It took over a year in total, and though I was selected, it was really difficult. Friends who are pressed for time should consider carefully. After three rounds of evaluation, I feel like I've shed a layer of skin and am currently receiving intravenous therapy in the hospital.

A very large amount of data was accepted for publication, going through a process of resubmission and three rounds of revisions. The peer review was very professional and rigorous, with many suggestions made regarding the usage and expression of specific professional vocabulary and concepts. The wording had to be very precise in order to pass the review, which posed a certain challenge for non-native English authors. However, usage issues with individual words would not affect the submission outcome, as the main focus is on the recognition of the research work. The journal has a good reputation, but its current level of influence seems to be slightly disappointing for the high standards and requirements of the editors and reviewers.

Is the review process fast?

It is an authoritative journal in the old professional field. It took nearly a year for the first attempt. The reviewers were indeed professional, giving us nearly 100 comments. The editor therefore gave us a rejection and resubmission. After burying our heads and revising for 4 months, we resubmitted and went through several rounds of revisions before finally being accepted. The journal is okay, but the value for money is really not high!

Although they rejected me, the reviewing speed was excellent.

It is possible that the editor forgot to upload the attachment, just send an email to inquire. A few days ago, our research group also had a similar situation. We replied from the rework email, explained the situation, and the editor will resend the attachment.

My review comments are in the form of an attachment, not in the email sent by the editor. However, there is no link to the attachment in the system, so I still cannot see the reviewers' comments. What should I do?

Submitted at the end of July 2024, currently undergoing major revisions, with overall feedback not exceeding 3 pages.

I have already written four reminder letters, but they are completely useless as none of the editors have responded. If there is no response by the beginning of next month, I plan to write directly to the editor-in-chief. Even if I am rejected, I will still express my anger!

The submission made on January 21, 2014 is still under review. Twenty-two reviewers were invited, three accepted the review invitation, but only one provided feedback. Two reminders have been sent, both of which received official responses. Is there any solution to this situation?

Having been rejected and resubmitted, it has been three months since the resubmission. In the past month, there have been no invitations from the reviewers on WeChat, and there have been no changes. Should I consider following up on the submission?

It seems that the edited version was sent for external review on the first day after the changes were made, and the subsequent reviews were also quite fast.

It has been submitted for review, and it will be returned for revisions within two months after the external review.

Will all authors receive a confirmation email after submitting to this journal?

My manuscript has been with the editor for a month, and it still hasn't been submitted for review. Looks like there's no hope.

It has been a month with the editor, still no response. How about yours?

Teachers speak highly of the journal, believing it is a leader in the field. My manuscript is still under external review, and I am not sure what the acceptance rate will be.

Brother, how are you doing now? I changed the editor 6 days after submitting, and it has been half a month now, still with editor

AFM in the field of flux is equivalent to SBB in the field of soil, at the same level, that is, the industry recognized as the first, mainly very professional, with a very stable impact factor 5 or even 8 years ago, a particularly classic journal, industry recognized (many agricultural and forestry university journals are also classified as the first echelon, excluding CNS), strict review, and manuscript quantity always under control (which is also the reason why the impact factor does not increase). In the long run, it is very worth investing in and will become popular like GCB sooner or later

AFM is at least on par with SBB, or even higher, especially in numerical simulation and theoretical research. The level of AFM is very high.
However, the two journals are in different fields, with SBB being more focused on soil chemistry, experiments, and statistical analysis. AFM is more focused on atmospheric modeling, usually studying larger scales

This is harder to catch than SBB

The overlapping submission goals of these two journals are not very high, they are not in the same direction, and their comparability is not high. The top journal SBB Soil Science tends to focus on small-scale soil biology and biochemistry, while the top journal AFM Agriculture and Forestry tends to focus on large-scale meteorology, agriculture, and forestry interactions. There aren't so many levels, exaggerating with several levels is too much. If forced to compare, SBB is about half a level better than AFM, and AFM is about half a level better than Geoderma. It's about the same

Do you mean that SBB is slightly better than Geodeoma or AFM is slightly better than Geoderma?

Can someone please explain to me what it means when the date on a publication with the editor changes? Does it mean the editor-in-chief has been replaced, or the editorial direction has changed? Or is it a sign of impending rejection? I'm so nervous ?
