Trees - Structure and Function publishes original papers on the physiology, biochemistry, functional anatomy, structure and ecology of trees and other woody plants. Also presented are articles concerned with pathology and technological problems, when they contribute to the basic understanding of structure and function of trees. In addition to original papers and short communications, the journal publishes reviews on selected topics concerning the structure and function of trees. The Founding Editor of Trees - Structure and Function is Hubert Ziegler. The Editors-in-Chief are Robert D. Guy, Department of Forest Sciences, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada, and Ulrich E. Lüttge, Botanisches Institut der TU, Darmstadt, Germany.5-Year Impact Factor: 2.072 (2012)*
Urban Forestry and Urban Greening is a refereed, international journal aimed at presenting high-quality research with urban and peri-urban woody and non-woody vegetation and its use, planning, design, establishment and management as its main topics. Urban Forestry and Urban Greening concentrates on all tree-dominated (as joint together in the urban forest) as well as other green resources in and around urban areas, such as woodlands, public and private urban parks and gardens, urban nature areas, street tree and square plantations, botanical gardens and cemeteries.The journal welcomes fundamental and applied research papers, as well as review papers and short communications. Contributions should focus on one or more of the following aspects:Form and functions of urban forests and other vegetation, including aspects of urban ecology.Policy-making, planning and design related to urban forests and other vegetation.Selection and establishment of tree resources and other vegetation for urban environments.Management of urban forests and other vegetation.Original contributions of a high academic standard are invited from a wide range of disciplines and fields, including forestry, biology, horticulture, arboriculture, landscape ecology, pathology, soil science, hydrology, landscape architecture, landscape planning, urban planning and design, economics, sociology, environmental psychology, medicine, and education.Special attention will be given to interdisciplinary research as developed under the approaches of, for example, urban forestry, arboriculture, urban greening, urban ecology, urban health, urban agriculture, urban horticulture, urban silviculture, and community forestry.The papers should be written in a style that is understandable to specialists from other disciplines as well as interested policy-makers and higher-level practitioners.
Vegetation Ecology and Diversity is a peer-reviewed, open-access international journal owned and published by the Italian Society of Vegetation Science (SISV).
The journal publishes original research articles covering all aspects of vegetation, ranging from plant communities to landscapes, including dynamic processes and community ecology. It prioritizes papers that emphasize plant community ecology and vegetation surveys to advance ecological models, interpret and classify vegetation, map ecosystems, assess environmental quality, manage and conserve plant biodiversity, and interpret and monitor European habitats. Submissions are expected to be grounded in rigorous, quantitative analyses of physical and biological components.
The journal welcomes territorial studies across various geographic scales and accepts contributions focused on applied research, provided they present innovative methodological approaches and a thorough, up-to-date vegetation analysis.
Vegetation Ecology and Diversity supports the Italian Vegetation Database VegItaly (member of the Global Index of Vegetation-Plot Databases - GIVD EU-IT-001) and urges the contributing Authors to store their vegetation data in it.
From 2012 to 2024, the journal was named Plant Sociology, and its content is accessible via this link. Vegetation Ecology and Diversity succeeds Plant Sociology [2012–2024, ISSN 2704-6192 (online), ISSN 2280-1855 (print)], which was formerly Fitosociologia [1990–2011, ISSN 1125-9078] and Notiziario della Società Italiana di Fitosociologia [1964–1989, ISSN 1120-4605], the historical journals of the Italian Society of Vegetation Science (SISV).
The Journal of Forestry is the most widely circulated scholarly forestry journal in the world. In print since 1902, the Journal has received several national awards for excellence. The mission of the Journal of Forestry is to advance the profession of forestry by keeping professionals informed about significant developments and ideas in the many facets of forestry: economics, education and communication, entomology and pathology, fire, forest ecology, geospatial technologies, history, international forestry, measurements, policy, recreation, silviculture, social sciences, soils and hydrology, urban and community forestry, utilization and engineering, and wildlife management.
Holzforschung is an international scholarly journal that publishes cutting-edge research on the biology, chemistry, physics and technology of wood and wood components. High quality papers about biotechnology and tree genetics are also welcome. Rated year after year as the number one scientific journal in the category of Pulp and Paper (ISI Journal Citation Index), Holzforschung represents innovative, high quality basic and applied research. The German title reflects the journal's origins in a long scientific tradition, but all articles are published in English to stimulate and promote cooperation between experts all over the world. Ahead-of-print publishing ensures fastest possible knowledge transfer.
Wood Science and Technology publishes research articles and reviews covering the entire field of wood and pulp. Coverage extends to wood anatomy and ultrastructure, all aspects of the biology of wood, including the cytology of cambium, xylem and phloem, tree physiology and the microbiological degradation of wood, the chemistry of wood and bark, and wood physics. Also addressed are problems related to wood technology: combustion, drying, and impregnation of wood, its machining, gluing, and finishing, timber mechanics and rheology, and the conversion of wood into pulp. The Editor-in-Chief is Gerd Wegener, Technische Universität München, Germany; the Co-Editor-in-Chief is J.R. Barnett, School of Plant Sciences, The University of Reading, England UK
