Journals and magazines are not the same. Many journals do not publish this track.

There were quite a few comments from the reviewers, and the editor also provided a few suggestions. However, it is not clear who made the decision to reject the submission and request a resubmission. I feel that the editor thought there was not enough time for major revisions to be completed, so they opted for rejection and resubmission. I have had similar experiences with submitting to SBB before, and as long as you make thorough revisions, there is still a good chance.

May I ask if there will be a link for tracking the status after the original poster submits for review?

I would like to ask if the author's rejection and resubmission are rejected by the editor or the reviewer?

The submission went through rejection and resubmission, followed by modification and resubmission, and finally acceptance for publication. Throughout the process, there were two reviewers who seemed to have remained the same, and each review took about a month. The reviewers were very diligent and responsible, providing many suggestions for revisions, and the editor also offered their own suggestions each time. Overall, with the help of the editor and reviewers, the quality of the article was greatly improved. The most important experience in submitting is to take every suggestion from the editor and reviewers seriously. In addition, SBB has high language requirements and often requests language polishing before submission, although polishing does not guarantee acceptance for review.

Hello, may I ask if you have the results for your paper?

I have a question for everyone. I recently submitted two articles. I quickly received the tracking status link for the first article, but I haven't received anything for the second one. However, the submission website shows that the second article is "under review." Does this mean the second article has been rejected?

Brothers, how much is the SBB layout fee now?

The reviewers provided a lot of constructive feedback (clearly pointing out that the soil chemistry was outdated and lacked innovation or a clear explanation of the unique innovation). They also requested additional data, citation of articles, reorganization of language, and identification of the logical rules of writing. Reviewer 2 requested a re-write of the paper but also gave positive feedback (kudos!) and requested resubmission within two months. Reviewer 1 accepted the revisions after the revisions were made, while Reviewer 2 requested a revision of the figures. Reviewer 3, who was invited, agreed to review the paper. The editor personally rewrote the abstract and provided general rules of scientific writing for each section, including references and website links (grateful). After carefully studying, the paper was reduced from 13,000 words to 9,600 words, and each revised draft was submitted at the last deadline. The final version of the article was accepted, although the editor made a few changes that were not quite suitable. I feel that the reviewers and editor have been continuously encouraging me as a young researcher (possibly because they were impressed by my 30,000-word responses). I have gained a lot and will continue to study hard. I also wish everyone can learn new knowledge from each submission in the future.

Very good journal, the reviewers and editors have all provided revision suggestions. The entire article has color illustrations. It feels that as long as the charts are clear and concise, whether they are in color or black and white doesn't matter. However, the article requires extremely high language and logical requirements. The article is finally accepted!!!!!!

Your experience is very helpful!

SBB is quite good.
However, in 2021, when I submitted an article, new reviewers were added in the second round. After revisions, it was rejected again upon re-evaluation. But when I asked others, it seems that no new reviewers were added in the second round of review. It's quite unfortunate.

I have been in this state for 1 month and 4 days already, writing a letter to the magazine to inquire about the format or other reasons, but it's like throwing a stone into the sea.

LeeNC 2021-09-14

The first submission was quickly sent for review, and I recently submitted another one. It has been almost 20 days since it's "with editor," but I don't know what the issue is, so I haven't dared to follow up.

Recognized as a well-established journal in the field of soil science, this journal has high language requirements, emphasizing conciseness. It is recommended to have someone proofread the language before submission. Overall, the peer review process is fast, and the editors are responsible. In addition to the reviewers' comments, the editors also provide specific suggestions for the articles. Looking forward to the continuous improvement of the journal.
