Ichnos-an International Journal For Plant And Animal Traces

Journal Title：Ichnos-an International Journal For Plant And Animal Traces

The foremost aim of Ichnos is to promote excellence in ichnologic research. Primary emphases center upon the ethologic and ecologic significance of tracemaking organisms; organism-substrate interrelationships; and the role of biogenic processes in environmental reconstruction, sediment dynamics, sequence or event stratigraphy, biogeochemistry, and sedimentary diagenesis. Each contribution rests upon a firm taxonomic foundation, although papers dealing solely with systematics and nomenclature may have less priority than those dealing with conceptual and interpretive aspects of ichnology. Contributions from biologists and geologists are equally welcome.

The format for Ichnos is designed to accommodate several types of manuscripts, including Research Articles (comprehensive articles dealing with original, fundamental research in ichnology), and Short Communications (short, succinct papers treating certain aspects of the history of ichnology, book reviews, news and notes, or invited comments dealing with current or contentious issues). The large page size and two-column format lend flexibility to the design of tables and illustrations. Thorough but timely reviews and rapid publication of manuscripts are integral parts of the process.

Ichnos 的首要目標是促進遺跡研究的卓越性。主要重點是追蹤生物的行為學和生態學意義；生物-基質相互關系；以及生物過程在環境重建、沉積物動力學、序列或事件地層學、生物地球化學和沉積成巖作用中的作用。每篇投稿都建立在堅實的分類學基礎之上，盡管僅涉及系統學和命名學的論文可能不如涉及遺跡學概念和解釋方面的論文優先。生物學家和地質學家的投稿同樣受歡迎。

Ichnos 的格式旨在容納幾種類型的手稿，包括研究文章（涉及遺跡學原創、基礎研究的綜合文章）和簡短通訊（簡短、簡潔的論文，涉及遺跡學歷史的某些方面、書評、新聞和筆記，或處理當前或有爭議問題的受邀評論）。大頁面尺寸和雙欄格式為表格和插圖的設計提供了靈活性。全面而及時的審閱和快速發表稿件是這一流程不可或缺的一部分。

Ichnos-an International Journal For Plant And Animal Traces創刊于1990年，由Taylor and Francis Ltd.出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋PALEONTOLOGY全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 12周，或約稿 ，影響因子指數0.8，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。
