It is a rogue journal. A major revision was made once, and a second minor revision was made due to the language issues. It was revised by a language editing company and it was rejected the next day after submission, saying that it was not innovative enough. Why have you waited so long? It wasted us nearly half a year.

The result of the first reviews was received in more than 40 days, and the notification of acceptance was received 15 days after the major revision. It took a total of three months. The speed is quite fast, which is not bad. The review speed is not bad, but this is a quarterly journal, which publishes every three months. Not bad!

Journal of Applied Remote Sensing is indeed a quarterly journal, but the review speed is not as slow as it is said. Approximately 2 months it took for the first review and 1 month it took for the major revision. It took about 3–4 months from submission to acceptance. 2019.8.6 Submission. 2019.10.10 Review comments were given for the first review which requested major revisions. One month was given for the revision. I was delayed by something, so I applied for an extension of 15 days. 2019.11.18 Returned after revision. 2019.12.13 Accepted. Overall, it has a good efficiency, a good innovation and professional review comments.

Do we still have to wait this long after submission for review?

Could I please check on the status of my manuscript submission? It has been seven days since I submitted it and the status is currently "Under Review."

The pictures need to be uploaded separately into the system. Surprisingly, the initial review feedback received promptly was actually edited by one person, which is a very important step, and the editor is very rigorous and serious.

After submitting the article, will I need to extract the images and submit them separately to the system? Should the images and captions in the article be retained?

Please upload the paper. How should the data code section behind be declared? Do we need to upload the code?

Is this journal currently open access?

Not necessarily, it could be that we cannot find a reviewer.

The status has been constantly changing between "Contacting Potential Reviewers" and "under review," is this situation basically hopeless?

(0) Thank | cjwdmah

One accept, one reject. The editor gave a reject, wasting more than a month of time. There are too many submissions to this journal, so it is advisable to submit cautiously, just like in love, the more fish there are, the more choices there will be.

I also want to ask, why is this thing so slow?

(0) Thank | wwq5

The time I provided above should be clear. I have received the second review, but it needs some minor adjustments. It will take about half a month.

(0) Thank | wwq5

Could you please explain why there were two instances of entering the "Decision Pending Editor Approval" stage after the decision started? I'm feeling really anxious.

Is the second review in this state "Can be made acceptable, dependent on revision"? Also, how long does it usually take to receive feedback after minor revisions are completed?

What's wrong with S13 journal? It's been three days and there's still no quality check. Be cautious about submitting manuscripts, it's probably going to take another month to hear back from them.
