Conservation Ecology is an electronic, peer-reviewed, scientific journal devoted to the rapid dissemination of current research. Content of the journal ranges from the applied to the theoretical. We encourage papers on the above topics that also integrate the biological and physical sciences, the natural and social sciences, science and policy, and those that develop analyses across space and time scales. The papers considered for publication should present original research, novel synthesis, or judicious review of current theory, method, policy, or practice. Article submission, review, and publication are accomplished entirely electronically.
All papers are rapidly peer reviewed via electronic mail.
Accepted papers will be copyedited and published immediately after acceptance. Conservation Ecology is published exclusively on the Internet. Several mirror sites will allow rapid access from anywhere in the world. Archival printed copies will be placed in several major research libraries. Articles published on the Internet may be cited in the same manner as printed articles.
