About the journal
|
The Journal of Quaternary Science publishes original papers on any field of Quaternary research, and aims to promote a wider appreciation and deeper understanding of the earth's history during the last two million years. Papers from a wide range of disciplines appear in JQS including, for example, Archaeology, Botany, Climatology, Geochemistry, Geochronology, Geology, Geomorphology, Geophysics, Glaciology, Limnology, Oceanography, Palaeoceanography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, Palaeontology, Soil Science and Zoology. The Editorial Board particularly welcomes papers reporting the results of interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary research which are of wide international interest. Short communications and correspondence relating to views and information contained in JQS may also be considered for publication. Invited reviews are REGULARLY published and we have TWO thematic/special issues each year |

Instructions to Authors
Initial Manuscript Submission. Submit three copies of the manuscript (including copies of tables and illustrations) to J.D. Scourse, School of Ocean Sciences, University of Wales, Bangor, Menai Bridge, Gwynedd LL59 5EY, Wales, UK
Authors must also supply:
- an electronic copy of the final version (see section below),
- a Copyright Transfer Agreement with original signature(s) - without this we are unable to accept the submission, and
- permission grants - if the manuscript contains extracts, including illustrations, from other copyright works (including material from on-line or intranet sources) it is the author's responsibility to obtain written permission from the owners of the publishing rights to reproduce such extracts using the Wiley Permission Request Form. Permission grants should be submitted with the manuscript.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been previously published and should not be submitted for publication elsewhere while they are under consideration by Wiley. Submitted material will not be returned to the author unless specifically requested.
Electronic submission. The electronic copy of the final, revised manuscript must be sent to the Editor together with the paper copy. Disks should be PC or Mac formatted; write on the disk the software package used, the name of the author and the name of the journal. We are able to use most word processing packages, but prefer Word or WordPerfect and TeX or one of its derivatives. Illustrations must be submitted in electronic format where possible. Save each figure as a separate file, in TIFF or EPS format preferably, and include the source file. Write on the disk the software package used to create them; we favour dedicated illustration packages over tools such as Excel or Powerpoint.
Manuscript style. The language of the journal is English. All submissions including book reviews must have a title, be printed on one side of the paper, be double-line spaced and have a margin of 3cm all round. Illustrations and tables must be printed on separate sheets, and not be incorporated into the text.
- The title page must list the full title, a short title of up to 70 characters and names and affiliations of all authors. Give the full address, including e-mail, telephone and fax, of the author who is to check the proofs.
- Include the name(s) of any sponsor(s) of the research contained in the paper, along with grant number(s).
- Supply an abstract of up to 200 words for all articles except book reviews and correspondence. An abstract is a concise summary of the whole paper, not just the conclusions, and is understandable without reference to the rest of the paper. It should contain no citation to other published work.
- Include up to five keywords that describe your paper for indexing purposes.
Journal of Quaternary Science publishes the following:
- Invited Reviews: Annual invited reviews from leading Quaternary Scientists.
- Research Papers: Contributions presenting the results of research into any aspect of Quaternary Science. Manuscripts should not normally exceed 7000 words.
- Rapid Communications: Short contributions designed for 'fast-track' publication. Manuscripts should not normally exceed 1500 words, with an abstract of not more than 150 words, and may contain up to three figures. Publication within three months of acceptance is envisaged.
- Correspondence: Correspondence is invited on any topic raised in papers in Journal of Quaternary Science.
Reference style. References should be quoted in the text as name and year within brackets and listed at the end of the paper alphabetically. Where reference is made to more than one work by the same author published in the same year, identify each citation in the text as follows: (Collins, 1998a), (Collins, 1998b). Where three or more authors are listed in the reference list, please cite in the text as (Collins et al., 1998)
All references must be complete and accurate. Online citations should include date of access. If necessary, cite unpublished or personal work in the text but do not include it in the reference list. References should be listed in the following style:
Snyder JA, Forman SL, Mode WN, Tarasov GA. 1997. Postglacial relative sea-level history: sediment and diatom records of emerged coastal lakes, north-central Kola Peninsula, Russia. Boreas 26: 329-346.

The Geriatric Website. 1999. http://www.wiley.com/oap/ [1 April 1999]
Illustrations. Supply each illustration on a separate sheet, with the lead author¡¯s name and the figure number, with the top of the figure indicated, on the reverse. Supply original photographs; photocopies or previously printed material will not be used. Use an external light source when photographing soil profiles to ensure that fine detail will be shown in the printed version. Line artwork must be high-quality laser output (not photocopies). Grey shading and thin lines are NOT ACCEPTABLE. Please use hatching, dotting etc. to define specified areas. Lettering must be of a reasonable size that would still be clearly legible upon reduction, and consistent within each figure and set of figures. Supply artwork at the intended size for printing.
Electronic artwork. If colour illustrations are supplied electronically in either TIFF or EPS format, they may be used in the PDF of the article at no cost to the author, even if this illustration was printed in black and white in the journal. The PDF will appear on the Wiley InterScience site. The cost of printing colour illustrations may be charged to the author although a limited number of colour illustrations are available each year.
Copyright. To enable the publisher to disseminate the author¡¯s work to the fullest extent, the author must sign a Copyright Transfer Agreement, transferring copyright in the article from the author to the publisher, and submit the original signed agreement with the article presented for publication. A copy of the agreement to be used (which may be photocopied) can be found in each volume of Journal of Quaternary Science. Copies may also be obtained from the journal editor or publisher, or may be printed from this website.
Further Information. Proofs will be sent to the author for checking. This stage is to be used only to correct errors that may have been introduced during the production process. Prompt return of the corrected proofs, preferably within two days of receipt, will minimise the risk of the paper being held over to a later issue. 25 complimentary offprints will be provided to the author who checked the proofs, unless otherwise indicated. Further offprints and copies of the journal may be ordered. There is no page charge to authors.
