The review speed is relatively fast. The manuscript was submitted in August, and the rejection notice was received in November. There were 3 editors and opinions from 4 reviewers. The experts' opinions are all professional and hit the nail on the head. Thanks very much to the reviewers and editors. Although it has not been accepted, I am very happy with the responsible reviews and constructive opinions they put forward!

The most authoritative journal in the field of exploration geophysics. It has undergone the minor revision and minor revision. There were 5 reviewers, who have greatly helped (to improve) the article.

Terrible!!! The article was submitted on March 4, the associate editor invited review experts from March 11, it has been 1 month and a week or so now, and it is still "Associate editor is inviting review experts". I had asked the journal office when it was 4 weeks and they said the deputy editor had sent invitations to 5 review experts, and one has accepted the review invitation. The review status will not change until at least 3 approvals. Though people were affected by the epidemic, please reply promptly! If you agree to the review, please say yes. If you disagree, please say no, then we can quickly invite someone else!

Although the journal publishes more hydrology papers now, it is still the best journal in the field of exploration geophysics. The reviewers are very responsible. The comments written by a reviewer are longer than my paper! The comments given are pertinent, and my paper improved a lot after I revised it according to the reviewer's comments.

On April 20, 2025, the second review has been sent for external review, the current status shows "With AE for Recommendation", it has been in the hands of AE for about 4 months, not sure about the situation.

The first review by ASE took about a month and a half, while the second review seemed to only take 3 days, I can't remember exactly. The major overhaul and rework were completed on 20241111, and it has been sent for external review until now, still in the hands of the editor, not sure how it is going. The first review took 3 months, and the second review is approaching 4 months.

May I ask how long you have been waiting from "Awaiting ASE Recommendation" to "ur"?

It is indeed a top journal in the field of exploration geophysics. It took more than a year and several rounds of revisions before my submission was finally accepted. The publication standards are very high!

11-Sep-2024 Minor revision sent to EIC

Too strict, 5 reviewers, 3 major revisions, 1 minor revision, 1 rejection (reason for rejection: too short), response with 66 pages, too difficult, too difficult.

(1) Thank | LALALA007

Have your paper been accepted for publication after all? I also had a reject and resubmission after the first review, with too many comments and questioning the novelty. They allowed resubmission, but won't it be the same reviewers? There is a high probability that the novelty will still be questioned next time, right? What's the point then? Besides, the review process takes so long, it might be better to submit to a different journal directly. I just want to ask what happened with your paper? If you have to make so many revisions and still get rejected, I might consider submitting to a different journal.
