Original text: 楼主,请问ERL大修后是直接接收,还是经过了小修后才接收的?

Translation: Excuse me, host, may I ask if ERL is directly accepted after major repairs or is it accepted only after minor repairs?

Overall, it is speeding up.

The translation of the text into English is: "The speed is too slow, it is not recommended for students who are in a hurry to graduate to invest."

I also have 8000 characters! May I ask what's next for the original poster? Mine has been in Editorial Assessment for 6 days...

May I ask if this journal requires publication fees?

猫小麦 2022-07-06

The journal requires that the letter should not exceed 4000 words. Is this requirement strict? All my content combined amounts to 8000 words.

Hello, friend. Why is there no option for submitting research papers in this magazine? Can I only choose to submit a letter? Looking forward to your reply.

ERL's reputation is generally good, with two articles being accepted for publication in about a month after submission. The initial review period is usually around 7 days, followed by the reviewing process. However, the selection of reviewers seems to be unfavorable, as both articles were surprisingly assigned to the same reviewer.

1. GRL: GRL stands out as the best option, although the Impact Factor may not be high, it is widely recognized in the industry. It is highly challenging but has a good reputation. If there is any slight deficiency in the research, it will be rejected.

2. ERL: ERL follows GRL, and there can be some imperfections in the research, but it must have sufficient innovation and depth and breadth.

3. STOEN: STOEN is comparable to ERL, but slightly lower in terms of emphasis. It leans more towards hot topics and system research.

Due to being a relatively niche field, but a good idea, the results were also good. So I decided to give it a try. I originally thought it would be difficult to find reviewers, but within a week after submission, reviewers were found. After one month, two experts returned with major revisions. Both provided positive feedback. One had a 2000-word question, very objective. The other provided constructive suggestions for improvement. There were 20 days for revisions, followed by minor revisions and acceptance. Altogether, it took about 3 and a half months.

I encountered good reviewers and editors. Colleagues who previously submitted manuscripts advised that the Cover letter and Justification statement are crucial and should be well-written. Also, Google Chrome has compatibility issues with the submission system. It is recommended to use Firefox for manuscript submission.

GRL>ERL>STOEN, I wonder what everyone thinks?

Recently, I also wanted to have an article on the microbial transformation of heavy metals. May I ask if your article was eventually included?

9.7投 - 9.7投 (pronounced "jiǔ diǎn qī tóu") means "submitted on September 7th."
9.10送审 - 9.10送审 (pronounced "jiǔ diǎn shí sòng shěn") means "sent for review on September 10th."
10.18拒 - 10.18拒 (pronounced "shí yāo bā jù") means "rejected on October 18th."

The text says, "It is not stated accurately... the system will display whether it has been sent for review. But through this link, you can enter the manuscript number and check the status in more detail."

heeeeee 2021-09-10

This place can be used to check the status of the manuscript. The system will not display whether it will be sent for review.

How long does it take to go from provisionally accepted to formally accepted?

Z_Chen 2021-04-26

Mine took much longer, adding up to a total of 6 months (with moderate revision). Fortunately, it was ultimately accepted.

中中中678 2021-04-14

Compared to Grl, I don't know, but compared to the total environment, it is definitely much better and the difficulty is also relatively higher.

Lily 2021-03-10

Hello, may I ask how long it took for your manuscript to go from "manuscript received" to its current status? It has been over a week for me and it is still in this state. Should I send an email to inquire about it?

wuwuwuwu 2021-03-02

I have already hired you. You are hired directly after a minor revision.

Jeremy 2021-02-23

Submitted at the end of 2020, accepted in early 2021, the whole process from submission to acceptance took a little over two months. This is considered quite fast, as other journals usually take two months to review and return the manuscript. The speed and efficiency of this journal are commendable. The journal provides a short review time for reviewers and a short time for authors to make revisions. Previously, when reviewing for this journal, they usually only gave two weeks for review and about three to four weeks for revisions. Overall, the reviewers are also good, providing diverse and constructive comments. As long as the author responds seriously to the reviewers' comments, it is sufficient. The only downside is that it is a bit expensive, so one must work hard to earn money to sustain their research work.

Z_Chen 2021-02-02

I also plan to withdraw the submission. Honestly, I can't afford to waste time like this. It's my first time submitting to this journal, and the status updates are few and far between. My recent choice of submissions hasn't been great either.

GRL>ERL>STE translates to "Girl is greater than Earl is greater than Steve."

How does this journal compare to Science of the Total Environment and Geophysical Research Letters?
