The review speed is slower than expected. Some of the articles are published faster, but when I submit my paper, the first review was received after 2 months. One of the reviewers gave extremely sharp and professional opinions! The other one gave more detailed questions! Then the second review took 50 days and the third review 40 days! It took 5 months to be accepted!

Hello, I would like to ask, what will be displayed after the submission? Is it completed after submitting manuscript, picture chart anonymously, and finally showing an ID number?

It's very fast, the first review is 1 month, and two major revision has been made. I feel that ADM also seems to be a reviewer, and there will be a decision within 24 hours after the revised manuscript submitted. In addition, the reviewer library of this journal should be quite limited. The reviewers they invited are more likely raised the questions from the perspective of article structure.

Why did the journal reject my submission for exceeding the maximum word count and display items, even though my word count was lower than the required seven thousand? What's going on?

I would like to ask how much the payment for the manuscript is.

The article submitted in June of 24 was received with the first round of revisions in September, and almost every month after that there was a major revision. The article was finally accepted on January 27th, mainly because one reviewer kept bringing up various issues, while the other had said it could be accepted since the third round. In total, the article was revised 5 times, and in the last round we told the editor that we had already made many revisions. The editor then made a decision and accepted the article within 15 minutes of resubmission. It just goes to show that the editor was still good, but the reviewers were quite unpleasant.

I am also in this situation, and I have been rejected several times.

Why is it that every time I submit it, it gets rejected and sent back? It has happened several times now, and I have made all the required changes. The editor keeps pointing out more issues, saying the word count is not exceeded when it is, and asking for a ruler to be shown in the images. It's really frustrating.

May I ask what else needs to be done after receiving the job offer? It has been a week now and the journal has not sent any emails to follow up.

After submitting, it was returned. Can any expert provide some guidance on what materials are needed for submission?

Can that brother explain how to solve this format issue? I've been changing the format all day, but it still got rejected, and the reason is still the same.

Can I ask if there is a limit on the number of images for the article, besides the word limit of 7000? Are your images and tables placed in separate Word documents? Also, in the email you returned, there are two additional points mentioned: 1. Expand on the scientific content and discussion of the manuscript; 2. Include all microphotographs with scale bars. Do I need to pay special attention to these two requirements? I am not quite sure what they mean.

Hello, I would like to ask why the editor keeps saying that my paper exceeds the word limit (5400) and asks me to provide an anonymous manuscript (even though I have already deleted the author information), and also keeps asking me to provide all microscopic images (even though I have already submitted the microscopic images separately in tif format), this has been going back and forth several times, and it has been like this all along.

I have never submitted to this journal, but in the past month I have received multiple review invitations from this journal, with up to two invitations per week. It seems that the content of the journal is mostly short articles, with not very high requirements for innovation, and they require a fast review speed, with reminders every week. The editor-in-chief can handle it within 2-3 days. The most absurd thing is that I received a review invitation in the afternoon, confirmed it the next evening, replied the following morning, and the editor-in-chief decided for major revisions on the third morning, with only me as the reviewer. I really don't understand... In addition, this journal basically has three options: rejection, rejection with resubmission, or consideration for major revisions.

Why do you send me both the green open access policy acceptance and the golden open access access path at the same time, and ask me to pay?

Review speed is not slow, one and a half months for the first review, four reviewers, two rounds of major revisions. Regarding submission, only Word files are accepted, there are limitations on the number of words and images, submissions that do not meet the requirements will be returned without much explanation. I combined many images into one file, named abcd, and each image and table should be placed separately in a file

I also encountered the same problem. After submitting, it was returned in less than half an hour. I even suspected that the submission was not successful and resubmitted it. But again, it was returned in less than half an hour. What is going on? Does anyone know? There is also no reply email, so I have no idea what the reason is

2.28 submission, 3.20 major revision, 4.8 revision, 5.1 major revision, 5.15 revision, 6.6 major revision, 7.12 revision, 8.8 acceptance. I have never been asked to do major revisions three times by a magazine, but finally, it was accepted.

(0) Thank | 小甜瓜

Forgot to update, it's very fast. The first piece was rejected and took one month, but the second piece was returned for revision for one month and accepted the following month. In my personal opinion, for this publication, the logical coherence must be very consistent, with no issues as long as there is innovation, fluency, and clarity.
