ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION

2019-11-18 initial submitted; 2019-11-19 send back to author (Because of the issue that how many digits should be reserved in the number of the table it was returned by the editor, and it is recommended to use valid numbers); 2019-11-19–2019-12-04 review invited (Although the list of recommended reviewers was submitted, it was still difficult to find reviewers, so it took a lot of time for the editor to find reviewers); 2020-01-21 major revision [The two reviewers had 23 questions (10/13) in total, which were not difficult to answer. But during the epidemic period I was at home, and I was in a hurry to write my thesis at the same time, So I started to revise the manuscript on February 22, 2020. On March 9 the first revision and response letter were sent to my supervisor and some suggestions were given. Later, under the guidance of the supervisor, the revision was made twice. On 19th duplication was checked and I revised again. Finally, it was submitted 2 days before the deadline.] 2020-03-20 revised submitted; 2020-04-03 accept (it was sent to the reviewer the next day after submission, and the reviewer was very fast this time). I feel that both the editor-in-chief and the deputy editor-in-chief are very responsible.

Each journal has some time limit for processing the manuscript such as first decision, review, etc. This journal takes its maximum time limit due to COVID 19 . After uploading, it took 7 months to accept the manuscript. Totally 3 reviewers asked the questions to improve the manuscript. All the questions are valuable, reasonable and interesting. Especially, the figure alignment and document formatting such as figure alignment, italics, bold, etc., need to be checked properly before upload.

Once I used to have an EP, I have always been concerned about EP.Overall, the EP journal has a good recognition.Many friends in the comment section mentioned the problem of the decline of IF in 2017. This is mainly due to the expansion of the EP in the past two years. However, after the pain period of the expansion, the EP will usher in the IF rising period.As of September 9, 2018, the implementation impact factor of EP is 3.71, TOTAL is 3.72, and EST is 4.58. On September 6, 2017, the real-time factor EP is 2.50, Total is 2.83, EST is 3.96, and final EP is 4.36.Total is 4.61 and EST is 6.65.According to this rhythm, EST will definitely break 7 when IF comes out in 2018, EP is expected to be around 5.8, but hopefully breaks 6; Total is expected to be between 5.5-5.7, we will wait and see.

After submitting the manuscript for 3 months, the major revision is proposed in five categories (including language issues).It was accepted after one month of revision.I feel that the editor is very detailed, and the comments are very pertinent. After the revision, I feel that the quality of the article does improve.It is best to consider the innovation, do not select for some purely repeated research, and try to pay attention to the details, don't make mistakes, otherwise you will be caught, and you need to solve it sooner or later.

There are four reviewers in the first trial. After two major overhauls, there are two minor repairs. The opinions are super-multiple. I feel that the reviewers and editors are more responsible and attitude.very serious.I hope that EP can become a district, I think they are not very different

The article has been published online on the EP recently. From the submission in December last year, it has been going through a full 6 months, followed by a major overhaul and minor repair.The first trial lasted for more than two months, the second trial lasted for half a month, the speed was quite acceptable, the editor was very responsible, and the three reviewers in the first trial raised a lot of key questions, and the quality of the article was greatly improved. Two reviewers in the second instance,Carefully go to the punctuation and the wording of the word.Overall, I experienced a lot of knowledge through this submission.The publication requirements of EP articles are still relatively strict. The above quality is also okay. It requires a lot of data and certain innovation, but it has not yet been in the previous district. Unfortunately, the impact factor will be lowered this year, and I don’t know why.Finally, thanks to the editor, reviewer.

Reviewed for 6 weeks and received comments from 4 reviewers, very professional and detailed.From scientific issues to language issues.The chief editor is also extremely responsible for helping the touch-up to modify the language.From review to publication, the entire process is extremely efficient.PROOF was received within 24 hours of receipt, and the issue number and page number were discharged in a few days.Reflecting the professionalism, rigor and efficiency of top journals, it is very good!

Why isn't it top??

The submission period is longer, not only the reviewer is not easy to find, but also the review is slow, the submission is under review for more than 2 months, without any news and changes, and the previous journal evaluation is checked.The review speed of journals is slow, with an average of 3 months. It is recommended that people who are in a hurry should be cautious~
