Journal of Tropical Ecology

期刊简介：Journal of Tropical Ecology aims to address topics of general relevance and significance to tropical ecology. This includes sub-disciplines of ecology, such as conservation biology, evolutionary ecology, marine ecology, microbial ecology, molecular ecology, quantitative ecology, etc. Studies in the field of tropical medicine, specifically where it involves ecological surroundings (e.g., zoonotic or vector-borne disease ecology), are also suitable. We also welcome methods papers, provided that the techniques are well-described and are of broad general utility.Please keep in mind that studies focused on specific geographic regions or on particular taxa will be better suited to more specialist journals. In order to help the editors make their decision, in your cover letter please address the specific hypothesis your study addresses, and how the results will interest the broad field of tropical ecology. While we will consider purely descriptive studies of outstanding general interest, the case for them should be made in the cover letter.

【译文】热带生态学杂志旨在探讨对热带生态学具有普遍相关性和重要性的主题。这包括生态学的子学科，如保护生物学、进化生态学、海洋生态学、微生物生态学、分子生态学、定量生态学等。在热带医学领域的研究，特别是涉及生态环境（例如，动物源性疾病或媒介传播疾病生态学）的研究也适合。我们欢迎方法论文，只要技术描述得当且具有广泛的一般效用。请记住，专注于特定地理区域或特定类群的 研究，更适合更专业的期刊。为了帮助编辑做出决定，请在您的信函中说明您的研究所针对的具体假设，以及结果将如何引起热带生态学广泛领域的兴趣。虽然我们将考虑具有杰出普遍兴趣的纯粹描述性研究，但此类研究的理由应在信函中提出。
