I want to ask, how many days does it take for this journal to go from being with the editor to external review?

(0) 讚！ | 小灰灰呀

Submission in November 21st, acceptance in February 23rd of the following year.
Time: It takes a long time, not recommended if you want quick acceptance, it's too slow.
Quality: The quality of the paper is decent, the reviewers are very thorough, but also slow.
Overall: Not bad, just slow, and the ranking is a bit low.

It has been half a month in the editorial department, and I don't know what the situation is.

It took 2.5 months to complete the review process.
There were 30 comments from two reviewers.
We made the necessary revisions honestly and thoroughly.
After another round of external review, the revised manuscript will be returned to the editor in three days.
The editor accepted the revised version after four days.
Good luck.

Accidentally discovered this journal, and surprisingly, the reviewing process is quite fast. They provided feedback in just one month, which was quite constructive, and after minor revisions, it was accepted within two weeks.

Diligent and responsible reviewer!

The review process was quite fast, and the three reviewers provided many important comments. The reviewers' expertise was all very high. After making the necessary revisions based on the reviewers' suggestions, it was accepted for publication.

A junior fellow student had submitted to this journal before, originally for graduation purposes, but had a stroke of bad luck and got rejected. Generally speaking, open-access journals are usually faster in terms of publication speed. For example, I have served as an editor for MDPI and Hindawi, and the review process typically takes around 1-3 months, which is acceptable. However, it took a whole 7 months for this journal to accept the submission, with the initial review comments returning after 4 months. This is similar to non-open-access journals. Additionally, they also charge publication fees, which is a bit disappointing. For similar journals in the field of natural hazards that are non-open-access, one can consider submitting to "Natural Hazards". The time is reasonable, and I often review submissions for it, usually taking about half a year. As for open-access journals in the same field, such as "Frontiers in Environmental Science" and "Remote Sensing" where I serve as an editor, the review process takes around 1 month, and the publication fees are similar. Moreover, the editorial teams are willing to offer discounts, and the speed is quite fast. I welcome colleagues in the field of disaster research to exchange and learn from each other. You can contact me via WeChat at "scipersistence". Manuscript submissions are welcome.

Three rounds of review, five reviewers. It took nearly half a year. It is not easy, and the time is long. It is advisable to carefully consider submitting to journals that prioritize short turnaround times.

How is your thesis? Has it been accepted?

The paper has been submitted for the fourth review, and it has been a total of 9 months since the beginning. The outcome is still unknown. The reviewing process has been extremely slow, while others seem to receive their reviews much faster (within 3-4 months). The reason for this is unknown.

This is already the third time entering the external review. I submitted it at the end of November last year, and it entered the third external review on July 2nd this year. I feel it's very frustrating, but withdrawing the submission will result in a loss. It was useful to read more comments before submitting, but at that time, I only thought it would be a slow process, I didn't expect it to be this slow. There have been a lot of opinions throughout the process. Being rejected delays half a year or even a year of time.

I saw on the forum that it was said to be easy to get published. I submitted it in early December last year and gave feedback during the Chinese New Year. Two experts suggested major revisions, and after making the modifications, I submitted it again in early March. It went through a second round of external review by three experts, and the results came back in mid-June this year. There were minor revisions suggested, and I resubmitted it by the end of June. The current status is unknown. I just want to say it is too slow. It has already taken a whole seven months, and there is still no result. Other journals that I submitted to at the same time have accepted articles much faster. I am in a hurry to graduate and there were also many revision suggestions. It doesn't feel as good as it was rumored to be.

Four days after submission, the status of the articles changed to “editor's decision in process”. What does it mean? Is it going to be rejected?

The journal is slow to review and is speechless. The article is almost one year before and after, the first trial is six months, the second trial is six months, and the cautious submission is urgently submitted.

This paper is our new interdisciplinary study. We had tried several geosciences journals but were always rejected because the topic is out of the scope of the journal. This journal accepted it and the speed of review was very fast. The first review took two months and requested major revision. After we submitted the revision, the paper was accepted the next day. The editor-in-chief also specifically mentioned in an email that the journal is working on speeding up the review process, and I think they have done well.
