Aims and Scope
AME is international and interdisciplinary. It presents rigorously refereed and carefully selected Research Articles, Reviews and Notes, as well as Comments/Reply Comments (for details see AME 27:209), Opinion Pieces (previously called 'As I See It') and AME Specials. For details consult the Guidelines for Authors. Papers may be concerned with:

Tolerances and responses of microorganisms to variations in abiotic and biotic components of their environment; microbial life under extreme environmental conditions (climate, temperature, pressure, osmolarity, redox, etc.).
Role of aquatic microorganisms in the production, transformation and decomposition of organic matter; flow patterns of energy and matter as these pass through microorganisms; population dynamics; trophic interrelationships; modelling, both theoretical and via computer simulation, of individual microorganisms and microbial populations; biodiversity.
Absorption and transformation of inorganic material; synthesis and transformation of organic material (autotrophic and heterotrophic); non-genetic and genetic adaptation; behaviour; molecular microbial ecology; symbioses.

Verified Reviews

AME is a more established magazine, although in recent years, it has been affected by OA, resulting in a decrease in impact factor. However, the professionalism and seriousness of the reviewers have not diminished at all. The first review took two months, with two minor revisions and one major revision. The responsible editor agreed with the major revision suggestions and provided many other suggestions, including formatting citations and creating charts. About a month after the revision meeting, the feedback was returned, requesting minor revisions. A few days later, it was returned again, and one week later, it was accepted. It has now been published. The process from submission to publication took approximately 7 months. I am speechless about the classification in the Chinese Academy of Sciences, as even the upgraded version has been downgraded to the fourth tier. Well, whatever you say, that's how it is. Anyway, you wouldn't understand.
