Author instructions
Author instructions are available with the specific norms of the journal, including such things as stratigraphic nomenclature. These can be directly obtained at the Geologica Acta website.
Notice that at an early stage of the submission process the manuscript should be submitted together with the figures, tables and captions to illustrations in a unique PDF file. Later on, once the paper is accepted, all figures should be provided in a modifiable EPS format.
Submission, review and resubmission processes
- Manuscripts must be submitted in the format outlined in the author instructions.
- The manuscript will be sent to at least two reviewers and one member of the editorial advisory board.
- Once the reviews are received, the editorial committee of Geologica Acta will decide if the article is acceptable, and if so return it to the corresponding author for correction. If the article is unacceptable, then it will be rejected.
- The authors of accepted articles must then revise the manuscript according to the comments of the reviewers and the editorial committee and return it to the editor.
- When the manuscript has been revised to the specifications of the editorial committee it will be accepted for publication.
