The length of the review cycle depends on the reviewers. If you receive your reviews quickly, the time from acceptance to publication online (not in print) is extremely fast. I’d definitely submit to this journal; it’s a highly-respectable journal for the field of earth science.

The first review was too slow, taking over 7 months. Unfortunately, luck was not on our side. The reviewer initially accepted the task but then disappeared after two months, causing the editor to invite another reviewer and go through another round of waiting.

Ah, ah, ah, although I knew it would be slow, I didn't expect it to be this slow. Accepted the invitation for review on December 25, and the second reviewer took over a month to accept. None of the three reviewers have provided the results. Alright then. There's no hope for my thesis before graduation.

After much hesitation, I decided to submit to this journal. I hope everything goes smoothly. I will wait and see if I receive any notification before graduation.

The difficulty of the journal is very high, worthy of its Impact Factor.
The opinions of the reviewers are very professional! Truly a top journal in the industry!
The achievements of my doctoral period have been published in three years.

Overall, the editorial process was fast, primarily depending on the speed of the reviewers. It seems that there is a two-month review period. After several years of struggling, the article finally found a place to be accepted~~
