forest-ecology-and-management

separate

Use when targeting Forest Ecology and Management or deciding whether a forest-science manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the ecological-evidence-with-management-relevance bar, silviculture and disturbance expectations, Elsevier house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

When to use

• fit/framing check for a forest-science paper
• re-framing forest-ecology, silviculture, or disturbance studies around management implications
• choosing between Forest Ecology and Management and other venues
• checking journal expectations for ecological rigor coupled to management relevance
• assessing scope for forest stand dynamics, silviculture, disturbance, biodiversity, carbon, and restoration
• evaluating method and evidence bar for defensible ecological evidence with management implications
• reviewing structure and house style for Elsevier research articles
• performing official-submission checklist and pre-submission self-check

When not to use

• non-forest ecological studies
• competent forest-ecology papers with no applied or management implication
• pure biogeochemistry not framed around management or land-use decisions
• replacing the journal's current author guidance
