Ichnos-an International Journal For Plant And Animal Traces

Journal Title：Ichnos-an International Journal For Plant And Animal Traces

The foremost aim of Ichnos is to promote excellence in ichnologic research. Primary emphases center upon the ethologic and ecologic significance of tracemaking organisms; organism-substrate interrelationships; and the role of biogenic processes in environmental reconstruction, sediment dynamics, sequence or event stratigraphy, biogeochemistry, and sedimentary diagenesis. Each contribution rests upon a firm taxonomic foundation, although papers dealing solely with systematics and nomenclature may have less priority than those dealing with conceptual and interpretive aspects of ichnology. Contributions from biologists and geologists are equally welcome.

The format for Ichnos is designed to accommodate several types of manuscripts, including Research Articles (comprehensive articles dealing with original, fundamental research in ichnology), and Short Communications (short, succinct papers treating certain aspects of the history of ichnology, book reviews, news and notes, or invited comments dealing with current or contentious issues). The large page size and two-column format lend flexibility to the design of tables and illustrations. Thorough but timely reviews and rapid publication of manuscripts are integral parts of the process.

Ichnos 的首要目标是促进遗迹研究的卓越性。主要重点是追踪生物的行为学和生态学意义；生物-基质相互关系；以及生物过程在环境重建、沉积物动力学、序列或事件地层学、生物地球化学和沉积成岩作用中的作用。每篇投稿都建立在坚实的分类学基础之上，尽管仅涉及系统学和命名学的论文可能不如涉及遗迹学概念和解释方面的论文优先。生物学家和地质学家的投稿同样受欢迎。

Ichnos 的格式旨在容纳几种类型的手稿，包括研究文章（涉及遗迹学原创、基础研究的综合文章）和简短通讯（简短、简洁的论文，涉及遗迹学历史的某些方面、书评、新闻和笔记，或处理当前或有争议问题的受邀评论）。大页面尺寸和双栏格式为表格和插图的设计提供了灵活性。全面而及时的审阅和快速发表稿件是这一流程不可或缺的一部分。
