AOS Announces New Titles for Top-Ranked Scientific Journals
17 August 2020
AOS STAFF
Catherine Lindell, Editor-in-Chief, The Condor: Ornithological Applications
Scott Sillett, Editor-in-Chief, The Auk: Ornithological Advances
The American Ornithological Society (AOS) is excited to announce changes to the names of its two journals, both of which are among the top three journals in the field of ornithology. Beginning with the first issues in 2021, our journals will be published under the new titles Ornithology for Auk and Ornithological Applications for Condor. The new titles will carry on the tradition of excellence in avian research that was established with the first volume of Auk in 1884 and Condor in 1899.
The final issues of Auk (to be published in October) and Condor (November) are now closed for new submissions. New, accepted manuscripts will be published in Ornithology and Ornithological Applications. Journal volume numbering will continue the on-going series: the January issue of Ornithology will be volume 138 and the February issue of Ornithological Applications will be volume 123.
Both journals will continue to publish peer-reviewed papers under their new titles with the same scope of content, and AOS members will continue to receive unlimited access to the journals as a membership benefit. These new names clearly reflect the focus of each journal and are part of a broader strategy to increase the quality and international stature of AOS publications. For more information about the 18-month effort that culminated in the name changes, see https://americanornithology.org/aos-proposes-new-names-for-auk-and-condor/.We will provide more details about Ornithology and Ornithological Applications in the coming weeks. We especially wish to thank the Publications Futures Committee for their efforts, and our members, readers, authors, and reviewers for their interest, support, and confidence in our journals.

Instructions to Authors
Publish in Ornithology
The Editors welcome submissions to Ornithology that adhere to the Instructions for Authors. Manuscripts that do not meet all of the requirements contained therein will not be considered for publication and may be returned to the authors for completion.
For support and more information please contact Ornithology editorial office at aospubs@americanornithology.org.
For detailed instructions on manuscript preparation and the review process, please see the Instructions for Authors.
About the journal
Aims and scope
Ornithology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes original research and scholarship advancing the fundamental scientific knowledge of bird species and of broad biological concepts (e.g., ecology, evolution, behavior, physiology, genetics) through studies of bird species. Articles often introduce or employ innovative empirical and theoretical approaches and analyses.
Ethical policies
Authors should observe high standards with respect to publication best practice. Falsification or fabrication of data, plagiarism, including duplicate publication of the authors' own work without proper citation, and misappropriation of work are all unacceptable practices. Any cases of ethical or publication malpractice are treated very seriously and will be managed in accordance with the Commission on Publication Ethics (COPE) guidelines. Further information about OUP's ethical policies.
Plagiarism
Manuscripts submitted to Ornithology may be screened with iThenticate anti-plagiarism software in an attempt to detect and prevent plagiarism. Any manuscript may be screened, especially if there is reason to suppose part or all of the text has been previously published. Prior to final acceptance any manuscript that has not already been screened may be put through iThenticate. More information about iThenticate.
Animal research
Research submitted to Ornithology must follow animal welfare standards described in Fair, J., E. Paul, and J. Jones, Eds. 2010. Guidelines to the Use of Wild Birds in Research. Washington, D.C.: Ornithological Council. Manipulative studies also must be performed in accordance with the legal requirements of the relevant local or national authority; the name of the authorizing body must be stated in the paper. Procedures should be such that animals do not suffer unnecessarily. The text of the paper must include details of any manipulative procedures and of anesthetics used. The journal reserves the right to reject papers where the ethical aspects are, in the Editor's opinion, open to doubt.
Disclosure
Any financial interests or connections, direct or indirect, or other situations that might raise the question of bias in the work reported or the conclusions, implications, or opinions stated—including pertinent commercial or other sources of funding for the individual author(s) or for the associated department(s) or organization(s), personal relationships, or direct academic competition—should be disclosed. For further information see the FAQ.
If there are none, please declare no conflicts of interest and include it in the Acknowledgments section of your paper.
If one or a few authors have a conflict to disclose, further to that statement, there should be an additional statement for those remaining authors who do not have any conflicts of interest.
Data policies
OUP's policy on data and privacy.
Availability of Data and Materials
Ornithology requires all authors, where ethically possible, to publicly release all data and software code underlying any published paper as a condition of publication. Authors are required to include a Data Availability Statement in their article.
We require that data be presented in the main manuscript or additional Supplemental Material files, or deposited in a public repository whenever possible. The Editor-in-Chief will consider alternative repositories that issue a persistent identifier such as a DOI or accession number but we prefer that authors use Dryad. For information on general repositories for all data types, and a list of recommended repositories by subject area, please see Choosing where to archive your data.
Data Availability Statement
The inclusion of a Data Availability Statement is a requirement for articles published in Ornithology. Data Availability Statements provide a standardised format for readers to understand the availability of data underlying the research results described in the article. The statement may refer to original data generated in the course of the study or to third-party data analysed in the article. The statement should describe and provide means of access, where possible, by linking to the data or providing the required unique identifier.
The Data Availability Statement should be included in the endmatter of your article under the heading ‘Data availability’.
More information and examples of Data Availability Statements.
Data Citation
Ornithology supports the Force 11 Data Citation Principles and requires that all publicly available datasets be fully referenced in the reference list with an accession number or unique identifier such as a digital object identifier (DOI). Data citations should include the minimum information recommended by DataCite:
[dataset]* Authors, Year, Title, Publisher (repository or archive name), Identifier
The below data citation example can be used as a formatting template for authors:
Smith, J., and T. Jones (2020) Data from Title of Article. Ornithological Applications 123:1-12. Doi.dryad
*The inclusion of the [dataset] tag at the beginning of the citation helps us to correctly identify and tag the citation. This tag will be removed from the citation published in the reference list.
Preprint policy
Authors retain the right to make an Author’s Original Version (preprint) available through various channels, and this does not prevent submission to the journal. For further information see our Online Licensing, Copyright and Permissions policies. If accepted, the authors are required to update the status of any preprint, including your published paper’s DOI, as described on our Author Self-Archiving policy page.
Third-party permissions
In order to reproduce any third party material, including tables, figures, or images, in an article authors must obtain permission from the copyright holder and be compliant with any requirements the copyright holder may have pertaining to this reuse. When seeking to reproduce any kind of third party material authors should request the following:
non-exclusive rights to reproduce the material in the specified article and journal;
electronic rights, preferably for use in any form or medium;
the right to use the material for the life of the work; and
world-wide English-language rights.
It is particularly important to clear permission for use in online versions of the journal, and we are not able to accept permissions which carry a time limit because we retain journal articles as part of our online journal archive. Further guidelines on clearing permissions.
Self-archiving policy

Funder policies
See this page for information about compliance with funder requirements including PubMed/PMC deposits.
Charges
Ornithology offers the option of publishing under either a standard licence or an open access licence. Please note that some funders require open access publication as a condition of funding. If you are unsure whether you are required to publish open access, please do clarify any such requirements with your funder or institution.
Should you wish to publish your article open access, you should select your choice of open access licence in our online system after your article has been accepted for publication. You will need to pay an open access charge to publish under an open access licence.
Details of the open access licences and open access charges.
OUP has a growing number of Read and Publish agreements with institutions and consortia which provide funding for open access publishing. This means authors from participating institutions can publish open access, and the institution may pay the charge. Find out if your institution is participating.
Please note that you may be eligible for a discount to the open access charge based on society membership. Authors may be asked to prove eligibility for the member discount.
