est-literature-positioning

separate

Use when positioning an Environmental Science & Technology (ES&T) manuscript against prior work across environmental chemistry, engineering, toxicology, and policy. ES&T is multidisciplinary, so the paper must engage the right literatures and state the knowledge gap it closes. It frames the gap and citations; it does not fabricate references.

When to use

• Writing the introduction or knowledge gap framing
• Building a Critical Review or Perspective
• Addressing reviewer feedback on ignored literature or novelty
• Deciding which adjacent fields to cite
• Positioning contribution against prior ES&T work

When not to use

• Fabricating references
