Journal Title：Aquatic Ecology

Aquatic Ecology publishes timely, peer-reviewed original papers relating to the ecology of fresh, brackish, estuarine and marine environments. Papers on fundamental and applied novel research in both the field and the laboratory, including descriptive or experimental studies, will be included in the journal. Preference will be given to studies that address timely and current topics and are integrative and critical in approach. We discourage papers that describe presence and abundance of aquatic biota in local habitats as well as papers that are pure systematic.

The journal provides a forum for the aquatic ecologist - limnologist and oceanologist alike- to discuss ecological issues related to processes and structures at different integration levels from individuals to populations, to communities and entire ecosystems.

《水生生態學》及時發表同行評審的原創論文，這些論文涉及淡水、咸水、河口和海洋環境的生態學。該期刊將收錄有關實地和實驗室基礎和應用新研究的論文，包括描述性或實驗性研究。我們將優先考慮那些涉及及時和當前主題、方法綜合且批判性強的研究。我們不鼓勵發表描述當地棲息地水生生物的存在和豐富程度的論文，也不鼓勵發表純系統性的論文。

該期刊為水生生態學家（包括湖沼學家和海洋學家）提供了一個論壇，討論從個體到種群、到社區和整個生態系統的不同整合水平的過程和結構相關的生態問題。

Aquatic Ecology創刊于1968年，由Springer Netherlands出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋環境科學 - 海洋與淡水生物學全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 約6月 ，影響因子指數1.7，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
