Verified Reviews

Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.

First received the comments from the review, about 3 months just passed, and after the major revisions were completed, it took about 6 months to accept. Domestic authors can call to urge the submission, and the teachers are very nice and will not reject the submission because of the urging. As a leading journal in the field of geography in China, it is now a Tier 2 journal of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the impact factor has also increased. I hope the journal can have even greater development!

The review process is slow, and I have been patiently waiting. Today, I received an acceptance notice, but it requires improving the English and providing either expert editing or a language company certification. I feel puzzled because I have already asked a foreign senior student from the same department to check the grammar, and the teacher has also made revisions. I don't know if it counts or not. Can anyone explain whether this is necessary or not?
