Obviously, it is there. The few brothers in front didn't pay attention. The guidebook states that a small picture and a table count as 200 words, while a big picture with small pictures included counts as 600 words.

Thank you for your sharing, may I ask what is the title of the article you later received from JHM? I would like to read it, thank you.

Submitted at the end of January, accepted in April. Submitting a paper is not easy, hoping to be able to get another one accepted.

It doesn't count. I didn't count when I voted.

左耳钉 2023-04-04

Excuse me, does the word count include references? It's urgent.

左耳钉 2023-04-04

I would like to ask, does this word count of 7000 include references? It seems that the word count for references in the published articles has already exceeded 7000. Most people have around 4-5 figures in their papers, which also adds up to around 2000 words.

By the way, has anyone reached this associate editor? Did you all have a smooth experience? Thank you for the information you provided.

ZJU-Resdog 2023-03-17

I have submitted this magazine twice, and in my mind, EST is the top magazine. The first and second times were both in the hands of the same associate editor. Next, I will list the submission process to provide some information for future contributors.

First submission: After submitting, it took one day to reach the editor-in-chief and three more days to reach the associate editor, Jordi Dachs. Then, it went for review (approximately 40 days). There were three reviewers, one of whom was more aggressive in their comments. Two major revisions and one minor revision were suggested. However, the associate editor rejected the submission, indicating that it would no longer be considered. Overall, the feedback was very helpful and contributed significantly to the article. Later, I resubmitted it to JHM, and it was accepted in one month.

Second submission: I submitted it on the 3rd of this month, and it took two days to reach the editor-in-chief and another two days to reach the associate editor, Jordi Dachs. It is currently uncertain, but if there is any news, I will update it later. Overall, the handling speed of the manuscript is relatively reasonable and can be described as steady.

The first submission of the research beginner was made with courage to choose EST. After two and a half months, the editorial department replied with a rejection. The journal has high requirements for novelty and impact. The next submission will still choose EST in order to strive for future opportunities. Now, I will share the experience of failure as follows:

2022.7.20: Submitted
2022.7.22: Associate editor assigned (Prof. Pedro J.J. Alvarez.)
2022.8.10: In peer review
2022.10.7: Rejected

There were a total of two reviewers. The first one provided a rejection reason and raised several questions that were difficult to answer. The second reviewer provided many detailed questions, which helped improve the quality of the paper to some extent.

Wishing everyone smooth progress in their research!

Excuse me, have you ever experienced being under review directly after submitting a manuscript, and then receiving an email from Editor XXX? Do I need to send an email to this Editor? It seems that other submissions directly show Editor XXX, and they are in a grayed-out state, unable to send emails by clicking on it. However, for Email Editor XXX, clicking on it allows me to send an email. Do I need to include any specific content? For example, should I send a cover letter? The status of the manuscript does not display a communication email.

Albert2020 2023-03-10

How long after you receive the proof email? It has been a week for me and I still haven't received it.

I submitted two articles from last year to this year and encountered two different editors. The submission periods were very different. The first article took eight months in the review process, with five reminders sent throughout the process, but they were mostly ineffective. The editor had their own judgment and work rhythm.

First article:
Submitted on July 2, 2022.
Sent for review on August 21.
Major revision requested on October 21, with agreement from all four reviewers.
Revision returned on November 30.
Minor revision requested on February 12, 2023.
Revision returned on February 17.
Accepted on March 2.

Second article:
Submitted on January 4, 2023.
Sent for review on January 6.
Major revision requested on February 12, with agreement from all four reviewers.
Revision returned on February 27.
Accepted on March 1.

2022.11.21 submitted (Julie B. Zimmerman)
2022.11.23 associate editor assigned (Alexandria Boehm)
2022.11.25 Requested word count <7000, returned
2022.11.27 Requested to indicate corresponding author in cover letter, returned
2022.11.29 In peer review
2023.01.04 Major revision given with 1 month deadline, 4 reviewers. First two reviewers provided minimal comments and praised the paper. The third reviewer was extremely knowledgeable and despite giving the paper a very high evaluation, raised numerous technical questions, increasing the workload by four times compared to the initial draft. However, we rejected modification for two of the issues raised. The fourth reviewer did not understand and requested a flowchart explaining the content and purpose of the paper.
2023.02.01 Revised manuscript returned, in peer review
2023.02.28 Reviewer3 of the major revision demanded modification for one of the issues we rejected.
2023.03.01 Returned, accepted the same evening but requested a few formatting changes.
2023.03.02 Accepted.

Do you still remember the submission details after the EST abbreviation? Is the selection still "No" for the previous submission section, just like the initial submission?

fanduoheaven 2023-03-04

After shortening the text, the question remains the same: Should I still select "No" for this?

fanduoheaven 2023-03-04

I would like to ask the original poster, when re-submitting, do we need to select "Previous Submission"? Should we select "no" for this question? Because it is also an unsubmitted manuscript.

The second review is even slower than the first review.

LY1223 2023-02-19

The whole process took 6 months, and it took two months from the second submission to acceptance.

The current status is "Under Review", is it already submitted for review or is it still in the editing department?

dantongxue 2023-02-13

This editor is quite slow, but has a pretty good attitude. I just submitted a piece to her. Best wishes~

THEMONSTER 2023-02-10

"Ready to receive and format modifications, but why has it been over a week and still no reception? Is the editing work slow? Could it have been sent for review again?"
