About the journal
Ecology and Society is an electronic, peer-reviewed, multi-disciplinary journal devoted to the rapid dissemination of current research. Manuscript submission, peer review, and publication are all handled on the Internet. Software developed for the journal automates all clerical steps during peer review, facilitates a double-blind peer review process, and allows authors and editors to follow the progress of peer review on the Internet. As articles are accepted, they are published in an "Issue in Progress." At four month intervals the Issue-in-Progress is declared a New Issue, and subscribers receive the Table of Contents of the issue via email. Our turn-around time (submission to publication) averages around 350 days.

We encourage publication of special features. Special features are comprised of a set of manuscripts that address a single theme, and include an introductory and summary manuscript. The individual contributions are published in regular issues, and the special feature manuscripts are linked through a table of contents and announced on the journal's main page.

The journal seeks papers that are novel, integrative and written in a way that is accessible to a wide audience that includes an array of disciplines from the natural sciences, social sciences, and the humanities concerned with the relationship between society and the life-supporting ecosystems on which human wellbeing ultimately depends.

Content of the journal ranges from the applied to the theoretical. In general, papers should cover topics relating to the ecological, political, and social foundations for sustainable social-ecological systems. Specifically, the journal publishes articles that present research findings on the following issues: (a) the management, stewardship and sustainable use of ecological systems, resources and biological diversity at all levels, (b) the role natural systems play in social and political systems and conversely, the effect of social, economic and political institutions on ecological systems and services, and (c) the means by which we can develop and sustain desired ecological, social and political states.

Editors-in-Chief Carl Folke and Lance Gunderson summarize their vision for Ecology and Society:

We view humanity and nature as co-evolving systems that interact within the bounds of the biosphere at various temporal and spatial scales and across scales. We hope to create a rigorous scientific forum where we can discuss issues related to the linked and dynamic systems of humans and nature and generate an improved understanding of essential interactions that will enhance our capacity to actively adapt to change without eroding resilience or creating vulnerability. (Conservation Ecology Volume 6, issue 1, article 19)

We also encourage papers that make use of the unique opportunities of an e-journal: color illustrations, animated model output, down-loadable models and data sets, use of the "Response" option for interactive discussion, and other novel inventions to encourage reader interaction.

Formatting a Manuscript


1. Organizing your submission
To submit, please separate your manuscript and save to the following file types:
  • body - from Introduction to end of Literature Cited - (rich-text format)
  • tables (each table is an individual file, in rich-text format)
  • figures (each figure is an individual image file: GIF, PNG, or JPG)
  • equations (each equation is an individual image file: GIF, PNG, or JPG -- GIF is best for equations)
  • appendices (pdf for text, tables, and figures; other file types are accepted for online resources, models, spreadsheets, etc.)
If you are unable to save in one of these formats please contact the editorial office.


2. Title, Abstract, Key words/phrases, and Acknowledgments

     (Step 3 of the submission processs)

Enter your title, abstract, key words/phrases, and acknowledgments directly into the submission interface, either by typing or cutting-and-pasting. Do not duplicate them in the body of your manuscript.
  • Title
    • The title should be entered with the first letter of each word capitalized.
      Example: "Basic Science, Applied Science, and the Radical Middle Ground"
    • Avoid abbreviations
  • Abstracts
    • Abstracts should be less than 300 words.
    • They should not contain citations.
    • Avoid abbreviations - if used they must be first spelled out.
  • Key words/phrases should be listed alphabetically and separated by a semicolon.


3. Body of the manuscript (from Introduction through to end of Literature Cited)

Note: Figures or tables in the body of the manuscript will generate errors during the submission procedure. Headings and subheadings must appear on a line by themselves

Main headings:
  • Standard headings should be used preferentially (if apprpriate)
  • INTRODUCTION, METHODS, RESULTS, DISCUSSION, CONCLUSION, LITERATURE CITED
  • Other headings are permissible
  • Use LITERATURE CITED (not Bibliography, References, nor anything else)
  • centered on a line by themselves
Secondary headings
  • left-justified on a line by themselves
  • bolded
  • lowercase except for initial letter of the first word
  • e.g., General characteristics of movement
Tertiary headings
  • left-justified on a line by themselves
  • italicized
  • lowercase except for initial letter of the first word
  • e.g., Field study and simulation model


Equations and Greek characters

Equations

The process of inserting equations occurs in both Steps 4 and 5.
  • First, you must indicate where in the manuscript you want the equations (Step 4)
  • Next, you must upload the image of the equation (Step 5).
To designate the location of each equation: Insert tags <eqn#> into the text of your manuscript where the equation should appear,
where # = 1,2,3,...,n indicates the sequential number of the equation.

During Step 5, you will be prompted to upload images of your equation(s).
Upload each equation as a separate graphic file named eqn#.gif, where # corresponds to the tags inserted into the body of the manuscript.
Any one equation may be specified any number of times by inserting the appropriate tag in the manuscript in multiple locations.

Greek characters

To include Greek characters in your manuscript please either use the "Insert -- Symbol" feature in Microsoft Word,
or
write out the full name of the Greek character and enclose the word in parentheses (e.g., <alpha>, <beta>) within the text of your manuscript (click here for a complete list of Greek characters and the associated full name).



Text Boxes

To set content apart in a Text Box, place <txt#> at the beginning and </txt#> at the end of the content (where # = 1, 2, 3... is the appropriate box number). Put into the body of the manuscript in the approximate desired location.



Details of Style

Within text referencing
  • include author plus year of publishing, (Smith 2000)
  • separate two references with a comma, (Smith 2000, Green 2002)
  • list oldest reference first, (Smith 2000, Green 2002, Brown 2012)
  • if two authors give both names, if three authors use 'et al.', (Smith and Brown 2000, Smith et al. 2012)
  • the same author in two different years- name the author only once (Smith 2000, 2012, Brown 2013)
  • the same author in the same year, designate with italicized letters (Smith 2000a)
  • direct quotes should include date followed by page number (Smith 2000:197)
  • second hand references (Smith 2000, as cited in Brown 2005)
    Note: Smith 2000 should not appear in Lit. Cited section.


Spacing and Fonts

Single-space all material.
Separate paragraphs with a blank line.
Use a 12-point font (preferably Times Roman).

Underlining/Italicization

Italicize scientific names and the symbols for all variables and constants except Greek letters in the text.
Symbols in illustrations should be italic to match the text.
Italics should NOT be used for emphasis.
Do not underline text.

Capitalization

For common names of birds, follow the Ornithological Societies of North America style (AOU checklist), with initial capital letters: Black-throated Green Warbler. For all non-avian taxa, use lower case for common names.

Footnotes

Avoid footnotes in the body of the manuscript; most footnote material can be incorporated in the text for the benefit of readers and editors.

Footnotes below tables are acceptable; instead of numbers, please use (in order): †, ‡, §, |, ¶, #, ††, ‡‡, §§, ||, ¶¶, ##.

Units

Use the International System of Units (Systeme Internationale: SI) for measurements. Consult Standard Practice for Use of the International System of Units (ASTM Standard E-380-93) for guidance on unit conversions, style, and usage. When preparing text and figures, note in particular that,
  1. SI requires the use of the terms mass or force rather than weight;
  2. use the solidus (/); for two or more units in a denominator, use negative exponents; and
  3. use a capital L as the symbol for liter.


Statistics

Use leading zeroes with all numbers <1, including probability values (e.g., P < 0.001). For every significant F statistic reported, provide two df values (numerator and denominator). Whenever possible, indicate the year and version number of the statistical software used.

Web (HTML) links

Authors may include links to other Internet resources in their article [e.g., the Breeding Bird Survey (http://www.mbr-pwrc.usgs.gov/bbs/bbs.html)]. When inserting a reference to a webpage, please include the http:// portion of the address.


  • The Council of Science Editors (CSE) Style Guide, is recommended for details of style.
  • Manuscripts are currently accepted in English only.
  • Write with precision, clarity, and economy:
    use the active voice and first person whenever appropriate.
  • Use American spellings (e.g., behavior, not behaviour) except when quoting or in citations.


Literature cited - In general, use Harvard Referencing System.
  • Each citation in the text must be included in the Literature Cited section.
  • Every reference in the Literature Cited must be referred to in the text.
  • The list should conform in sequencing and punctuation to that found in recent issues of Ecology and Society.


Citing Ecology and Society: Example  reference
Example Journal Citation: Example reference
  • All journal titles should be spelled out completely (i.e., do not abbreviate journal titles).
  • In the titles of articles, the spellings of all words should agree with that used in the original publication.
  • Provide the publisher's name and location when you cite symposia or conference proceedings; distinguish between the conference date and the publication date if both are given.
  • Do not list abstracts or unpublished material in the Literature Cited. They may be listed in the text as personal observations (by an author of the present paper), personal communications (from others), or unpublished x, where x = data, manuscript, or report;
  • Provide authors' names and initials for all unpublished data, manuscripts, and reports in the text of the paper.
  • Links to online, freely available articles are permitted. Please use the following format:
    [online] URL: http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=lme4
  • Do not include links to password-protected websites or an author's website. Exceptions to this rule include links to Birds of North America species accounts and links to author's websites that post a software program that is not available by any other means and is integral to the paper.
  • Insert spaces between author's initials.
  • Last name appears first for first author; initial(s) first for subsequent authors.
  • Books and conference proceedings must include publisher information: name, city, state or province (if pertinent), country.
  • Conference proceedings must include the city, state/province, country, and year in which the conference was held. Conference dates are typically included, although not required. The editor(s) of the Proceedings should be included, if possible.
  • Journal articles in press should include the volume number of the journal even if the page range is not known.
4. Attachments (tables, figs, etc.)

All tables, figures, appendices, videos, computer simulations, and databases constitute attachments to the body of the manuscript. As such, they must be submitted as separate files. During the submission process you will be required to select your attachment type from a drop down list, and then type or paste its associated caption – these steps are repeated until you have input the captions for all of your attachments. You will then upload the attachment files, and our software will generate a web page for each attachment based on the file names and captions provided. Do not include captions or titles in the attachment files themselves.

Please see the Equations section below for information on how to format equations.

Tables (saved as .rtf files)
  • The table's caption is entered separately and should not appear in the table.
  • Single space
  • Row and column entries separated by cell divisions using the table function in word processing software.
    (That is, tabs, spaces, or blank lines to separate information will not work.)
  • No horizontal or vertical lines (borders) to separate cells
  • No images within tables
  • No color
  • Use regular font in column and row headings (no bold or italics)
  • Do not merge rows, merging across columns is okay
  • No bulleted or numbered lists
  • Asterisks are reserved to denote levels of significance, not for footnotes
  • Superscripted numbers may be used to identify citations within a table
  • The footnote symbols should be in the order: †, ‡, §, |, ¶ , #, and then doubled symbols. (See CSE Style Manual).
  • Do not include information in tables that is not discussed in the text of the manuscript.
Example Tables:
example tables

Figures

  • Figures are added during Step 5 of the submission process.
  • Figures must be clear and sharp.
  • Use imaging software (Excel does not export graphs well).
  • Figures must be in .GIF, .PNG, or .JPG formats.
    • For photos or images with gradients of color use JPG.
    • For images with flat colour use GIF or PNG8.
  • 72 dpi and no wider than 700 pixels (unless given explicit permission by the managing editor).
  • the image will be printed 7.5 cm wide (complex figures may be printed at 16cm) - text should be legible, clear, and sharp at that size. Print your figure at 7.5 cm; is it legible, clear, and sharp?
  • We may ask you to supply high resolution, print-quality versions of your figures.
  • Font must be large, legible, and sans serif; Arial font is best.
  • Use a white background
  • No title or caption information in the figure. That information is entered elsewhere.
  • Initial upper case letters are preferred except where SI requires lower case letters for unit abbreviations (e.g., dbh, ln).
  • No border around your figures
  • Color figures are encouraged. Please verify they will print well in black-and-white (and that colour selection would be distinguishable to people who are red-green colour-blind).
  • Use shaded, or hatched bars in preference to color or black ones.
  • Use italic lettering for single-letter variables, constants, and scientific names in illustrations to make them consistent with the text.
  • Use bar graphs in preference to pie charts

Example Figures:
example figures

Appendices

Appendices are not copy edited nor formatted prior to publication so authors must ensure that their appendix is formatted correctly.

Appendices containing text, tables, and/or figures should be uploaded as PDF, formatted according the journal's style.

The top margin of the appendix must be 4 cm.

Include a heading and caption in your pdf, where the heading "Appendix #." is left aligned, bold, and the caption (not bold) is Sentence Case.

Table and figure numbers in appendices should be keyed to the letter identifying that appendix:
Fig. A1.1, for Figure 1 in Appendix 1;
Table A2.3 for Table 3 in Appendix 2.
Equations should be numbered similarly: A2.3, for Equation 3 in Appendix 2, and so on.

Tables are formatted with a double line above the heading, and single lines below the heading and below the last table row.

Enter all title and caption information when asked during the submission process, and upload each appendix as a separate file.

Other appendices

All nontext appendices, such as databases, video, or sound files may be uploaded using an appropriate filetype for the file contents. Appendices should be labeled logically to indicate content (i.e. "Program#.filetype", "Sound#.filetype"). Captions should describe the attachment fully (by content, file format, usage, software required to run them, etc.) and are uploaded separately during the submission process.
