Journal Guide

The Vietnam Journal of Chemistry is an official research journal of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, Hanoi. It was founded in 1962 and has been publishing in Vietnamese and English ever since. It is strictly peer-reviewed and welcomes research Articles and Short Communications as well as Reviews covering both theoretical and experimental applications in all areas of chemistry.

From 2019, the journal has switched to the web-based ScholarOne system for the submission and peer review of manuscripts, which makes the publication process more convenient and more efficient for authors, reviewers and editors.

The Vietnam Journal of Chemistry is jointly published by the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology and Wiley-VCH, and is published in six issues per year. All issues are published in English.

Published since 1928, Water Environment Research (WER) is an international multidisciplinary water resource management journal for the dissemination of fundamental and applied research in all scientific and technical areas related to water quality and resource recovery. WER's goal is to foster communication and interdisciplinary research between water sciences and related fields such as environmental toxicology, agriculture, public and occupational health, microbiology, and ecology. In addition to original research articles, short communications, case studies, reviews, and perspectives are encouraged.

The Water and Environment Journal is an internationally recognised peer-reviewed journal for the dissemination of innovations and solutions focussed on enhancing water management best practice. The journal provides a conduit between academics and practitioners. We therefore particularly encourage contributions focussed at the interface between academia and industry, which deliver industrially impactful applied research underpinned by scientific evidence. We are keen to attract papers on a broad range of subjects including water and wastewater treatment, water recycling, sludge treatment, water management and much more.

Weed Biology and Management is an international journal, published four times per year. The journal accepts contributions in the form of original research and review articles in all aspects of weed science. Contributions from weed scientists in the Asia-Pacific region are particularly welcomed. The content of the contributions may relate to weed taxonomy, ecology and physiology, weed management and control methodologies, herbicide behaviors in plants, soils and environment, utilization of weeds and other aspects of weed science. All contributions must be of sufficient quality to extend our knowledge in weed science.

Weed Research is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes topical and innovative papers on weed science, in the English language. It is the official journal of the European Weed Research Society. Papers are taken on all aspects of weeds, defined as plants that impact adversely on economic, aesthetic or environmental aspects of any system. Topics include, amongst others, weed biology and control, herbicides, invasive plant species in all environments, population and spatial biology, modelling, genetics, biodiversity and parasitic plants. The journal welcomes submissions on work carried out in any part of the world. In addition to research papers, the journal also seeks review articles and shorter insights papers covering personal views, new methods and breaking news in weed science. The criteria Editors use for accepting manuscripts for publication are originality, relevance, scientific rigour and the clarity of presentation. The journal accepts approximately 40% of submitted manuscripts and the time taken from submission to publication is 11.5 months.
