Aims and Scope
The journal Ecological Informatics is devoted to the publication of high quality, peer-reviewed articles on all aspects of computational ecology, data science and biogeography. The scope of the journal takes into account the data-intensive nature of ecology, the growing capacity of information technology to access, harness and leverage complex data as well as the critical need for informing sustainable management in view of global environmental and climate change.

The nature of the journal is interdisciplinary at the crossover between ecology and informatics. It focuses on novel concepts and techniques for image- and genome-based monitoring and interpretation, sensor- and multimedia-based data acquisition, internet-based data archiving and sharing, data assimilation, modelling and prediction of ecological data.

The review speed was very fast, and the submission was pleasant. It took two and a half months to be accepted (the actual review time may have been only two months, as the remaining half month was due to personal travel and not submitting). The impact factor has increased to 5.1 this year, with great potential to be promoted to the second tier. Moreover, it is possible to choose non-OA (Open Access).
