2Submission and Assignment to an Issue

Manuscripts are accepted throughout the year, and there is no submission deadline for a particular issue. After peer review, revision, final editorial evaluation, and production, an accepted manuscript is assigned to an upcoming issue.

The Editor in Chief sets the order of publication on the basis of the accepted date, the geographic distribution of the authors, and the thematic issue, as described in the Peer Review Process. Authors who wish to submit a manuscript should first read the Author Guidelines.

3Number of Articles per Issue

The number of articles in an issue depends on how many manuscripts have completed the review process by the time the issue is prepared.

Issue capacity does not influence editorial decisions

A manuscript is accepted or rejected on the basis of its scientific merit or novelty, its fit with the focus and scope of the journal, the absence of plagiarism, and the outcome of peer review. The size of an issue is never a reason to accept or to reject a manuscript.

4Editorial Timeline

The journal uses double blind peer review, and each research article is reviewed by at least two expert reviewers. The time between submission and an editorial decision depends on the factors below, so no fixed duration is guaranteed.

Factor	How it affects the timeline
Availability of reviewers	Finding qualified reviewers and receiving their reports can take longer in some fields.
Complexity of the manuscript	Longer or more technical manuscripts need more time for a careful evaluation.
Revisions by the authors	The time that authors need to revise the manuscript is added to the total time.
Number of review rounds	Each additional round of review and revision extends the process.

Publication follows production, when an accepted manuscript has been placed in an issue.
