Inland Waters is a new peer-reviewed journal for original papers that advance our understanding of inland aquatic ecosystems and their management.

The new journal replaces Verhandlungen, but will remain as faithful as possible to the niche that SIL occupies, with encouragement of a worldwide set of authors and short (except for papers arising from named and plenary talks at Congresses), rapidly published papers. Inland Waters is an ‘online first’ journal, publishing papers online as they are accepted, and then in four print issues per year. It is published by the Freshwater Biological Association.

The first two issues have been published online. See their contents below.

SUBSCRIPTION / MEMBERSHIP

The journal is available through membership of SIL (with free online access to SIL members) and by subscription.

Subscription rates:

For subscription and membership enquiries, please email journal@limnology.org

CALL FOR PAPERS

Authors are invited to prepare manuscripts for submission. All aspects of physical, chemical, and biological limnology are appropriate, as are papers on applied and regional limnology.

Specific inquiries from authors should be directed to the Editor:

AIMS & SCOPE

Inland Waters – Journal of the International Society of Limnology (SIL) is the peer-reviewed, scholarly outlet for original papers that advance science within the framework of the society. The journal promotes understanding of inland aquatic ecosystems and their management.

The journal aims to publish:

  • a set of internationally diverse limnological submissions that serve the needs of SIL. Subject matter parallels the content of SIL Congresses, and submissions based on presentations are encouraged. All aspects of physical, chemical, and biological limnology across organizational levels from autecology to ecosystem studies are appropriate, as are papers on applied and regional limnology.
  • articles resulting from plenary lectures presented at SIL Congresses and occasional synthesis articles.
  • issues dedicated to a particular theme, specific water body, or aquatic ecosystem in a geographical area.

Inland Waters publishes standard manuscripts of about 5000 words (with appropriate tables and figures) and focal articles entitled “Research Briefs” (<2500 words, with limited tables and figures). Review and publication of these short articles are fast-tracked to accelerate communication of emerging issues, novel findings, and advance scholarly exchange.

Inland Waters is published consecutively (as papers are accepted for publication) online and in paper format in 4 printed issues per year. It is published and maintained by the Freshwater Biological Association (FBA). Access to the electronic version is provided to all SIL members and subscribers, and printed issues are available for an extra charge.

Publication is not restricted to SIL members.

Manuscripts suitable for publishing in Inland Waters:

  • contain original material or contemporary reviews – material must not be published elsewhere in any medium, either by the authors or others, and must not be currently under consideration for publication in any other medium.
  • focus on the core aims and scope of the journal.
  • are scientifically sound – should contain all essential features of a scientific contribution such as sound data base, sample design, statistical analysis, and interpretation.
  • are written in English – should be composed in a clear, direct style (attention to details of language avoids misunderstandings; authors who are not native-speakers of English are encouraged to seek help before submission).
  • are submitted in electronic format – see Author Guidelines for details (in two parts: Part 1 Style, Part 2 Submission).

AUTHOR GUIDELINES

Author guidelines for manuscripts submitted to Inland Waters are available on the web site of the Freshwater Biological Association.

CONTENTS

To view abstracts/articles, log in to the journal website at https://www.fba.org.uk/journals/index.php/IW. Abstracts and are open to all; full text articles are available to SIL members and registered subscribers. Research Briefs are also open access, as are the plenary lectures in Volume 1(1).
