Journal Guide

Island Arc provides an opportunity for the prompt, international and high-standard publication of research from all fields of solid earth geosciences. Papers which discuss the interaction between the solid earth, atmosphere, and water bodies are also welcome. The journal has a particularly good track record in publishing results of studies related to convergent plate margins and to the Pacific and Asian regions. The Journal publishes peer-reviewed articles and reviews. Original scientific articles, of a maximum length of 15 printed pages, are published promptly with a standard publication time from submission of 8 months. Articles describing new and important results are given priority and will be published a minimum of 4 months after submission. All articles are peer reviewed by at least two researchers expert in the field of the submitted paper.

Islets is the first international, peer-reviewed research journal that will publish manuscripts on all aspects of clinical and experimental research into the physiology and pathology of the Islets of Langerhans and related topics. We are interested in manuscripts that report new information or insights into any aspects of these micro organs.Every year nearly 2000 papers that directly (or indirectly) examine the Islets of Langerhans are published in over 50 different journals. It is now the time to create a forum dedicated to the critical understanding of the Islets of Langerhans. The goal is to foster communication and a rapid exchange of information through timely publication of important results using traditional (print) as well as electronic formats (online). Islets will provide a platform for scientists, clinical researchers and physicians alike.Categories of manuscripts include original research (full length and short communications), reviews, addenda of articles published in other journals, commentaries and meeting reports. All manuscripts are sent for in depth peer review, however, the editorial board will consider reviewer reports from submissions to leading journals such as Nature, Nature Medicine, Science, Cell, Cell Metabolism, JAMA, Diabetes, Transplantation and Lancet for accelerated review. Our goal is for Islets to become the leading journal in the field of islet research.

Isokinetics and Exercise Science (IES) is an international journal devoted to the study of theoretical and applied aspects of human muscle performance. Since isokinetic dynamometry constitutes the major tool in this area, the journal takes a particular interest in exploring the considerable potential of this technology.Isokinetics and Exercise Science publishes studies associated with the methodology of muscle performance especially with respect to the issues of reproducibility and validity of testing, description of normal and pathological mechanical parameters which are derivable from muscle testing, applications in basic research topics such as motor learning paradigms and electromyography. The journal also publishes studies on applications in clinical settings and technical aspects of the various measurement systems employed in human muscle performance research.Isokinetics and Exercise Science welcomes submissions in the form of research papers, reviews, case studies and technical reports from professionals in the fields of sports medicine, orthopaedic and neurological rehabilitation and exercise physiology.

The journal deals with all aspects of non-radioactive isotope application in environmental and health studies, such as: * investigations using variations in natural isotope abundance (isotope ecology, isotope hydrology, isotope geology) * stable isotope tracer techniques to follow the fate of certain substances in soil, water, plants, animals and in the human body * isotope effects, tracer theory, and mathematical modelling of environmental cycles * isotope measurement methods and equipment with respect to environmental and health research * diagnostic (stable) isotope application in medicine * ionogenic radiation exposure and its effects on all living matter as well as radiation in protection.

The fledgling State of Israel began to publish its scientific activity in 1951 under the general heading of Bulletin of the Research Council of Israel, which quickly split into sections to accommodate various fields in the growing academic community. In 1963, the Bulletin ceased publication and independent journals were born, with Section A becoming the new Israel Journal of Chemistry. The Israel Journal of Chemistry is the official journal of the Israel Chemical Society. Effective from Volume 50 (2010) it is published by Wiley-VCH. The Israel Journal of Chemistry is an international and peer-reviewed publication forum for Special Issues on timely research topics in all fields of chemistry: from biochemistry through organic and inorganic chemistry to polymer, physical and theoretical chemistry, including all interdisciplinary topics. Each topical issue is edited by one or several Guest Editors and primarily contains invited Review articles. Communications and Full Papers may be published occasionally, if they fit with the quality standards of the journal. The publication language is English and the journal is published six times a year. ISSN: 0021-2148 (print). 1869-5868 (online). CODEN: ISJCAT. Volume 51. 6 Issues in 2011. How to cite: To make sure that references to this journal are correctly recorded and resolved (for example in CrossRef or ISI Web of Science), please use the following abbreviated title in any citations: 'Isr. J. Chem.' (punctuation may vary according to the style of the citing journal).
