Personally, I think LO and PO should be at the same level, maybe also including JGRoceans. DSR is also good, considered a longstanding publication, but its influence may be slightly lower than the previous ones.

What magazine is L&O?

2020.9.21 Submission;
2021.3.22 Reminder for submission;
2021.3.26 Minor revision by one reviewer, major revision by another reviewer;
2021.4.14 Revised;
2021.4.16 Accepted

The review process is too long. If it wasn't for sending a reminder message, I wouldn't know when there would be any updates. Earth science journals tend to be slow, as I previously submitted to LO Methods and it took half a year for the review. If you are in a hurry to graduate, it is not suitable to submit to this journal.

I have also been submitting DSR1 for half a year, it has been under review all along. Today, I couldn't bear it anymore and wrote a reminder to the editor. I previously submitted LO methods and also didn't receive any news for over four months. After sending a reminder, it was reviewed and returned within two weeks.

It took nearly a year from the review process to publication, which is relatively slow. However, it is worth it, even though the journal's ranking in the Chinese Academy of Sciences has dropped from Zone 2 to Zone 3. Deep Sea is a well-regarded journal in my field, and the advantage compared to the Frontier series is that it is free of charge. The reviewers were very professional, providing three opinions: two major revisions and one minor revision. As a newcomer, I feel that other international journals in the field of marine biology and ecology are of similar quality, except for L&O.
