This work was polished for four months based on previous research before yielding results, and it took two months to write. Overall, being published in JGR-A as an NI journal is the best endorsement. When it comes to representing one's work, it is important to strive for publication in high reputation journals in the field. The reviewers assigned to this work were my peers, who were well-versed in the methodology details and provided very targeted suggestions for revisions. The revised results were more in line with reality and had a stronger rigor.

First submission to JGR: Atmospheres, the review process feels more rigorous than Elsevier's journals, but also slower. It took a total of 7 months from submission to acceptance, with two rounds of revisions in between. The reviewers were overall very professional, feeling like colleagues who were familiar with the research content. The assigned AE was excellent, with a quick handling speed and making decisions not solely based on reviewer opinions, but also providing their own insights

First submission to JGR-A, accepted after one major revision. The specific timeline is as follows:
Preliminary Manuscript Data Submitted 2023-03-23
Under Review 2023-04-04
Waiting for Revision 2023-05-22
Revision Received 2023-06-16
Under Review 2023-08-01 (Difficult to find reviewers during the summer, as they are all traveling)
Decision Made; Manuscript Ready for Production 2023-09-09 10:43:58

Overall, the review and editing process at JGR-A is strict in quality control. The comments from the three reviewers were constructive and greatly helped in improving the manuscript. Being accepted in JGR-A in the field of atmospheric chemistry makes me even happier than getting into ES&T. Although the Impact Factor is not high, the influence of this journal in the United States is still significant. I hope the journal continues to improve. The only complaint is that the review and editing process was indeed slow during the summer, so fellow researchers in a hurry to publish papers for graduation should be cautious when submitting, as AGU journals are slower compared to those under Elsevier and ACS

There are a total of 3 reviewers, with three rounds of revisions. In the first round, there were major revisions (two major and one minor). In the second round, there were minor revisions (one major, one minor, and one acceptance). In the third round, there were minor revisions (one minor and two acceptances). The paper was accepted and published after a total of 10 months. The review process for JGR-A is quite rigorous, with in-depth and meticulous questions raised, which indeed improved the quality of the paper. By responding well to the reviewers' comments, the paper will eventually be successfully published. Previously, I mainly published papers in JGR-B. This is the first time I have published a paper in JGR-A, and I feel very good about it. I will continue to publish papers in it in the future.

Brother, you said "shedding skin" so vividly. I totally agree. Has this journal been published in Zone 1? I really can't believe the antics of the Document Information Center. How did they manage to turn some "low-quality journals" into top-tier and Zone 1? I'm speechless.

There are three reviewers, one of whom is very strict. After three rounds of review, they still rejected it.

Each time I receive a new JGRA evaluation, I have a different feeling.

Agreed, there were four rounds of review, and the replies were longer than the article in the first two rounds. In the end, the article increased from 6000 to 8000 characters. The reviewers were all highly skilled and their opinions were very objective. Although the criticism was sharp and almost made me give up, I honestly replied to all the questions and the quality of the article improved significantly.

Highly acclaimed journals within the field are more recognized than ordinary Tier 1 journals (please take a seat). My personal representative works have been published in JGR-A, and it always feels like a struggle to submit each time. Unfortunately, the impact factor is too low, which has diminished my desire to submit any papers for the past two years.

The level of the nc articles is not necessarily higher than that of jgr. Most of the articles in the subsidiary journal focus on social impact, as for specific theories and fundamental knowledge, they are just average.

October 2020 submission
December 2020 major revisions after the first review (encountered an expert who delayed giving feedback until the end, unrelated to the journal's speed)
Returned after revisions in February 2020
Minor revisions based on the second review in April 2020
Returned after revisions in April 2020
Accepted directly after the third review in April 2020
The journal is excellent, a top-tier publication. The feedback from the reviewers was very professional and indeed improved the quality of the article. It took two months for all the revisions. It was my first submission to JGRA, and the experience was great. I will continue to submit in the future, hoping for continued good luck.

Submitted in March 2019, the first review took three months with two reviewers providing major revisions. After resubmission, it was accepted directly three months later.

A top journal in the field of atmospheric sciences, highly recognized by the industry, and treated as same level as Nature or Science series in many majors in schools! However, the IF is relatively low, not in line with its level! There are 3 articles published in the journal, each of which is strenuous, and it requires a high degree of innovation. There are 3 reviewers, all of which are experts in the field, and there are very few outsiders! The review cycle is long, and those who are anxious to graduate are not recommended submitting!

At the beginning, I submitted it to Geophysical Research Letters. Two of three reviewers accepted it, but another one said directly that the article was lacking in innovation. In the end, the editor rejected it but gave a channel to transfer to Journal of Geophysical Research. I then transferred it after adding a lot of content. Unexpectedly, it was accepted. But the editor required the revision of language issues twice, and accepted it. The requirements for language are very demanding, and sometimes the review period is very long.

You have to get a letter of acceptance before you can graduate. I submitted my article more than half a year in advance. It was submitted in early December and the first review turnaround time lasted a whole two months. There were originally three reviewers. It seemed that because one reviewer never responded, only review comments from two reviewers were given. One requested major revision and the other suggested minor revision to be made. After the revised submission, there was no news for another two months. At this time, the date of graduation was approaching closer and closer, I was thinking that in case there is a second review for another two months, I could not graduate. However, at the end of May, I suddenly received an email said that it was accepted directly. I was almost scared to death, and I graduated successfully in June. Those who are in a hurry to graduate, I suggest you to consider it seriously.

The second JGR, luck is better.I chose a relatively small entry point. I gave a re-submitment in the first trial for more than a month. I repaired it to the overhaul in more than two months, and repaired it in another month, and received it directly.The overall feeling, JGR review is more rigorous, but the influence factor has not been able to go up.

I submitted my paper to JGR a second time and it was successfully accepted. This paper is regarded as a foothold in this field. Two months after submitting my manuscript, the reviewer gave a high-level evaluation and agreed to accept minor revisions.

The group published a series of important papers in JGR-Atmospheres, and published papers on it.In general, JGR has high recognition in the industry and high quality of the articles, which can basically be taken out as a masterpiece.I hope that more work will be published in the future.
