Journal Guide

The international Journal of Nonlinear Mathematical Physics is a mathematical journal devoted to the publication of research papers concerned with the description, solution, and applications of nonlinear problems in physics and mathematics. The main subjects are: * Nonlinear Equations of Mathematical Physics * Quantum Algebras and Integrability * Applications of Lie Group Theory and Lie Algebras * Non-Commutative Geometry * Super Geometry and Super Integrable System * Integrability and Nonintegrability, Painleve Analysis * Spectral Theory and Inverse Spectral Theory * Geometry of Soliton Equations and Applications of Twistor Theory * Deformation and Geometric Quantization * Instanton, Monopoles and Gauge Theory * Differential Geometry and Mathematical Physics.

The mission of the Journal of Nonlinear Science is to publish papers that augment the fundamental ways we describe, model, and predict nonlinear phenomena. It features papers that make an original contribution to at least one technical area and illuminate issues beyond that area's boundaries. Papers can be oriented toward theory, experimentation, algorithms, numerical simulations, or applications as long as the work is creative and sound. In turn, papers oriented toward experimentation, numerical simulations, or applications must not simply report results without an indication of what a theoretical explanation might be. In addition, because ours is a multidisciplinary subject, at minimum the introduction to the paper should be readable to a broad range of scientists and not only to specialists in the subject area.

The Journal of Nonverbal Behavior publishes peer-reviewed original theoretical and empirical research papers on all major areas of nonverbal behavior. The coverage extends to paralanguage, proxemics, facial expressions, eye contact, face-to-face interaction, and nonverbal emotional expression, as well as other relevant topics which contribute to the scientific understanding of nonverbal processes and behavior.

Journal of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology is ready to receive manuscripts on all aspects of occupational diseases, injuries and disability.

The Journal of Occupational Rehabilitation is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed original papers on the rehabilitation of the disabled worker. The journal offers investigations of clinical and basic research; theoretical formulations; literature reviews; case studies; discussions of public policy issues and book reviews. Papers, both clinical and theoretical, derive from a broad array of fields: rehabilitation medicine, physical and occupational therapy, health psychology, orthopedics, neurology, and social work, ergonomics, biomedical and rehabilitation engineering, disability management, law and more. A single multidisciplinary source for information on work disability rehabilitation, the Journal of Occupational Rehabilitation helps to advance the scientific understanding, management, and prevention of work disability.

The Journal of Ocean University of China (Oceanic and Coastal Sea Research) was established in 2002 as one of the official journals of the Ocean University of China. This quarterly journal is published in English so as to serve a wider circle of readers internationally. The journal covers various branches of marine science and technology, such as meteorology, environment sciences and engineering, life sciences, fishery sciences, food sciences and food engineering, medication, chemistry and chemical engineering, geology, remote sensing, and information technology and management. Manuscripts, once accepted, will be published in the form of research papers, notes, reports, letters, reviews or overviews. The journal welcomes contributions from China and abroad.

The Journal of Oceanography is the official journal of the Oceanographic Society of Japan and open to all oceanographers in the world. The main aim of the journal is to promote understandings of ocean systems from various aspects including physical, chemical, biological, geological oceanography as well as paleoceanography, etc. The journal welcomes research focusing on the western North Pacific and Asian coastal waters, but the study region is not limited to the Asian Pacific. The journal publishes original articles, short contributions, reviews, and correspondence in oceanography and related fields free of page charge. Papers describing important new techniques, methods, and apparati will also be considered. Descriptive work will, however, be accepted if they contain general principles. Authors should submit their manuscripts online. Electronic submission substantially reduces the editorial processing and reviewing times and shortens overall publication times.

Founded in 1982, the Chinese Journal of Oceanology and Limnology (CJOL) explores ocean and lake related sciences. CJOL publishes the most up-to-date original research papers, mainly from China, on all aspects of oceanology (or oceanography in the western sense) and limnology related fields. Academic topics include biology, physics, geology, chemistry, hydrology, meteorology, and geography. Applications-sector coverage includes aquaculture, marine resource exploration, remote-sensing, environmental protection, marine engineering, pharmacology, and instrumentation. Most published papers are from projects at provincial and ministerial levels, representing the most advanced research in China. This is the only official learned-society journal of the Chinese Society for Oceanology and Limnology, and it is affiliated with the Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Qingdao, China.

Furthermore, the journal aims to promote Italian medical research within an international context through the careful selection of papers and the choice of English as an official language. The journal’s visibility in the scientific community is further enhanced by its electronic edition available via the publisher’s SpringerLink Information Service at http://www.springerlink.com. Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been reviewed by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in an appropriate version of the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted.Reports of animal experiments must state that the Principles of Laboratory Animal Care (NIH publication no. 86-23 revised 1985) were followed, as were applicable national laws (e.g. the current version of the German Law on the Protection of Animals).
