Requirements for Manuscripts:
1.The submitted manuscripts must be neither published nor under consideration for publication elsewhere.
2.The manuscripts should be written in concise and grammatical English.
3.The manuscripts should be arranged in Word format (paper size B5) with one column according to the paper template (including font, size, line space, etc.).
4.The paper should be organized in the following order: title, author(s), affiliation(s), abstract, key words, introduction, research contents, results, conclusions, acknowledgements, and references.
5.The title is preferred to be limited within 10 substantives. Only the initial of the first word needs to be capitalized, the others be lowercase letters (except proper nouns), and unusual abbreviations should be avoided.
6.Authors’ given names should come before surnames. The initials of given names and all the letters of surnames should be capitalized (e.g. John Quincy ABBOT). For Chinese authors’ names, a hyphen is necessary between two given names (e.g. Cheng-li ZHANG). There should be commas between authors’ names.
7.An abstract of more than 150 words (the title not repeated in the first sentence, and diagrams, formulas and references not included), which gives prominence to the creative ideas, the work’s purposes, methods, major findings, conclusions, etc., and key words (3 to 8 words) should be included in the manuscript.
8.The International System of Units (SI) should be adopted in the manuscript. All units in the text, figures, tables, and calculations should be used consistently.
9.All variables symbolized by single letters should be in italics; standard functions and letters symbolizing constants should be in normal style; and letters symbolizing vectors, tensors, and matrixes should be in bold italics. Each symbol that is presented in the paper for the first time should be defined. Foreign characters in capital form or lowercase form in the text and formulas should be distinguishable. Letters, numbers, and signs used as either superscripts or subscripts should be clearly identified.
10.Figures and tables with proper design should be placed right after where they’re referred to in the text. Each figure or table should have a corresponding title and be numbered consecutively. Three-line tables are required to be used. Iconographs should be drawn by computers in the format of TIF, JPG, or BMP for editing convenience. Variables in figures and tables should be in italics. Units of variables in normal style need to be put in parentheses, e.g. v (m/s).
11.If the paper is sponsored by a fund project or an important subject, please show its title at the bottom of the first page and put the serial number in subsequent parentheses.
12.The author-date system is required to be used for citations in the text and the reference list.
(1)Citations in the text: If an author’s name is cited in the text, the publication year in parenthesis should follow the name of the author, e.g. Stoker (1992). If the results, rather than the name of the author(s), are cited, a. use the author’s name(s) and the publication year(s) in parenthesis for the citation of a publication with two or less authors, e.g. (Stoker, 1992), (Lyn and Goodwin, 1987; Stoker, 1992); b. use the first author’s name followed by “et al.” for the citation of a publication with three or more authors, e.g. (Xie et al., 2004; Stoker, 1992); and c. use a lowercase letter like “a, b, c…” following the year to distinguish the works that are published during the same year by the same author e.g. (Zienkiewicz, 1995a, b, c).
(2)The reference list should consist of all published works referred to in the text, and arranged alphabetically by the authors’ names. All the authors of each reference should be listed. References include books, journals, theses, etc., which are published at home and abroad. The following reference formats are generally used:

审稿速度很快,我是2月10日投的稿件,一个月不到就返回了审稿意见,速度上还是很认可的,编辑老师很认真负责,专家也很专业,给出的意见都很可观,让我受益很多。
尊敬的Water Science and Engineering杂志编辑大大,请问我的文章初审通过了没有,已经投了快一个月了,好急啊
Water Science and Engineering杂志审稿较快,14天左右就发回退修,退修之后10天左右再次退修,我吸取上一篇投稿的教训(退修了两次仍未达到要求,退稿了),仔细按照编辑发来的要求修改,顺便提一下,编辑人很好,修改之后很快录用,9个月之后见刊。
昨天联系了Water Science and Engineering杂志,杂志社说我的文章还在初审当中,不知道要什么时候才出结果,好急,菩萨保佑过了,过了
9月中旬在投Water Science and Engineering杂志的稿,10月就通知录用啦,速度杠杠的。需要说的是,这本杂志的编辑排版很严格,录用后会有多次排版校对,编排质量很高,编辑工作非常严谨认真,值得赞扬!
Water Science and Engineering杂志在同类刊物里面相对比较容易中,审稿有回复,退稿有温度(笔者之前的文章因改动较大,杂志建议退稿之后修改重投),不失为一种选择
你好,请问Water Science and Engineering杂志字数要求最高包括参考文献是多少字呢?是不加参考文献6000字以内呢?还是加上参考文献6000字以内呢?
请问这个刊物需要英文摘要吗?知道的可以告诉我吗?
急急,Water Science and Engineering杂志 投稿要多长时间才能出结果,投了好久了,没见一点动静,有人告诉我么
投稿一周,就说初审没过,我好想大哭一场,投这个刊物怎么这么难[伤心][难过]
