Journal Title：Journal Of Vegetation Science

The Journal of Vegetation Science publishes papers on all aspects of plant community ecology, with particular emphasis on papers that develop new concepts or methods, test theory, identify general patterns, or that are otherwise likely to interest a broad international readership. Papers may focus on any aspect of vegetation science, e.g. community structure (including community assembly and plant functional types), biodiversity (including species richness and composition), spatial patterns (including plant geography and landscape ecology), temporal changes (including demography, community dynamics and palaeoecology) and processes (including ecophysiology), provided the focus is on increasing our understanding of plant communities. The Journal publishes papers on the ecology of a single species only if it plays a key role in structuring plant communities. Papers that apply ecological concepts, theories and methods to the vegetation management, conservation and restoration, and papers on vegetation survey should be directed to our associate journal, Applied Vegetation Science journal.

《植被科學雜志》發(fā)表有關植物群落生態(tài)學各個方面的論文，尤其側(cè)重于開發(fā)新概念或方法、測試理論、確定一般模式或可能引起廣大國際讀者興趣的論文。論文可以關注植被科學的任何方面，例如群落結構（包括群落組裝和植物功能類型）、生物多樣性（包括物種豐富度和組成）、空間模式（包括植物地理和景觀生態(tài)學）、時間變化（包括人口統(tǒng)計、群落動態(tài)和古生態(tài)學）和過程（包括生態(tài)生理學），只要重點是提高我們對植物群落的了解。該雜志只發(fā)表單一物種生態(tài)學的論文，前提是該物種在構建植物群落方面發(fā)揮了關鍵作用。將生態(tài)概念、理論和方法應用于植被管理、保護和恢復的論文以及關于植被調(diào)查的論文應直接投遞給我們的附屬雜志《應用植被科學》雜志。

Journal Of Vegetation Science創(chuàng)刊于1990年，由Wiley-Blackwell出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋環(huán)境科學 - 林學全領域，此刊是中等級別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業(yè)認可度不錯，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 約2月 ，影響因子指數(shù)2.2，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
