corel Draw, Freehand, Canvas.
No rules narrower than .25 pt.
No gray screens paler than 15% or darker than 60%.
Screens meant to be differentiated from one another must differ by at least 15%.
Spreadsheet/Presentation Graphics
Most presentation programs (Excel, PowerPoint, Freelance) produce data that cannot be stored in an EPS format. Therefore graphics produced by these programs cannot be used for print.
Halftone Illustrations
Black & white and color illustrations should be saved in TIFF format.
Illustrations should be created using Adobe Photoshop whenever possible.
Scans*
Scanned reproductions of black and white photographs should be provided as 300 ppi TIFF files.
Scanned color illustrations should be provided as TIFF files scanned at a minimum of 300 ppi with a 24-bit color depth.
Line art should be provided as TIFF files at 600 ppi.
* We do prefer having the original art as our printers have drum scanners which allow for better reproduction of critical medical halftones.
Graphics from Videos
Separate files should be prepared for frames from a video that are to be printed in the journal. When preparing these files you should follow the same rules as listed under Halftone Illustrations.
Guidelines for Electronically Produced Illustrations for ONLINE
Video
- Quicktime (.mov) is the preferred format, but .rm, .avi, .mpg, etc. are acceptable provided a free viewer is available for download on the Internet.
- No video file should be larger than 2MB. To decrease the size of your file, consider changing one or more of the following variables: frame speed, number of colors/greys, viewing size (in pixels), or compression. Video is subject to Editorial review and approval

Electronic Submission
This journal will now receive electronic manuscript submissions via Manuscript Central. Authors will upload text and graphics to this system. The Editors will inspect the submission online and assign reviewer(s). Those reviewers will have access to the electronic manuscript that the author uploads and many weeks of time will be saved in the reviewing process.
System requirements
Authors will need the following in order to use Manuscript Central:
Author Accounts
Authors entering the journal's Manuscript Central site can either create a new account or use an existing one. When you have an existing account, use it for all your submissions and you can track their status on the same page.
Getting Started
Once you have logged into your account, Manuscript Central will lead you through the submission process in a step-by-step orderly process. If you cannot finish your submission in one visit, you can save a draft and re-enter the process at the same point for that manuscript.
While submitting your electronic manuscript, you will be required to enter data about your manuscript in the system. These include title, subtitle, author names and affiliations, and so forth. Support for special characters is available. At any point during this process, there are Help buttons available to see common questions and a support link to ask a specific question via email.
Uploading Files
Electronic files can be uploaded as PDF, PostScript, or RTF. PDF and PostScript files should already contain the graphics within the file. (PostScript files are converted by the system into PDF so that Editors and reviewers may share them.
RTF (Rich Text Format) is a common export property of most popular word processors. Check your word processor to see if it can export or "SaveAs" your file in RTF format. MS Word and WordPerfect both contain this function. After uploading the RTF for text, you will be prompted for uploading graphics. Common graphics files such as GIF, JPEG, EPS, TIFF and many others are supported. After uploading the parts of the article in this manner, the system will convert the files to PDF. You will see the result of the conversion with the Acrobat plug-in in your browser. Keep copies of your word-processing and graphics files. You may want to revise the manuscript during the review process and you will need the original files if your manuscript is accepted. At any point during this process, there are Help buttons available to see common questions and a support link to ask a specific question via email.
You will also be notified by email that your submission was successful.
Graphics Quality
If you are submitting electronic graphics that you have scanned, be prepared to send the hard copy originals upon request. While the electronic files you have created are satisfactory for the review process, they may not be of sufficient quality for printing. This also holds true for files created in low-resolution graphics environments such as MS Powerpoint, etc.
Keeping Track
After submission, you may return periodically and monitor the progress of your submission through the review process.
