About the journal
|
Boundary-Layer Meteorology publishes papers on the physical, chemical and biological processes occurring in the lowest few kilometres of the Earth's atmosphere. During its existence, Boundary-Layer Meteorology has become the primary medium for the publication of theoretical, numerical and experimental studies of the atmospheric boundary layer over both land and sea surfaces. Subject areas covered in the journal include agriculture and forestry, air pollution, air¨Csea interaction, hydrology, micrometeorology, the planetary boundary layer, surface processes, mesoscale meteorology, numerical modelling of the lower atmosphere, remote sensing, and urban meteorology. Occasional special issues are published that cover a particular topic in great depth. |

Instructions to Authors
Manuscript Submission
Kluwer Academic Publishers request the submission of manuscripts in paper and electronic format (compulsory). The preferred storage medium for your files is a 3.5 inch diskette, zip?/SUP> disk or CD-ROM. Please label disks with your name, journal name, short manuscript title, file name(s), the software format, and the operating system used. Please always retain a backup copy of your files. After revision, make absolutely sure that you send the latest version of your manuscript (including tables and figures) in paper and electronic format.
We prefer manuscripts submitted in word processing packages such as MS Word, Rich Text Format, WordPerfect, plain Text or LaTeX. The Kluwer LaTeX class file can be downloaded from: http://www.wkap.nl/authors/jrnlstylefiles/. If you are not familiar with TeX/LaTeX we ask that you submit your article in a common word processor format. PDF is not a recommended format.
For the purpose of reviewing, articles for publication should be submitted as hard-copy printout (four copies) and on diskette to: Kluwer Academic Publishers Journals Editorial Office Boundary-Layer Meteorology P.O. Box 990 3300 AZ Dordrecht The Netherlands Fax: +31 78 6576254
Hard-copy figures
Original or good quality printouts of all figures should be submitted with the manuscript. Computer generated printouts should be flawless and on good quality paper. Non-computer generated line figures should be drawn with Indian ink on white matt paper or tracing paper. Photographs should be in black-and-white on glossy paper. If a figure is to be in colour (author's expense), please supply the highest quality possible so that the figure can be scanned. Slides, glossy photos and computer generated printouts on glossy photo quality paper are acceptable. On the reverse side of each figure, the name of the (first) author and the figure number should be written in pencil; the top of the figure should be clearly indicated.
Electronic figures
You should supply the electronic versions of your figures. We prefer figures in TIFF, EPS, PS, PDF and Microsoft?/SUP> Office format. Be aware that we may not be able to use other file formats and that the hard copy may be scanned instead. For vector graphics, EPS is the preferred format. For bitmapped graphics, TIFF is the preferred format. The following resolutions are optimal: line figures - 600 - 1200 dpi; photographs - 300 dpi; screen dumps - leave as is. Colour figures can be submitted in the RGB colour system. Font-related problems can be avoided by using standard fonts such as Times Roman, Courier and Helvetica. Figures should be saved in separate files. The figure legends should be included in the text file.
Language
We appreciate any efforts that you make to ensure that the language is corrected before submission. This will greatly improve the legibility of your paper if English is not your first language.
Manuscript Presentation
The journal¡®s language is English. British English spelling and terminology should be used consistently throughout the article. Manuscripts should be printed or typewritten on A4 or US Letter bond paper, one side only, leaving adequate margins on all sides to allow reviewers¡® remarks. Please double-space all material, including notes and references. Quotations of more than 40 words should be set off clearly, either by indenting the left-hand margin or by using a smaller typeface. Use double quotation marks for direct quotations and single quotation marks for quotations within quotations and for words or phrases used in a special sense.
Number the pages consecutively with the first page containing:
- running head (shortened title)
- article type
- title
- author(s)
- affiliation(s)
- full address for correspondence, including telephone and fax number and e-mail address
Abstract
Please provide a short abstract of 100 to 250 words. The abstract should not contain any undefined abbreviations or references since they are intended to serve as a ¡¯stand-alone¡® summary of the paper.
Key Words
Please provide up to six key words or short phrases in alphabetical order.
Abbreviations and Acronyms
Abbreviations and Acronyms should be explained at first occurrence.
Formulae
Formulae should be typewritten if possible. Subscripts and superscripts should be set off clearly. As a decimal sign we prefer the full stop; crosses should be reserved for multiplication. In the manuscript vectors are to be indicated by wavy underlining. Unusual signs should be identified in the margin.
Units
We use the International System of Units (Systeme International - SI). Inverse units should use the exponent form: e.g., m s-1, not m/s. Abbreviations of units are used only when preceded by a numeral; they are written in the same way for the singular and the plural and are never followed by a period.
Figures
All photographs, graphs and diagrams should be referred to as a 'Figure' and they should be numbered consecutively (1, 2, etc.). Multi-part figures ought to be labeled with lower case letters (a, b, etc.). Please insert keys and scale bars directly in the figures. Relatively small text and great variation in text sizes within figures should be avoided as figures are often reduced in size. Figures may be sized to fit approximately within the column(s) of the journal. Provide a detailed legend (without abbreviations) to each figure, refer to the figure in the text and note its approximate location in the margin. Please place the legends in the manuscript after the references.
Tables
Each table should be numbered consecutively (1, 2, etc.). In tables, footnotes are preferable to long explanatory material in either the heading or body of the table. Such explanatory footnotes, identified by superscript letters, should be placed immediately below the table. Please provide a caption (without abbreviations) to each table, refer to the table in the text and note its approximate location in the margin. Finally, please place the tables after the figures legends in the manuscript.
Section Headings
Section headings should be numbered (e.g., 1., 1.1, 1.1.1, 2., 2.1, etc.).
Appendices
Supplementary material should be collected in an Appendix and placed before the Notes and Reference sections.
Notes
Please reduce the use of notes to a minimum and use footnotes rather than endnotes. Notes should be indicated by consecutive superscript numbers in the text and listed at the end of the article before the References. A source reference note should be indicated by means of an asterisk after the title. This note should be placed at the bottom of the first page.
Cross-Referencing
In the text, a reference identified by means of an author¡®s name should be followed by the date of the reference in parentheses and page number(s) where appropriate. When there are more than two authors, only the first author¡®s name should be mentioned, followed by ¡¯et al.¡®. In the event that an author cited has had two or more works published during the same year, the reference, both in the text and in the reference list, should be identified by a lower case letter like ¡¯a¡® and ¡¯b¡® after the date to distinguish the works. Examples: Winograd (1986, p. 204) (Winograd, 1986a, b) (Winograd, 1986; Flores et al., 1988) (Bullen and Bennett, 1990)
Acknowledgements
Acknowledgements of people, grants, funds, etc. should be placed in a separate section before the References.

Moore, personal communication).
