Submission Categories

The journal provides several submission categories, described below. Word count specifications are not inclusive of references, tables, figures, or abstract text.

Research and Theory (5000-8000 words): research or work that contributes to new knowledge to our collective understanding of environmental issues. Articles should connect directly to the journal’s aims and scope.

Review Articles (<6000 words): methodologically rigorous reviews of extant literature addressing topics germane to the interdisciplinary environmental studies and sciences, such as meta-analyses or systematic analyses. We do not accept Review Articles that lack a specific method or systematic approach and we do not publish literature reviews.

Research Brief (< 5000 words): a concise description of current or in-process interdisciplinary environmental research or related activities. For example, Research Briefs could include a policy analysis, methodological innovation, or mid-course reflection on a research project.

Practitioner Voices (3000-5000 words): a contribution focused on any aspect of practice, including but not limited to reports on interdisciplinary courses or programs in higher education and advocacy or policy work. Rigorously conceptualized educational research projects should be submitted to the Research and Theory category.

Opinion/ Editorial Articles (<3000 words): essays addressing issues and events related to environmental studies and sciences. Essays should present a carefully reasoned and informed discussion with a point of view interesting and accessible to readers. Topics may involve any academic disciplines or discipline combinations, relate to contemporary or past environmental issues and events, and encourage discussion.

Book Reviews (<3000 words): concise reviews of newly published books or extended essays combining a review of several books with a discussion of issues raised by the collective publications.

Letters (<1000 words): communications relating to significant issues for readers, which can concern previously published journal material.

Special Issues and Symposia: a collection of related articles, or other materials relevant to environmental issues, edited by one or more authors who provide coherence by clarifying the importance and relationship among the materials. Proposals may involve whole journal issues of portions of an issue.
