limnology-and-oceanography

separate

Use when targeting Limnology and Oceanography or deciding whether an aquatic-sciences manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the aquatic-process-insight bar, biogeochemical and plankton/microbial evidence expectations, ASLO house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

When to use

• fit/framing check for a freshwater or marine aquatic-science paper
• re-framing aquatic ecology, biogeochemistry, or plankton/microbial studies around process insight
• choosing between Limnology and Oceanography, global-biogeochemical-cycles, global-change-biology, and hydrology or geophysics venues
• assessing aquatic-process and measurement expectations across the limnology–oceanography continuum
• checking ASLO house style and structure
• official-submission re-check
• desk-reject heuristics

When not to use

• terrestrial studies
• purely physical-oceanography papers with no biological or biogeochemical coupling
• descriptive surveys
• single-system observations without mechanism
