The Journal of Cleaner Production serves as a transdisciplinary, international forum for the exchange of information and research concepts, policies, and technologies designed to help ensure progress towards making societies and regions more sustainable. It aims to encourage innovation and creativity, new and improved products, and the implementation of new, cleaner structures, systems, processes, products and services. It is also designed to stimulate the development and implementation of prevention oriented governmental policies and educational programmes.Cleaner production is a concept that goes beyond simple pollution control. It involves active research and development into new structures, systems, processes, materials and products that are more resource and energy efficient, whilst engaging and empowering people. Such approaches have become necessary for businesses, institutions, governments, and civil society to ensure ecologically, socially,and economically sustainable, consumption production and service strategies. These involve educational, training, management, and technical assistance programs, which are needed to accelerate the adoption of cleaner production and sustainability by industries, governments and universities.Authors are invited to submit papers from the following areas:Industrial Applications including:• Toxics use reduction in product design, process development and in the usage and end-of-life management phases of products• New and novel uses of materials and technologies• Improved processes through development and usage of "environmentally friendlier" technologies• Advances in Green Chemistry, Green Engineering and Green Architecture• Improved process automation and controlEnvironmental Management Initiatives:• Improvements in the integration of environmental management systems• Improvements in the integration of environmental, quality, health and safety and corporate social responsibility management• Improved life cycle management of products and services• Improvements in holistic environmental performance evaluation• Improvements in environmental reviewing, auditing and reporting• Advances in life cycle assessment and life cycle management• Advances in risk reduction• Advances in reduction of the life cycle usage of energy, water and other materials• Advances in applications of renewable energy and other low-carbon technologies and products• Improvements in corporate social responsibility• Advances in corporate sustainability reporting• Advances in Industrial Ecology and Regional Sustainable DevelopmentLegislation, Policy and Regulations:• Improved regulatory and policy initiatives designed to promote implementation of proactive and preventive approaches throughout society• Advanced governmental policies and programmes to promote the transition to sustainable societiesEducation, Training and Learning:• Improved educational & training initiatives on values, paradigms, concepts and tools to help societies make the transition to sustainable societies.
The Journal of Coastal Conservation is a scientific journal for the dissemination of both theoretical and applied research on integrated and sustainable management of the terrestrial, coastal and marine environmental interface. A thorough understanding of both the physical and the human sciences is important to the study of the spatial patterns and processes observed in terrestrial, coastal and marine systems set in the context of past, present and future social and economic developments. This includes multidisciplinary and integrated knowledge and understanding of: physical geography, coastal geomorphology, sediment dynamics, hydrodynamics, soil science, hydrology, plant and animal ecology, vegetation science, biogeography, landscape ecology, recreation and tourism studies, urban and human ecology, coastal engineering and spatial planning, coastal zone management, and marine resource management. Environmental applications that make use of spatial information technology (IT) to collect, analyse, interpret, visualise, and communicate the results of scientific research are also encouraged. This includes the use of remote sensing, Geographical Information Systems (GIS), environmental databases, Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and mobile technologies, cartography and digital mapping, geovisualisation, modelling and simulation, and the Internet. Applications that focus on the use of physical coastal modelling involving the detailing of the design, construction, instrumentation and results of model tests are also encouraged, including the theory, measurement, analysis and modelling of: Waves - generation, theories, prediction: Structures - types, interactions and structural responses: Measurement Techniques - pressures, velocities, and forces: Erosion/Scour – assessment and control: Scale Effects – control and techniques: and Natural Hazards Assessment. Research that promotes the role of education and, training to integrated and sustainable management of the terrestrial, coastal and marine conservation and management is also considered important to the coastal practitioner and manager. International contributions to the journal are encouraged. Thematic volumes and output from conference proceedings are also welcome.
The Journal of Contaminant Hydrology is an international journal publishing scientific articles pertaining to the contamination of groundwater. Emphasis is placed on investigations of the physical, chemical, and biological processes influencing the behaviour of organic and inorganic contaminants in both the unsaturated (vadose) and saturated zones. Articles on contamination of surface water are not included unless they specifically deal with the link between surface water and groundwater.The journal's scope embraces a wide range of topics including: experimental investigations of contaminant sorption, diffusion, transformation, volatilization and transport in the unsaturated and saturated zones; characterization of soil and aquifer properties only as they influence contaminant behaviour; development and testing of mathematical models of contaminant behaviour; innovative techniques for restoration of contaminated sites; and development of new tools or techniques for monitoring the extent of soil and groundwater contamination.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

A British Ecological Society journal, the Journal of Ecology publishes original research papers on all aspects of the ecology of plants (including algae), in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.
Journal of Economic Entomology is published bimonthly in February, April, June, August, October, and December. The journal publishes articles on the economic significance of insects and is divided into the following sections: apiculture & social insects, arthropods in relation to plant disease, insecticide resistance and resistance management; ecotoxicology; biological and microbial control; ecology and behavior; sampling and Biostatistics; household and structural insects; medical entomology; veterinary entomology; extension; forest entomology; horticultural entomology; field and forage crops, and small grains; stored-product and Quarantine entomology; plant resistance. The journal currently has six coeditors.
The journal publishes papers covering all areas of environmental sciences, environmental pollution and related disciplines. Other areas are toxicology in relation to plants, animals and men including general toxicology, reproduction toxicology, metabolism and mechanism of action, safety assessment, clinical and veterinary toxicology, ecophusiology, biodiversity, risk assessment, risk management, cleaner technology, behavioral toxicology, experimental toxicology of pharmaceutical, surgical, food, agricultural and industrial products, impact assessment of pollution, responses to toxic agents and community.
The Journal publishes original articles in the English language based on the research work of academic institutes in Russia and CIS. The Journal welcomes original works in thermophysics from various countries. The Journal focuses on experimental work, theory, analysis, and computational studies for better understanding of engineering and environmental aspects of thermophysics. The editorial board encourages the authors to submit papers with emphasis on new scientific aspects in experimental and visualization techniques, mathematical models of thermophysical process, energy, and environmental applications.
