FE is a highly recognized journal in the field of ecology. Recently, a study on the spatial structure of plant communities and their relationship with productivity was published in FE. The review process takes about two months.

May I ask what is going on with the switch between "editorial assessment" and "with one or more reviewers"?

My manuscript is also in this state, may I ask what the reason is?

May I ask how your manuscript is doing? What is the current status of the review process?

Hello, may I ask what "送审了" means?

garyhzy0418 2022-08-26

For one month, it has been "with editor for recommendation". I sent an email to inquire, and the next day it changed to "with one or more reviewers". After half a day, it changed to "editorial assessment". I don't know if it has been sent for review. Could you please tell me what the status of "送审了" means?

Encountered the same problem as well.

Does it mean making a decision from "with one or more reviewers" to "Editorial assessment" as mentioned above?

What's the reason? The same.

After publishing one article in the middle of 2020, another one was published at the end of 2021, both with me as the corresponding author. It seems that the editors have become familiar with my work through these two submissions, and they have even invited me to write a popular science article for the magazine's blog. The review process was very efficient, with only minor revisions required for both submissions, and they were accepted within a week after making the revisions. I hope this magazine continues to thrive.

Hello, I have one more question: Do I need to submit the raw data to the Dryad Digital Repository database before submitting the manuscript and obtain a DOI number for the data?

You are referring to a cover letter, right? Yes, you need to explain the highlights of your article.

May I ask, is a lay summary required for the initial submission of a manuscript to FE?

hahaya 2021-07-03

It took us 10 days to submit our manuscript for review, and it has been a month without any news. After reading everyone's comments, I feel that this magazine is quite slow, and it is estimated that it will take more than a month and a half to possibly receive the reviewer's comments.

Still submitting to PNAS, I laughed.
