International Journal of Sustainable Development & World Ecology
The International Journal of Sustainable Development and World Ecology is now over fifteen years old and has proved to be an exciting forum for understanding and advancing our knowledge and implementation of sustainable development. Sustainable development is now of primary importance as the key to future use and management of finite world resources. It recognises the need for development opportunities while maintaining a balance between these and the environment. As stated by the UN Bruntland Commission in 1987, sustainable development should 'meet the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.' This is the primary focus of the journal, and is addressed by papers in environmental sustainability, economic sustainability, and/or social and cultural sustainability. Environmental sustainability includes mitigating effects of climate change, minimising environmental degradation, and sustainable land management. Economic sustainability includes capacity-building, integrated decision making, industry and biotechnology, consumption and production. Social and cultural sustainability includes demographics, human settlements, international law, health and welfare. These three subject areas encompass the scope of the journal. They can be considered empirically, through case studies, as reviews, commentaries, rapid communications, or integrated studies in special issues of the journal. The journal is interdisciplinary and aims to examine topical and important issues and so provide stimulating and, at times, controversial reading. Our worldwide readership includes: * researchers, consultants, scientists and engineers * industry, business managers and policy makers * government (central and local) and non-governmental organisations Preparation of manuscripts should be in accordance with the Instructions for Authors.

However, the Editorial Board can also consider papers that are not directly related to these areas but are considered of interest or of particular concern to the aims and goals of the Journal. Papers published in the Journal are subjected to peer-review in accordance with standard international practices for scholarly journals., In addition, the Journal will also periodically publish information papers, as well as book and conference reviews regarding transport policy and research in Europe.
Journal of World Languages
The Journal of World Languages welcomes papers on topics addressing questions such as those listed below:
- What is a "world language": international? global? Or are these different?
- How does being a world language impact on local identities, whether ethnic, national, or socio-economic?
- What is the effect of language technology on the process?
- What is the effect of the worldwide growth of a language on the writing system, and the distance between speech and writing?
- What is the effect of world language on multimodal communication?
- What is the role of language planning:
(i) systemic: reform of script, regulation of grammar or vocabulary;
(ii) institutional: language education policy? - What are typical speakers' (users') attitudes to the phenomenon:
(i) L1 (i.e., native speakers of a world language);
(ii) L2 (i.e., non-native speakers of a world language)? - What variation is associated with growth towards "world language" status:
(i) Dialectal, i.e., user-based variation?
(ii) Diatypic, i.e., use-based variation (such as register)? - What are the implications of the "world language" phenomenon for a general linguistic theory?

Agricultural Systems
Agricultural Systems is an international journal that deals with interactions - among the components of agricultural systems, among hierarchical levels of agricultural systems, between agricultural and other land use systems, and between agricultural systems and their natural and social environments. In particular, its aim is to encourage integration of knowledge among those disciplines that underpin agriculture. Many contributions will therefore be multi- or inter-disciplinary. Papers generally focus on either methodological approaches to understanding and managing interactions within or among agricultural systems, or the application of holistic or quantitative systems approaches to a range of problems within agricultural systems and their interactions with other systems. Because of the nature of the readership of Agricultural Systems, the contents of papers should be easily accessible (properly introduced, presented and discussed) to readers from a wide range of disciplines.The scope includes the development and application of systems methodology, including system modeling, simulation and optimization; ecoregional analysis of agriculture and land use; studies on natural resource issues related to agriculture; impact and scenario analyses related to topics such as GMOs, multifunctional land use and global change; and the development and application of decision and discussion support systems; approaches to analyzing and improving farming systems; technology transfer in tropical and temperate agriculture; and the relationship between agricultural development issues and policy.The journal publishes original scientific papers, short communications, review articles and book reviews. Review articles and book reviews should only be submitted after consultation or invitation from either an Editor or the Book Review Editor, respectively.Please bookmark this page as: http://www.elsevier.com/locate/agsyFor more information/suggestions/comments please contact AuthorSupport@elsevier.com

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety
Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety (CRFSFS) is one of the peer-reviewed on-line journals of the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT). It has been published quarterly since 2002 (www.ift.org). Review papers provide in-depth coverage of a narrowly defined topic on any food science or food safety aspect, including nutrition, engineering, microbiology, sensory evaluation, physiology, genetics, economics, regulations, and history. A typical review embodies careful assessment of all pertinent studies (weaknesses, strengths, discrepancies in findings) so that insightful, integrative interpretations, summaries, and conclusions are presented. For either an unsolicited or an invited manuscript authors should submit to the Scientific Editor a suitable title, a brief outline, and a short statement describing the importance of the topic and how the presentation will advance food science and food technology. AIM of IFT Peer-Reviewed Publications The Institute of Food Technologists (IFT), the professional society of food science and technology, is committed to the continued improvement and accessibility of its peer-reviewed journals. Collectively, the IFT believes that peer-reviewed journals must have a high priority in any scientific society, and specifically for IFT in order for the society to remain a credible source of science-based information. IFT publishes scientific journals to provide its members and the larger scientific community with scientific information that is important and of current interest. This is done in accord with the highest standards of professional ethics. Research papers serve to convey the results of original work that has a clear relationship to human foods or the teaching of food science. Review papers serve to convey in-depth interpretive coverage of topics of current importance. Acceptability of articles for publication is carefully considered, with quality of the science, appropriateness, and importance weighing heavily in the final decision.
