Anweisungen für Autoren

Unter Verschmutzung versteht man die Einbringung von Schadstoffen in die Umwelt. Die Verschmutzung wird in punktuelle Verschmutzung und nicht punktuelle Verschmutzung unterteilt. Landverschmutzung, Luftverschmutzung, Lärmbelästigung, Wasserverschmutzung usw. sind Arten von Verschmutzung. Unter Luftverschmutzung versteht man die Einbringung von Partikeln, biologischen Molekülen oder anderen schädlichen Gasen in die Erdatmosphäre, die Krankheiten, den Tod von Menschen, Umweltschäden an anderen lebenden Organismen wie Nahrungspflanzen oder der natürlichen oder bebauten Umwelt verursachen. Luftverschmutzung kann aus anthropogenen oder natürlichen Quellen stammen.

Aufgrund der schädlichen Freisetzung überhitzter Flüssigkeiten in Gewässer herrscht thermische Verschmutzung vor. Die Umwelttoxikologie wird auch Entox genannt. Der Eintrag von Abfallstoffen in die Meere ist Meeresverschmutzung. Als Amphibien werden kaltblütige Wirbeltiere einer Amphibienklasse bezeichnet, zu der Frösche, Amphibien, Molche, Eidechsen und Blindfische gehören. Der Hauptbestandteil des Erdgases ist Methan, das farb- und geruchlos ist und das einfachste Alkan mit der chemischen Formel CH ₄ ist . Jede Verschmutzung, die ihren Ursprung in den industriellen Aktivitäten hat, kann als industrielle Verschmutzung bezeichnet werden. Der in der Ölindustrie vorherrschende Begriff ist „Pollution Damage“. Dabei handelt es sich um die versehentliche Einleitung von Öl vom Schiff in das Gewässer.

Die Grundgebühr für die Artikelbearbeitung oder Manuskriptbearbeitungskosten entspricht dem oben genannten Preis. Sie kann jedoch je nach umfangreicher Bearbeitung, Farbeffekten, komplexen Gleichungen und zusätzlicher Verlängerung von Nr. variieren. Anzahl der Seiten des Artikels usw.

Schneller redaktioneller Überprüfungsprozess

Das Journal of Pollution Effects & Control nimmt am Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process) mit einer zusätzlichen Vorauszahlung von 99 US-Dollar zusätzlich zur regulären Artikelbearbeitungsgebühr teil. Der schnelle redaktionelle Ausführungs- und Überprüfungsprozess ist ein spezieller Service für den Artikel, der es ihm ermöglicht, in der Vorprüfungsphase schneller eine Antwort vom behandelnden Redakteur sowie eine Bewertung vom Rezensenten zu erhalten. Ein Autor kann innerhalb von maximal 3 Tagen nach der Einreichung eine schnellere Antwort von der Vorbegutachtung erhalten und innerhalb von maximal 5 Tagen einen Überprüfungsprozess durch den Gutachter, gefolgt von einer Überarbeitung/Veröffentlichung in 2 Tagen. Wenn der Artikel vom zuständigen Redakteur zur Überarbeitung benachrichtigt wird, dauert die externe Begutachtung durch den vorherigen Rezensenten oder alternativen Rezensenten weitere 5 Tage.

Acceptance of manuscripts is driven entirely by handling editorial team considerations and independent peer-review, ensuring the highest standards are maintained no matter the route to regular peer-reviewed publication or a fast editorial review process. The handling editor and the article contributor are responsible for adhering to scientific standards. The article FEE-Review process of $99 will not be refunded even if the article is rejected or withdrawn for publication.

The corresponding author or institution/organization is responsible for making the manuscript FEE-Review Process payment. The additional FEE-Review Process payment covers the fast review processing and quick editorial decisions, and regular article publication covers the preparation in various formats for online publication, securing full-text inclusion in a number of permanent archives like HTML, XML, and PDF, and feeding to different indexing agencies.

Tables

These should be used at a minimum and designed as simple as possible. We strongly encourage authors to submit tables as .doc format. Tables are to be typed double-spaced throughout, including headings and footnotes. Each table should be on a separate page, numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals and supplied with a heading and a legend. Tables should be self-explanatory without reference to the text. Preferably, the details of the methods used in the experiments should be described in the legend instead of in the text. The same data should not be presented in both table and graph form or repeated in the text. Cells can be copied from an Excel spreadsheet and pasted into a word document, but Excel files should not be embedded as objects.

Note: If the submission is in PDF format, the author is requested to retain the same in .doc format in order to aid in completion of process successfully.

Figures

The preferred file formats for photographic images are .doc, TIFF and JPEG. If you have created images with separate components on different layers, please send us the Photoshop files.All images must be at or above intended display size, with the following image resolutions: Line Art 800 dpi, Combination (Line Art + Halftone) 600 dpi, Halftone 300 dpi. See the Image quality specifications chart for details. Image files also must be cropped as close to the actual image as possible.Use Arabic numerals to designate figures and upper case letters for their parts (Figure 1). Begin each legend with a title and include sufficient description so that the figure is understandable without reading the text of the manuscript. Information given in legends should not be repeated in the text.

Figure legends

These should be typed in numerical order on a separate sheet.

Tables and Equations as Graphics

If equations cannot be encoded in MathML, submit them in TIFF or EPS format as discrete files (i.e., a file containing only the data for one equation). Only when tables cannot be encoded as XML/SGML can they be submitted as graphics. If this method is used, it is critical that the font size in all equations and tables is consistent and legible throughout all submissions.

• Suggested Equation Extraction Method
• Table Specifications
• Equation Specifications

Supplementary Information

 Discrete items of the Supplementary Information (for example, figures, tables) referred to at an appropriate point in the main text of the paper.Summary diagram/figure included as part of the Supplementary Information (optional).All Supplementary Information is supplied as a single PDF file, where possible. File size within the permitted limits for Supplementary Information. Images should be a maximum size of 640 x 480 pixels (9 x 6.8 inches at 72 pixels per inch).
