Aquatic Biology (AB) serves as a worldwide forum for research on all aspects of the biology of organisms living in marine and fresh waters. It complements the material that appears in Marine Ecology Progress Series (MEPS) and Aquatic Microbial Ecology (AME). Multidisciplinary and international, AB will be developed and tailored to reflect the evolving needs of the scientific community it serves.
Produced by the MEPS/AME team, and with an identical format, AB features the same leading standards as all IR journals:
- high quality of scientific contributions
- rapid publication (3 to 4 weeks from final acceptance)
- high technical standard of presentation
AB is initially being published with free Open Access; thus, AB authors enjoy immediate worldwide visibility. The first four print issues (Vol. 1, Nos. 1-3, and Vol. 2, No. 1) are now available. Complimentary copies can be requested from ir(at)int-res.com
