Author Guidelines for Anthropocene Coasts
Anthropocene Coasts
Canadian Science Publishing (CSP) is pleased to announce that article processing charges will be waived for manuscripts submitted by December 31, 2021.
English language improvement service
CSP has affiliated with Editage to offer pre-submission editing services to authors.
Editage will help authors, particularly those for whom English is not their first language, craft well-written manuscripts for submission to the Journal, making it easier for peer reviewers to assess the science of a manuscript and reducing the risk that a paper with good scientific content will be rejected because of a lack of clarity.
This does not guarantee that your manuscript will be sent for peer review or be accepted for publication. Articles accepted for publication will still undergo copy editing as part of the production process.
Publishing authors can submit through the CSP portal to receive a 15% discount on Editage services.

Data availability
Authors must make the supporting data for their original research available in a publicly accessible database and supply a data sharing statement in the article indicating where the data are deposited (include DOIs and/or hyperlinks to the sets online). This journal encourages use of the Polar Data Catalogue .
References
Cite only literature that is highly pertinent; avoid multiple citations.
In the text, references should be cited by author and date: for example, (Walpole 1985) or Green and Brown (1990). If references occur that are not uniquely identified by the authors’ names and year, use letter “a”, “b”, etc. after the year (e.g., Green and Brown 1988a, 1988b). Depending on the sentence construction, the names may or may not be in parentheses, but the year always is. Use “et al.” when there are more than two authors but provide all authors in the list of references.
This journal uses the Harvard citation style. In-text citations take the form (author, year). References must be listed in alphabetical order according to the name of the first author and not numbered.
References must be listed in alphabetical order at the end of the manuscript according to the name of the first author and not numbered. Refer to the List of Title Word Abbreviations available from the ISSN International Centre for accepted abbreviations for journals; only these abbreviations may be used. References to other publications must be carefully checked for completeness, accuracy, and consistency (e.g., pages, volume numbers, and dates).
References with the same first author are listed in the following order.
Papers with one author only are listed first in chronological order, beginning with the earliest paper.
Papers with dual authorship follow and are listed in alphabetical order by the last name of the second author.
Papers with three or more authors appear after the dual-authored papers and are arranged chronologically.
Include DOIs and hyperlinks whenever possible, and do not number the references. If your article is accepted for publication, we will format the list for you.
