NEW! Environmental Microbiology's ISI Impact Factor for 2002 has increased from 3.276 to 3.649
Environmental Microbiology is devoted to the study of microbial processes in the environment, microbial communities and microbial interactions.
Environmental Microbiology provides a high profile vehicle for publication of the most innovative, original and rigorous research in the field. The scope of the Journal encompasses the diversity of current research on microbial processes in the environment, microbial communities and microbial interactions, including, but not limited to, the following:
- the structure, activities and communal behaviour of microbial communities
- microbial interactions and interactions with plants, animals and non-living environmental factors
- population biology and clonal structure
- microbes and surfaces
- adhesion and biofouling
- responses to environmental signals and stress factors
- growth and survival
- modelling and theory development
- microbial community genetics and evolutionary processes
- microbial physiological, metabolic and structural diversity
- pollution microbiology
- extremophiles and life in extreme and unusual little-explored habitats
- primary and secondary production
- element cycles and biogeochemical processes
- microbially-influenced global changes
- new technological developments in microbial ecology, in particular for the study of activities of microbial communities and of non-culturable microorganisms
Interdisciplinary studies of fundamental problems are particularly welcome.
OnlineEarly Now Available Environmental Microbiology now publishes OnlineEarly papers - fully reviewed and revised articles published online in advance of publication in a forthcoming printed issue. | |

Instructions to Authors
Environmental Microbiology is published monthly. The journal is covered by Blackwell Publishing's OnlineEarly service. OnlineEarly articles are complete full-text articles published online in advance of their publication in a printed issue. Articles are therefore available as soon as they are ready, rather than having to wait for the next scheduled print issue. OnlineEarly articles are complete and final. They have been fully reviewed, revised and edited for publication, and the authors' final corrections have been incorporated. Because they are in final form, no changes can be made after online publication. The nature of OnlineEarly articles means that they do not yet have volume, issue or page numbers, so OnlineEarly articles cannot be cited in the traditional way. They are therefore given a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), which allows the article to be cited and tracked before it is allocated to an issue. After print publication, the DOI remains valid and can continue to be used to cite and access the article.
Environmental Microbiology invites original research papers reporting new information that significantly advances our understanding of the lives and activities of microorganisms in the environment, microbial communities, microbial interactions and microbially driven environmental processes. Editorial Policy
The scope of Environmental Microbiology includes the following:
- the structure, activities and communal behaviour of microbial communities
- microbial interactions and interactions with plants, animals and abiotic factors
- genomics, functional genomics, proteomics, comparative genomics, environmental genomics
- responses to environmental signals and stress factors
- primary and secondary production
- element cycles and biogeochemical processes
- microbial physiological, metabolic and structural diversity
- extremophiles and life in extreme and unusual little-explored habitats
- pollution microbiology
- microbially-influenced global changes
- growth and survival
- microbes and surfaces, adhesion, biofilm biology, biofouling
- population biology and clonal structure
- microbial community genetics and evolutionary processes
- modelling and theory development
- new technological developments in microbial ecology, in particular for the study of activities of microbial communities and of non-culturable microorganisms
Interdisciplinary studies of fundamental problems are particularly appropriate.
The structure of the Journal reflects its endeavour to actively promote the field of environmental microbiology, the broad scope of the field, and the impact of socio-political, health, nutritional and economic issues and developments. Thus, in addition to their principal content of full-length and short research papers, issues will include Editorials/Opinions, Minireviews, a Web Alert, and Correspondence (general, scientific) as regular features. Research Papers. Full length or brief (maximum four printed pages) communications of original research. Only complete reports will be published; preliminary communications will not be considered.Minireviews
Minireviews. Bring to the attention of our readership exciting new developments and/or concepts in a timely fashion. They are selective in scope, focused and concise, rather than being comprehensive or historical, and may be somewhat speculative, if this is likely to provoke interesting discussions and stimulate new lines of creative experimentation. They typically have a length of 4-6 printed pages. There is no strict format for minireviews, but they should include a Summary, Introduction, and Concluding Remarks, which bracket the main text. Literature citations should be balanced but not exhaustive. Most, but not all, reviews are invited; authors wishing to submit a review should contact Kenneth Timmis or David Stahl.
Correspondence. Contributions to discussions of topical issues in or impacting environmental microbiology or new interpretations of hypotheses.
Submission of Manuscripts
Four copies of each manuscript must be submitted for reviewing purposes. Papers may be submitted to either of the Editors. Authors may suggest appropriate potential reviewers, if they so wish. Every effort will be made to ensure rapid publication of accepted manuscripts. Authors will normally receive reviewers' comments and the editorial decision within four weeks of submission. Manuscripts will not ordinarily be returned to authors, unless they have been marked by reviewers with suggestions for improvements.
No page charges will be levied.
Papers must be submitted exclusively to Environmental Microbiology and are accepted on the understanding that they have not been, and will not be, published elsewhere. If any part of a study submitted to Environmental Microbiology is resubmitted at a later date, the manuscript must be sent to the editor who originally handled it. The submission letter must note the EM number of the previous manuscript. If accepted, papers become copyright of the Journal. Authors must give signed consent to publication in a letter sent with the paper, but permission to use material elsewhere (e.g. in review articles) will normally be granted on request. Presentation of Manuscripts
Please note that authors should always retain a copy of all material. Papers should be as concise as possible, compatible with clarity and completeness, and should not normally exceed eight printed pages. As a guide, this corresponds to 17 pages of double line-spaced manuscript with three figures/tables, 15 pages of manuscript with six figures/tables or 14 pages of manuscript with eight figures/tables. The text should be double-spaced.
Original drawings or photographs should be supplied with each copy of the manuscript. Photographs should be provided as glossy prints. Please also send digital versions of your figures if at all possible.
It is the policy of Environmental Microbiology for authors to pay the full cost for the reproduction of their colour artwork. However, if the authors cannot meet these charges, and the editors feel that colour figures are essential for a manuscript, then it may be possible to waive part of these charges.
Please note that if there is colour artwork in your manuscript when it is accepted for publication, Blackwell Publishing require you to complete and return a colour work agreement form before your paper can be published. This form can be downloaded as a pdf from the internet. The web address for the form is:
http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/Sub3000_X_CoW.pdf
If you are unable to access the internet, or are unable to download the form, please contact the Production Editor emi@oxon.blackwellpublishing.com and they will be able to email or fax a form to you.
The title page should include the author's name(s), affiliation(s) where the work was conducted, and the address to which all correspondence and proofs should be sent. Telephone and fax numbers should also be supplied, along with an email address if available. Present addresses of authors should appear as a footnote. A running title of not more than 50 characters should be provided together with up to six key words for indexing purposes.
All papers must normally include a summary not exceeding 200 words. The main text of full papers should be subdivided into Introduction, Results, Discussion and Experimental Procedures. The Results and Discussion sections may be combined and can include additional subheadings. Experimental procedures should be sufficiently detailed to enable the experiments to be reproduced.
In Brief Reports, results and discussion are combined, there is no section on Experimental Procedures, and essential experimental details should be incorporated into the corresponding figure and table legends.
All pages must be numbered consecutively. Acknowledgments, References, Table and Figure legends should follow the main text, each on a separate page. The preferred position of tables and figures should be indicated in the margin of the text. Footnotes should be avoided.
Standard abbreviations should be as recommended in Quantities, Units, and Symbols (The Royal Society, 1988). Abbreviations of non-standard terms should follow, in parentheses, their first full usage. References
Authors should use the system illustrated below. Only full articles that have been published or are 'in press' may be included in the reference list. In the text, unpublished or submitted studies should be referred to as such (e.g. J. M. Smith, unpublished), or as a personal communication. It is the author's responsibility to obtain permission from colleagues to include their work as a personal communication. In the text, references should be inserted in parentheses in date order, as follows: (Pugsley, 1996; Matsunaga et al., 1997). The reference list should be in alphabetical order according to the first-named author. Papers with two authors should follow those of the first-named author, arranged in alphabetical order according to the name of the second author. Articles with more than two authors should follow those of the first named author in chronological order. The title of the article must be included. For papers with up to seven authors, the names of all authors should be listed. For papers with eight or more authors, the first six names should be listed, followed by 'et al.'. Standard abbreviations of journal titles should be used, as in the Index Medicus. The following provide examples:

Identical disk and hard copies of the final version of the manuscript must be provided, as accepted manuscripts will be published from disk wherever practicable. This reduces typesetting errors and speeds up publication. Authors must ensure that all sections of their paper, excluding figures, are presented in a single file, updated to incorporate all revisions, and that the version on the diskette matches the final hard copy. Accepted manuscripts are transmitted directly to the Production Office, which deals with all enquiries related to publication. File Description Form and Copyright Assignment Form
The disk and hard copies of the final (revised) version of the manuscript must be accompanied by the completed File Description Form and Copyright Assignment Form. Authors will be required to assign copyright in their paper to Blackwell Publishing and the Society for Applied Microbiology. Copyright assignment is a condition of publication and papers will not be passed to the publisher for production unless copyright has been assigned. (Papers subject to government or Crown copyright are exempt from this requirement). To assist authors, the editorial office will supply an appropriate copyright assignment form. Alternatively, authors may like to download a copy of the from from the journal web site (see below). Text
Files should be formatted double-spaced with no hyphenation and automatic word-wrap (no hard returns within paragraphs). Please type your text consistently, e.g. take care to distinguish between '1' (one) and 'l' (lower-case L) and '0' (zero) and 'O' (capital O), etc. Tables
Tables should be typed as text, using 'tabs' to align columns. The use of table editors should be avoided. Do not use graphics software to create tables. Mathematics
In-line equations should be typed as text. The use of graphics programs and 'equation editors' should be avoided. Displayed equations are rekeyed by our typesetter. Figures
Please send us digital versions of your figures if at all possible. More details are available on our Digital Illustration Page. EPS and TIFF files are preferable, but please consult our web site for further details (see URL below). Please note that your paper will go through production more quickly if the figures do not have to be relabelled or redrawn. Please ensure that electronic artwork is prepared such that, after reduction to fit across one or two columns or two-thirds width (80 mm, 169 mm or 110 mm, respectively) as required, all lettering will be clear and easy to read, i.e. no labels should be too large or too small. Avoid using tints if possible; if they are essential to the understanding of the figure, try to make them coarse. Always enclose hard copies of digitally supplied figures. No artwork should be incorporated into the text files. Original drawings or photographs should be supplied for reproduction.
In the full-text online edition of the journal, figure legends may be truncated in abbreviated links to the full-screen version. Therefore, the first 100 characters of any legend should inform the reader of key aspects of the figure. Proofs
Page proofs will be despatched about four weeks after acceptance of papers and should be corrected and returned within two days of receipt. Proofs will be sent via email as an Acrobat PDF (portable document format) file. Only corrections and essential changes can be made at this stage. The cost of any extensive changes will be charged to the authors. The Journal reserves the right to make minor modifications to manuscripts that do not conform to accepted standards. Such alterations will always be submitted to the authors for approval at the proof stage. Publication will normally be within 4-8 weeks of receipt of corrected proofs by the production office.
Offprints
Fifty offprints of each article will be supplied free. Additional offprints may be ordered using the form supplied with the proofs. Distribution of Strains
The publication of an article in Environmental Microbiology is subject to the understanding that authors will distribute freely any strains, clones, antibodies or other reagents not readily available described therein, for use in academic research. Cover Photographs
Photographs suitable for the cover of Environmental Microbiology would be welcomed by the Editors. It is preferable, but not essential, that these should be related to submitted papers. Fifty free copies of the cover will be provided to the author whose photograph is reproduced thereon. World Wide Web Site
Additional material (such as multimedia adjuncts, large data sets, extra colour illustrations, bibliographies, or any other material for which insufficient space in Environmental Microbiology is available) may be able to be published on this site.
