Ecological Monographs

Journal Title：Ecological Monographs

The vision for Ecological Monographs is that it should be the place for publishing integrative, synthetic papers that elaborate new directions for the field of ecology.

Original Research Papers published in Ecological Monographs will continue to document complex observational, experimental, or theoretical studies that by their very integrated nature defy dissolution into shorter publications focused on a single topic or message.

Reviews will be comprehensive and synthetic papers that establish new benchmarks in the field, define directions for future research, contribute to fundamental understanding of ecological principles, and derive principles for ecological management in its broadest sense (including, but not limited to: conservation, mitigation, restoration, and pro-active protection of the environment). Reviews should reflect the full development of a topic and encompass relevant natural history, observational and experimental data, analyses, models, and theory. Reviews published in Ecological Monographs should further blur the boundaries between “basic” and “applied” ecology.

Concepts and Synthesis papers will conceptually advance the field of ecology. These papers are expected to go well beyond works being reviewed and include discussion of new directions, new syntheses, and resolutions of old questions.

In this world of rapid scientific advancement and never-ending environmental change, there needs to be room for the thoughtful integration of scientific ideas, data, and concepts that feeds the mind and guides the development of the maturing science of ecology. Ecological Monographs provides that room, with an expansive view to a sustainable future.

《生態專著》的愿景是，它應該成為發表綜合性、綜合性論文的地方，這些論文闡述了生態學領域的新方向。

《生態專著》上發表的原創研究論文將繼續記錄復雜的觀察、實驗或理論研究，這些研究由于其高度綜合的性質，無法分解為專注于單一主題或信息的較短出版物。

評論將是綜合性的綜合性論文，它們為該領域建立了新的基準，確定了未來研究的方向，有助于從根本上理解生態原則，并得出最廣泛意義上的生態管理原則（包括但不限于：保護、緩解、恢復和主動保護環境）。評論應反映主題的全面發展，并涵蓋相關的自然歷史、觀察和實驗數據、分析、模型和理論。《生態專著》上發表的評論應進一步模糊“基礎”和“應用”生態學之間的界限。

概念和綜合論文將在概念上推動生態學領域的發展。這些論文有望超越正在審查的作品，包括對新方向、新綜合和舊問題解決方案的討論。

在這個科學進步迅速、環境變化永無止境的世界里，需要有空間來深思熟慮地整合科學思想、數據和概念，以滋養思想并指導生態學日趨成熟的發展。《生態專著》提供了這樣的空間，為可持續的未來提供了廣闊的視野。

Ecological Monographs創刊于1931年，由Wiley-Blackwell出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋環境科學 - 生態學全領域，在行業領域中學術影響力很大，屬于國際一流期刊，關注度和專業度非常高，所以對原創文章要求創新性很高，過審難度很高，如果您有志于一流期刊，建議關注此刊。平均審稿速度 約3.0個月 ，影響因子指數7.1，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
