Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution publishes rigorously peer-reviewed research across fundamental and applied sciences, to provide ecological and evolutionary insights into our natural and anthropogenic world, and how it should best be managed. Field Chief Editor Mark A. Elgar at the University of Melbourne is supported by an outstanding Editorial Board of international researchers. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics and the public worldwide.

Eminent biologist and theist Theodosius Dobzhansky’s astute observation that “Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution” has arguably even broader relevance now than when it was first penned in The American Biology Teacher in 1973. One could similarly argue that not much in evolution makes sense without recourse to ecological concepts: understanding diversity — from microbial adaptations to species assemblages — requires insights from both ecological and evolutionary disciplines. Nowadays, technological developments from other fields allow us to address unprecedented ecological and evolutionary questions of astonishing detail, impressive breadth and compelling inference.

The specialty sections of Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution will publish, under a single platform, contemporary, rigorous research, reviews, opinions, and commentaries that cover the spectrum of ecological and evolutionary inquiry, both fundamental and applied. Articles are peer-reviewed according to the Frontiers review guidelines, which evaluate manuscripts on objective editorial criteria. Through this unique, Frontiers platform for open-access publishing and research networking, Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution aims to provide colleagues and the broader community with ecological and evolutionary insights into our natural and anthropogenic world, and how it might best be managed.

This journal will email you in real-time whenever the reviewers provide feedback, instead of waiting until all the reviews are completed. Therefore, the time given for revisions is relatively short (this article was given 7 days for major revisions, and an extension can be requested). It is important to note that if you receive feedback and feel hopeful, you can start working on revisions early. The journal has a complex process, including independent and interactive reviews, similar to a forum where you communicate back and forth with the reviewers and make revisions repeatedly until it satisfies all the reviewers' preferences. The publication fee under Frontiers is quite expensive, so it is advisable to budget accordingly. In summary, the process is more cumbersome than regular journals, with two reviewers who are highly professional. The review speed is decent, but the impact factor of the new journal is unstable, currently at 4.1, an upgrade to Tier 2, and it is uncertain if it will decrease by the end of the year.
