期刊名称：CARIBBEAN JOURNAL OF SCIENCE ISSN： 0008-6452 出版频率： Quarterly 出版社： UNIV PUERTO RICO,, COLLEGE ARTS SCIENCES, MAYAGUEZ, PUERTO RICO, 00680 期刊网址： http://caribjsci.org/ 影响因子： 0.373(2008) 主题范畴： BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION 期刊简介(About the journal)    投稿须知(Instructions to Authors)    编辑部信息(Editorial Board)    About the journal   The CJS began publication in 1961 with the sponsorship of the College of Arts and Sciences of the University of Puerto Rico at Mayag黣z. Our mission as a non-profit scholarly journal is to publish quality papers about Caribbean natural science and to make them widely available--free of cost over the Internet and at a low price in the traditional printed medium. Our website has been online since 1995, and in 1997 we began supplementing the printed journal with a digital version. The CJS was the first scientific journal to digitalize its complete collection and offer it in a CD/ROM, and is one of the few journals that offers free and unrestricted access to all its articles. Consider our periodical for the publication of formal articles, research notes, and book reviews, relevant to Caribbean natural science. We offer authors: International peer review Careful editorial review Coverage by leading bibliographic services Efficient processing of manuscripts Papers in press listed online Simultaneous print and electronic publication International distribution and free availability on the web Low subscription prices for the printed version High quality printing Timely publication Reasonable page charges that can be waived Instructions to Authors   The CJS publishes original research and book reviews relevant to Caribbean natural science. Traditional emphasis is on botany, zoology, ecology, archaeology, geology, and paleontology. Papers are submitted as formal articles or research notes; both are similarly constructed but notes are shorter, do not have an abstract, and their text is not divided by subheadings. Consult this Article or Research Note for other details about format and style. All manuscripts are written in English. Submission by regular mail: Send one copy of the paper to: In閟 Sastre-De Jes鷖, Editor, Caribbean Journal of Science, PO Box 9280, Mayag黣z, Puerto Rico 00681-9280. Include in the cover letter the names and addresses (postal and e-mail) of three specialists qualified to review the manuscript. Submission by e-mail (fastest alternative): Submit preferably a single Word-compatible file containing text, tables, and figures. You may also submit separate attachments, a zip file, or a PDF file prepared directly from your word-processor or by scanning a printed copy at 200 dpi (use line art setting). Send the paper to editor@caribjsci.org. Include in the email message the names and addresses (postal and e-mail) of three specialists qualified to review the manuscript. General - Manuscripts should be double-spaced, with a minimum of 2.5 cm margins on all sides, and arranged as follows: cover, abstract, text, acknowledgments, literature cited, appendix, tables, figure legends, and figures. Do not include a Spanish version of the abstract. Please number all the pages. Cover - The cover has the title, authors' names, postal addresses, and email address of the corresponding author only. Abstract - An informative abstract shorter than 250 words is included with articles but not with research notes. Informative abstracts include the purpose of the research, the main methods used, the most important results, and the most significant conclusions. Text - Main headings (Introduction, Materials and Methods, etc.) should be centered and capitalized; research notes lack headings. Use italics instead of underlining for scientific names. The International System (SI) is used for all units and measurements. Cite references by author and year. In the literature cited section, list all authors for papers with up to five authors, and list the first author followed by et al. for articles with six or more authors. All references included in the literature cited section must be cited in the text and vice versa. Use this style: For an article: Jackson, G. C. 1997. Frances W. Horne- Illustrator of Puerto Rico's Plants and Birds. Carib. J. Sci. 33(3-4): 125-141. For an article in a book: Brown, G. W. 1964. The Metabolism of Amphibia. In Physiology of the Amphibia, ed. J. A. Moore, 54-98. New York: Academic Press. For a book: Aguayo, C. G. and V. Biaggi. 1982. Diccionario de Biolog韆 Animal. San Juan, Puerto Rico: University of Puerto Rico Press. For a Web document: Mari Mutt, J. A. 1998. Print vs. the Internet: On the Future of the Scientific Journal. http://caribjsci.org/june99-p.160-164.pdf The text should be precise, clear, and concise. Avoid verbiage, excessive citations of the literature (especially to support well known statements), discussions marginally relevant to the paper, and other information that adds length but little substance to the paper. All tables and figures should be relevant and necessary; do not present the same data in tables and figures, and do not use short tables for information that can be easily presented using text. Tables - Tables should have no vertical lines and only three horizontal lines (under the title, under the headings of the columns, and at the end of the table). Fill blank spaces with a dash and explain its meaning at the end of the title or in a footnote. Illustrations - High quality digital figures and/or hardcopies are needed before the manuscript is accepted for publication. The figures will be evaluated during the editorial reading of the article and if necessary instructions will be provided for the submission of adequate illustrations. Similar figures should be arranged into plates whenever possible; leave very little space between adjoining illustrations or separate them with a thin white line. Authors must pay the additional cost of printing color illustrations (approximately US $600 per page). Reprints and Page Charges - The CJS does not provide free copies of the journal, but reprints can be purchased using a form received with the proofs. Authors will be billed US $45 per printed page after the paper is published. Authors with funds are expected to pay in full. Authors with limited funds should make a partial payment. Authors without funds must request a waiver by writing to the Editor.   Editorial Board   In閟 Sastre-de Jes鷖- Editor.
