Aims and Scope
Aquatic Toxicology publishes significant contributions that increase the understanding of the impact of harmful substances (including natural and synthetic chemicals) on aquatic organisms and ecosystems.

Aquatic Toxicology considers both laboratory and field studies with a focus on marine/ freshwater environments. We strive to attract high quality original scientific papers, critical reviews and expert opinion papers in the following areas: Effects of harmful substances on molecular, cellular, sub-organismal, organismal, population, community, and ecosystem level; Toxic Mechanisms; Genetic disturbances, transgenerational effects, behavioral and adaptive responses; Impacts of harmful substances on structure, function of and services provided by aquatic ecosystems; Mixture toxicity assessment; Statistical approaches to predict exposure to and hazards of contaminants

The journal also considers manuscripts in other areas, such as the development of innovative concepts, approaches, and methodologies, which promote the wider application of toxicological datasets to the protection of aquatic environments and inform ecological risk assessments and decision making by relevant authorities.

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
The magazine has high language requirements. This is my first toxicology experiment article. It was submitted in early August 2020 and remained in the "with editor" status for a month, then under review for two months. Finally, in early November, it received major revision suggestions. The reviewer's comments were very professional, and it took two months to make the revisions. It has been with the editor for a month now and is currently under review, but I still don't know any news.

I decided to submit to this journal originally because the website of the Journal claimed to have fast response times for feedback, but I didn't expect it to take this long. However, the expert's suggestions were very good, and I feel like I have made progress.

In the second round of review, it took a month to be in the "with editor" status. After another month of being "under review," my minor revisions were finally accepted for publication. The reviewers were truly amazing, helping me with language issues sentence by sentence! Thus, it took over 5 months for this article to be accepted!
