About the journal
Global Environmental Change: Human and Policy Dimensions is an international journal that addresses the human ecological and public policy dimensions of environmental processes that threaten the sustainability of life on Earth. These processes include deforestation, desertification, soil degradation, population growth, increased energy demand, increased demand for water, species extinction, sea level rise, acid precipitation, groundwater contamination, destruction of the atmospheric ozone layer, atmospheric warming/cooling, marine pollution, nuclear winter, the emergence of new technological hazards, and the worsening effects of natural disasters. The journal emphasizes human contributions to worldwide environmental changes and explores the diversity of human responses to impacts of global change.
Instructions to Authors
Submissions
Three copies (the original and two copies) should be submitted to the Editor. Articles should be 4000-6000 words long, although articles longer than 6000 words will be accepted on an occasional basis, if the topic demands this length of treatment. All articles are refereed.
Contributions are normally received with the understanding that they comprise original, unpublished material and are not being submitted for publication elsewhere. Translated material, which has not been published in English, will also be considered.
The editors reserve the right to edit or otherwise alter all contributions, but authors will receive proofs for approval before publication.
Shorter items
The Viewpoint section exists for the expression of opinion, and allows authors to submit material which may not be appropriate for full-length articles but which contains ideas worthy of publication. The Reports section consists of brief factual summaries of research and reports from institutions. Reports and Viewpoints should comprise 1500-2500 words.
Book reviews and conference reports are welcomed. Book reviews should comprise 800-1200 words and conference reports 1000-1500 words. Notices of forthcoming meetings for listing in the Calendar section are also welcomed. Entries must be received at least three months before publication.
Presentation
Manuscripts should be typed in journal style, double spaced. Footnotes, abstract and references should be double-spaced on one side only of International Standard Size A4 paper, with a left-hand margin of 40 mm, should be used.
Manuscripts should be arranged in the following order of presentation. First sheet: short title (up to 40 characters including spaces), subtitle (if desired), author's name, affiliation, full postal address and telephone and fax numbers. Respective affiliations and addresses of co-authors should be clearly indicated. Second sheet: a self-contained abstract of up to 100 words; acknowledgements (if any); article title abbreviated appropriately for use as a running headline. Subsequent sheets: main body of text; list of references; appendixes; tables (on separate sheets); footnotes (numbered consecutively); captions to illustrations (on a separate sheet); illustrations. Each sheet must carry the abbreviated title of the article and the journal name. The text should be organized under appropriate section headings which, ideally, should not be more than 600 words apart. All headings should be placed on the left-hand side of the text, with a double line space above and below.
All measurements should be given in metric units.
Authors are urged to write as concisely as possible, but not at the expense of clarity. Descriptive or explanatory passages, necessary as information but which tend to break up the flow of text, should be put into footnotes or appendixes. Where possible, however, footnotes should be avoided.
References and footnotes
For Global Environment Change the Harvard system is to be used: authors' names (no initials) and dates (and specific pages, only in the case of quotations) are given in the main body of the text, e.g. (Parry, 1990, p. 110). References are listed alphabetically at the end of the paper, double spaced and conform to current journal style:
For journals: Parry, M. (1990) The potential impact on agriculture of the greenhouse effect. Land Use Policy 7, 109-123.
For books: El-Hinnawi, E. and Hashmi, M. H. (1987) The State of the Environment. Butterworths, Kent.
Other publications: Where there is doubt include all bibliographical details. Footnotes should be indicated in the text by superior Arabic numerals which run consecutively through the paper. They should be grouped together in a section at the end of the text in numerical order and double spaced.
Tables
Tables should be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals and given a suitable caption. Notes and references within tables should be included with the tables, separately from the main text. Notes should be referred to by superscript letters. All table columns should have an explanatory heading. Tables should not repeat data available elsewhere in the article, e.g. in an illustration.
Illustrations
All graphs, diagrams and other drawings should be referred to as Figures, which should be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals and placed on separate sheets at the end of the manuscript. Their position should be indicated in the text. All illustrations must have captions, which should be typed on a separate sheet.
Illustrations should be provided in a form suitable for reproduction without retouching: that is, they should be camera-ready. Three copies of the illustration should be provided: the original, + two photocopies. Illustrations should permit reduction, with lines drawn proportionally thicker and symbols larger than required in the printed version.
Glossy black-and-white photos are encouraged, where they add materially to the text. These are to be numbered consecutively as figures. Only the original need be submitted: it should be identified on a label (by number, article, title and journal) on the back. Captions should be provided on a separate sheet.
Authors should minimize the amount of descriptive matter on graphs or drawings, and refer to curves, points, etc by their symbols. Descriptive matter should be placed in the caption. Scale grids should not be used in the graphs, unless required for actual measurements.
Proofs
Authors are responsible for ensuring that all manuscripts (whether original or revised) are accurately typed before final submission. Manuscripts will be returned to the author with a set of instructions if they are not submitted according to style. One set of proofs will be sent to authors before publication, which should be returned promptly (by Express Air Mail if outside the UK). The publisher reserves the right to charge for any changes made at the proof stage (other than printer's errors) since the insertion or deletion of a single word may necessitate the resetting of whole paragraphs.
Offprints
Twenty five offprints of each paper will be provided free of charge to the first-named author of main articles. Further offprints, minimum quantity 50, may be purchased from the publisher.
Submission of manuscript on disk
Authors are encouraged to submit a computer disk (3.5" or 5.25" HD/DD disk) containing the final version of the paper along with the final manuscript to the Editorial Office. Please observe the following criteria:
(a) Send only hard copy when first submitting your paper.
(b) When your paper has been refereed, revised if necessary and accepted, send a disk containing the final version with the final hard copy. Make sure that the disk and the hard copy match exactly.
(c) Specify what software was used, including which release (e.g. WordPerfect 5.1).
(d) Specify what computer was used (either IBM compatible PC or Apple Macintosh).
(e) Text, tables, and illustrations (if available on disk) should be supplied as separate files.
(f) The file should follow the general instructions on style/arrangement and, in particular, the reference style.
(g) The file should use the wrap-around end-of-line feature (i.e. no returns at the end of each line). All textual elements should begin flush left, no paragraph indents. Place two returns after every element such as title, headings, paragraphs, figure and table call-outs.
(h) Keep a back-up disk for reference and safety.
