Instructions to Authors
GENERAL
Water and Environment Journal is the leading publication in its field, dealing with worldwide aspects of the water cycle and a broad range of environmental matters, including the management of solid and hazardous wastes, control of air pollution and environmental conservation.
The Institution publishes papers presented by members and non-members at meetings of its local branches, papers from national and international conferences and symposia and papers which are submitted for Journal publication alone.
CIWEM members and other Journal subscribers will be interested to hear about the work you are doing. Operational, Scientific, Technical and Research papers are welcomed, and both short and full-length papers are encouraged.
Papers to be published in the Journal must be original, and are expected to be of a high standard - not only in respect of their subject matter and its treatment, but also in the quality of the writing. Particular attention should be paid to clarity and conciseness of expression. Authors are encouraged to draw out generic messages from their work in relation to water and environmental management. This is particularly important for case study papers.
SUSTAINABILITY
Papers submitted to Water and Environment Journal should encompass the principles of sustainable development as defined in the Bruntland Report (World Commission on Environment and Development. Our Common Future, 1987).
Papers which promote clearly unsustainable practices will not be accepted for publication. Authors should conduct and report research in an ethical manner and are required to sign a declaration that their work conforms to the legal requirements of the country in which it was carried out including those relating to the environment.
REFEREEING
Three expert referees assess each paper and a decision as to publication is made by the Editor-in-Chief on the basis of the referees' reports. The editor's decision is final. Where authors are invited to resubmit their paper for consideration in the journal, feedback is given to authors to help them with the revising of their papers. Where papers are not accepted for publication, it is not CIWEM's policy to enter into correspondence regarding the reasons for rejection, with authors whose papers have not been accepted.
EDITING
The Editor-in-Chief reserves the right to amend a manuscript if it does not comply with the Institution's requirements and not to publish any parts which he considers to be superfluous or to which he takes exception. Authors are sent a final proof of their paper for checking prior to printing.
PUBLICATION
The journal is part of Wiley-Blackwell's Early View service. This allows papers that are in their final form to be published online on the Wiley InterScience website ahead of their appearance in a print issue. These papers have been fully peer reviewed and proofs have been corrected by the author. Accepted papers are typically published in the printed Journal within 12 months of submission.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
An example Journal paper can be viewed on the CIWEM website at: www.ciwem.org.uk/publications/journal/
Papers should be submitted using Water and Environment Journal's manuscript submission website http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/wej. There is a help function on the website to guide you through the process. Files can be uploaded in Word (.doc), RTF (.rtf) or PDF (.pdf) format.
Please note that if your submission exceeds 5MB it may slow down the review process. If this is the case please consider using lower resolution images and/or black and white charts and graphs. If the paper is accepted higher quality images will be needed by the publishers. For further information please contact jcooper@ciwem.org.
Language
Authors whose first language is not English should ensure that their paper is carefully checked by a fluent English speaker for language accuracy and appropriateness.
Authors may choose to have their manuscript professionally edited before submission to improve the English. A list of independent suppliers of editing services can be found at http://authorservices.wiley.com/bauthor/english_language.asp. All services are paid for and arranged by the author, and use of one of these services does not guarantee acceptance or preference for publication.
Length
Papers, including illustrations and tables, must not exceed (the equivalent of) approximately 5000 words in length. Short papers (between 1500 and 2500 words) are also encouraged. Authors are asked to perform a word count and state the number of words at the end of the paper.
Layout
The layout of the main body of the paper will depend upon the subject but, in general, a paper should follow the following format:
Title page; Abstract; Key words; Introduction (this should not repeat what has been said in the abstract); Main exposition, subdivided as appropriate for the subject; Discussion, if required, e.g. of experimental results; Conclusions, which should be numbered (they should not include tables, figures, or references); Acknowledgements; References; Word count; Appendices, if necessary; figure legends; tables.
Title page
The title of the paper should be as short as possible and consistent with a clear indication of the subject matter. The name(s) and appointment(s) of the author(s) should be given, and where applicable, the grade of CIWEM membership (e.g. MCIWEM; FCIWEM). If the paper has been presented, the date and venue of the presentation should be given. In the case of multi-author papers one author should agree to act as the corresponding author to whom queries and proofs will be sent. An e-mail address and other contact details for the corresponding author should be provided.
Abstract
An abstract of not more than 150 words and not less than 100 words should be included at the beginning of the paper. It should briefly indicate the subject and scope of the paper, calling attention to points of special interest, e.g. method of investigation and important results.
Key words
Up to 8 key words should be listed in alphabetical order for use in retrieval systems.
Headings
Not more than three levels of headings should be used. Main headings should be typed (in bold letters) centrally on the page, and secondary headings (in bold letters) at the left of the page. Third level headings should be typed in italics at the left of the page. Numbering of paragraphs and sections of a paper should be avoided.
Units
The Syst猫me International (SI) should be used for all units of measurement as far as possible. The oblique stroke (e.g. m3/d) should be used instead of the negative index (m3d-1). Temperature should be expressed in 掳C.
Illustrations
Diagrams should be drawn without boundary boxes and should be as simple as possible, but should contain enough information to be understood without reference to the text. Any map should include a compass point. Photographs can help to enhance the overall appearance of a paper. Captions should be concise and be listed on a separate page at the end of the paper.
When a paper is initially submitted all figures should be embedded into the main text file for review purposes. Please note that after acceptance separate high resolution print quality figures will be needed as described below.
Artwork requirements for accepted papers
Our preferred electronic file type is vector-format encapsulated post script (EPS) because these images are scaleable and therefore do not lose quality in the online PDF. All line drawings or photographs with added labelling should be supplied in EPS format.
The best results are obtained with software applications that can output EPS format (Systat SigmaPlot; Adobe Illustrator; CorelDraw; Deneba Canvas; Macromedia Freehand) rather than 'save as' EPS format.
Half tones without any labelling can be supplied in TIFF format at 300 dots per inch minimum. If line drawings cannot be supplied as EPS files then they must be in TIFF format with a minimum resolution of 800 dpi. These resolutions also apply to any images embedded into an EPS file.
Please click here for our artwork guidelines which provide further information on these formats. Please also see the illustration submission section in the 'author resources' section of the author services site. This page has some useful documents that explain why we use EPS and TIFF formats rather than JPEG or other formats.
Please carefully consider the choice of tones in black and white figures and ensure the grey scale is used effectively for better definition.
Colour figures
The charges for inclusion of these in any one article are shown on the Colour Work Agreement form, which should be completed and returned with your accepted paper to the Editor for any papers containing colour images.
Tables
Tables should be as few and as simple as possible. Graphs are often preferable to tables, and the same data should not be presented in both forms. Please place tables on separate pages at the end of the file after the figure legends. Captions should appear above tables.
Data that is integral to the paper must be made available in such a way as to enable readers to replicate, verify and build upon the conclusions published in the paper. Any restriction on the availability of this data must be disclosed at the time of submission. Data may be included as part of the main article where practical. We recommend that data for which public repositories are widely used, and are accessible to all, should be deposited in such a repository prior to publication. The appropriate linking details and identifier(s) should then be included in the publication and where possible the repository, to facilitate linking between the journal article and the data. If such a repository does not exist, data should be included as supporting information to the published paper or authors should agree to make their data available upon reasonable request.
Acknowledgements
These should be to the authority by whose permission the paper is published, any sources of grants or funds to support the work, colleagues or others who have made significant contributions to the work, and any copyright holders who have given permission for their work to be quoted.
Recurrent references to proprietary names should not be given in the main body of the text; recognition should instead be made in the Acknowledgements section.
References
References should be cited using the Harvard Referencing System.
Citations in the text take the form of author names and dates (e.g. Smith 1990). Sort references chronologically and then alphabetically within dates (e.g. Smith 1990; Brown 2001; Walton 2001). For references with three or more authors, use the first author's name and 'et al' in the text.
References in the list are sorted alphabetically by author name. If two or more references have the same first author and date, use 'a', 'b' etc. after the date to distinguish them (e.g. Smith et al. 1990a,b). References for website addresses should only be used where the hardcopy reference is unavailable. Authors should ensure that website references are in full, sustainable, refer directly to the reference and are live.
Manuscripts that have not been formally accepted for publication (e.g. 'in preparation') should not be included in the reference list but should be cited in the text as unpublished data. Please give the names and initials of all collaborators in such cases. Personal communications/observations may also be cited in the text.
