Journal Guide

The International Journal of Philosophical Studies (IJPS) publishes academic articles of the highest quality from both analytic and continental traditions and provides a forum for publishing on a broader range of issues than is currently available in philosophical journals. IJPS also publishes annual special issues devoted to key thematic areas or to critical engagements with contemporary philosophers of note. Through its Discussion section, it provides a lively forum for exchange of ideas and encourages dialogue and mutual comprehension across all philosophical traditions. The journal also contains an extensive book review section, including occasional book symposia. It also provides Critical Notices which review major books or themes in depth. The broad range of IJPS makes it essential reading for professionals in all fields of philosophy, for graduate students and for all those who take an interest in philosophical questions and their historical development. Peer Review Policy: 'Articles published in General Issues of the journal, except for occasional specially invited pieces, have undergone peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by two anonymous referees. Some articles published in Special Issues of the journal are also on invitation. Where a call for papers is issued for Special Issues, submissions passed for review by the Issue Editor are subject to the same review process as submissions to General Issues.'

An Official Journal of the Association for Environmental Health and Science and the International Phytotechnology Society. 2009 Impact Factor: 1.321Ranking: 109/181 (Environmental Sciences)2009 5-Year Impact Factor: 1.852Ranking: 84/181 (Environmental Sciences)169; 2010 Thomson Reuters, Journal Citation Reports174; The International Journal of Phytoremediation is the first journal devoted to the publication of current laboratory and field research describing the use of plant systems to remediate contaminated environments. Phytoremediation refers to a diverse group of green technologies that use either naturally occurring or genetically engineered plants to decontaminate polluted air, soil, and water. Phytoremediation technologies currently fall into the following five categories:PhytodegradationPhytostabilizationPhytovolatizationPhytoextraction, including rhizofiltrationEnhanced rhizosphere biodegradation The journal is an international, peer-reviewed publication designed to link professionals in the many environmental disciplines involved in the development, application, management, and regulation of emerging phytoremediation technologies. Manuscripts will be considered that address any of a wide range of issues and interests associated with the entire field of phytoremediation. High quality, original articles make up the primary content, with additional contributions as technical notes, short communications, editorials, and occasional invited review articles. Prior to publication, manuscripts must pass a rigorous peer review process managed by the editor-in-chief. The journal also publishes letters to the editor, book/software reviews, new products and patent information, and announcements of upcoming conferences and courses.The scope of the International Journal of Phytoremediation includes:Use of phytoremediation processes for environmental restoration.Hybrid technologies combining chemical, physical, and/or other biological processes with phytoremediation.Any stage of technology development and validation, from basic laboratory research and bench-scale testing to pilot-and full-scale field application.Field applications or descriptions of the effects of contaminants and other forms of stress on phytoremediation systems.Examinations of the social framework for phytoremediation, including regulatory, economic, and public perception issues.
