Companion Journal to Aquatic Biology and Aquatic Microbial Ecology
MEPS and AME have received international recognition as the leaders in their respective fields of science.
History
Marine Ecology Progress Series (MEPS) was founded by Professor Otto Kinne. Its original concept was based on 'Marine Ecology' - the first comprehensive, integrated treatise on life in oceans and coastal waters - conceived, contributed to, organized and edited by Otto Kinne, and published by John Wiley & Sons
MEPS continues to lead in the number of citations
Of all the journals currently listed under 'Marine & Freshwater Biology' in the Journal Citation Reports for 2012, MEPS features the highest number of Total Cites: 32 906. At the same time MEPS's Impact Factor of 2.546 is in the top tier of primary marine ecology journals.
MEPS also scores highly in the ranking of influence assessed by eigenfactor.org. In both the ISI categories "Marine & Freshwater Biology" and "Oceanography", arranged by "EigenFactor", MEPS occupies clear No. 1 positions out of 88 and 56 journals, respectively.
Aim
MEPS serves as a worldwide forum for all aspects of marine ecology, fundamental and applied. The journal covers: microbiology, botany, zoology, ecosystem research, biological oceanography, ecological aspects of fisheries and aquaculture, pollution, environmental protection, conservation, resource management.
Ecological research has become of paramount importance for the future of humanity. The information presented here should, therefore, encourage critical application of ecological knowledge for the benefit of mankind and, in fact, of life on earth. Marine Ecology Progress Series strives for
- complete coverage of the field of marine ecology
- the highest possible quality of scientific contributions
- quick publication
- a high technical standard of presentation
Scope
MEPS is international and interdisciplinary. It presents rigorously refereed and carefully selected Research articles, Reviews and Notes, as well as Comments/Reply Comments (for details see MEPS 228:1), Theme Sections, online Discussion Forums and As I See It (for details consult Guidelines for MEPS Authors) concerned with:
- Environmental factors: Tolerances and responses of marine organisms (microorganisms, autotrophic plants and animals) to variations in abiotic and biotic components of their environment; radioecology.
- Physiological-ecological mechanisms: Auto- and heterotrophy; thermo-, ion-, osmo- and volume-regulation; stress resistance; population genetics and ecological genome research; orientation in space and time; migrations; behavior; chemical ecology.
- Molecular Marine Ecology: Molecular basis of ecological processes.
- Cultivation: Maintenance and rearing of, as well as experimentation with, marine organisms under environmental and nutritional conditions which are, to a considerable degree, controlled; analysis of the physiological and ecological potential of individuals, populations and species; determination of nutritional requirements; ecological aspects of aquaculture; water-quality management; culture technology.
- Dynamics: Marine ecosystems; flow patterns of energy and matter as these pass through organisms, populations and ecosystems; biodiversity; trophic interrelations; production, transformation and decomposition of organic matter; plankton ecology; benthos ecology; estuarine and coastal ecology; wadden-sea ecology; coral-reef ecology; deep-sea ecology; open-ocean ecology; polar ecology; theoretical ecology; ecological methodology and technology; ecological modelling and computer simulation.
- Ocean management: Anthropogenic impacts: their role as modifiers and deformers of living systems, their biological consequences and their management and control; inventory of living resources in coastal areas, estuaries and open oceans; ecological aspects of fisheries; pollution of marine areas and organisms; protection of life in the seas; management of populations, species and ecosystems; management of coastal zones and sea areas; biotechnology.
- Eco-ethics: Marine ecological research relevant to human thought and conduct oriented to what is right or wrong, beneficial or destructive for the total system 'Homo sapiens plus nature'. For details see the editorial in MEPS 153:1-3 and the Eco-Ethics International Union (www.eeiu.org)
Conflicts of interest
Authors, Reviewers and Editors must disclose relationships (e.g. financial, economic, institutional) that may affect the integrity of the scientific process.
Open Access
Authors may purchase open access for their article at the time of manuscript acceptance. Inter-Research offers 2 types of open access for MEPS:
(1) Free Access. This allows free access to articles but their re-use is restricted by copyright. The fee is €500 for articles of 1–8 published pages*, €800 for 9–14 pages, and €1000 for >14 pages.
(2) Open Access under the Creative Commons by Attribution (CC-BY) Licence. Copyright remains with the authors, and re-use is unrestricted. The fee is €900 for articles of 1–8 published pages, €1200 for 9–14 pages, and €1400 for >14 pages.
Articles not published with open access (i.e. initially available to journal subscribers only) will become Free Access 5 years after publication. In addition, Free Access is given to Feature Articles at no cost to the authors.
Authors whose papers are eligible for Free Access at no cost at the time of publication may choose to publish Open Access CC-BY by paying the price difference (€400).
Only papers clearly marked with "CC BY" in the top right corner of the front page of an article are published with the Creative Commons by Attribution Licence. The CC-BY option was not available for Inter-Research journals before 1 April 2013. Older papers marked "Open Access" but not marked "CC BY" are published under the Free Access option.
*As a rough guide, 1 printed page = 3 manuscript pages
