4. PREPARING THE SUBMISSION
Manuscript Format, Style and Structure
• The language of the journal is English.
• Please use 12-point type in one of the standard fonts: Times, Helvetica, or Courier is preferred.
• It is not necessary to double-line space your manuscript.
• Use up to three grades of heading; the first- , second- and third-order headings should be numbered, e.g.
3 METHOD AND MATERIALS

Parts of the Manuscript
The manuscript should be presented in the following order: Title, author names and affiliations, abstract, keywords, main text, acknowledgements, references, appendices, tables and figures legends. Figures and supporting material (if relevant) should be supplied in separate files. Footnotes must not be used except in the title page and in tables.
Title
The title should be in bold font, short, informative and contain the major key words. Only use capital initial letters for formal terms. Use a colon to separate parts of the title and a capital initial letter in the word starting the second part after the colon; e.g. High-potassium volcanic rocks from the Okinawa Trough: Implications for a cryptic potassium-rich source. The title should not contain abbreviations (see Wiley's best practice SEO tips).
Author names and affiliations
All authors should agree to the order of the author listing, and to the content of the submitted manuscript. The author's institutional affiliations where the work was conducted should be provided. The present address of any author, if different from where the work was carried out, should be supplied in a footnote.
Abstract
All articles require an abstract of up to 250 words. The abstract should provide a concise summary of the whole paper, not just the conclusions, and should be understandable without reference to the rest of the paper. It should contain no citation to other published work.
Keywords
Include up to seven keywords separated by commas. They can include short phrases. They must be listed in alphabetical order.
Correspondence
This should show the name of the corresponding author, institution address and email address.
Funding Information
Details of grants/awards should be included on the title page.
Main Text
The main text should be presented under the following headings: Introduction, Description, Methods and Materials, Results and Interpretation, Discussion and Conclusions.
Acknowledgements
Financial and material support should be mentioned in the acknowledgements. Also thanks can be given to reviewers and editors, and those personnel providing assistance in field campaigns, laboratories etc.
References
References should be prepared according to the style shown in examples below. In the text, citations to works in brackets should follow in alphabetical order and separated by semicolons, for example, (Han, He, Wang, & Guo, 2011; Jahn et al., 2000; Sengör et al., 1993; Windley et al., 2007). Note that in works with 3-5 authors, all authors are named on first citing, but thereafter only as et al. Those works with 6 or more authors are always cited as et al. after the first named author. Dual-authored works in the text are cited either as (Feng & Kerrich, 1990) or Feng and Kerrich (1990). The complete reference list should appear alphabetically by name at the end of the paper.

Tables
Tables should be part of the main document and should be placed on a new page after the references, unless the table is created in excel in which case the file should be uploaded separately. Tables should be numbered consecutively and titled. All table columns should have an explanatory heading. Tables should not be used to present lists, or to duplicate data which are available elsewhere in the article, e.g. in a line diagram.
Apendices
Insert within the main text before the References.
Figures
All illustrations (line drawings and photographs) are classified as figures. Figures should be referenced in the text in a sequential order. All illustrations are called figures and should be referred to as Figure 1, and Figures 2, 3a,b and 4a-d. Each figure should be supplied as a separate file, with the figure number incorporated in the file name. Figure captions should be incorporated in the manuscript text, not in the file name. Avoid different tints of shading in graphs. Use solid black and white or variations of cross-hatching. Annotations, e.g. arrows, should be used to indicate subtle but salient points and should be placed directly onto figures. All Figures, Diagrams and Tables must be fully referenced if duplicated or adapted from another source. Figures must be designed either to fit into a single column width (80 mm) or double column width (176 mm). All symbols and acronyms used must be explained in a legend within the figure.
Figure Legends / Captions
Legends/Captions should be concise but comprehensive – the figure and its legend/caption must be understandable without reference to the text. Where a key to symbols is required, please include this in the artwork itself, not in the figure legend/caption.
Style per multiple figures
• Use the following style e.g., FIGURE 3 BSE images showing the relevant microstructures of the retrogressed eclogites from Golfo Aranci. (a) Panoramic view of garnet porphyroblast and surrounding matrix. (b) Epidote and albite inclusions preferentially concentrated in the garnet core and kyanite in the mantle (taken in cross-polarised light). Abbreviations: Ep = epidote, Grt =garnet, Ky = kyanite.
• Part of figures should be written in lower case e.g. 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d-f.
Style of citing figures and tables in the text
Use (Figure 1) or Figure 1; (Figure 3a,b), (Figures 1, 2), (Table 1).
Preparation of Electronic Figures for Publication: All illustrations must be supplied at the correct
resolution:
• black and white and colour photos - 300 dpi
• graphs, drawings, etc - 800 dpi preferred; 600 dpi minimum
• combinations of photos and drawings (black and white and colour) - 500 dpi
• preferred file format: PDF, TIFF, EPS
• all figures should be named as: [firstauthorsurname]Fig1.pdf
More advice on figures can be found at Wiley’s Guidelines for the Preparation of Figures.
Colour figures: Please note that there are charges for printing in colour but there are no charges for the online version. Once a manuscript is accepted, the Production Manager will discuss likely costs for colour printing.
Authors are encouraged to check recently published articles and those in EarlyView for guidance.
Graphical abstracts
Geological Journal publishes graphical abstracts for research articles and review articles, displayed online in graphical form with a brief abstract, in addition to the up to 250 word abstract above. The online table of contents will display a schematic figure to convey the core message of your paper, alongside a short abstract highlighting the major findings of the paper. Authors should submit a new and stand-alone image, or designate an image already included in the paper. Your short abstract should consist of 2-3 sentences summarizing the essence of the paper. Graphical abstract entries should be submitted to Scholar One in one of the generic file formats and uploaded as ‘Graphical Abstract’ during the initial manuscript submission process. The image should fit within the dimensions of 50mm x 60mm, and be fully legible at this size.

5. EDITORIAL POLICIES AND ETHICAL CONSIDERATION
Editorial Review and Acceptance
The acceptance criteria for all papers are the quality and originality of the research and its significance to journal readership. Except where otherwise stated, manuscripts are single-blind peer reviewed. Papers will only be sent to review if the Editor-in-Chief determines that the paper meets the appropriate quality and relevance requirements.
Transparent Peer Review: This journal is participating in a pilot on Peer Review Transparency. By submitting to this journal, authors agree that the reviewer reports, their responses, and the editor’s decision letter will be linked from the published article to where they appear on Publons in the case that the article is accepted. Authors have the opportunity to opt out during submission, and reviewers may remain anonymous unless they would like to sign their report.
Conflict of Interest
The journal requires that all authors disclose any potential sources of conflict of interest. Any interest or relationship, financial or otherwise that might be perceived as influencing an author's objectivity is considered a potential source of conflict of interest. These must be disclosed when directly relevant or directly related to the work that the authors describe in their manuscript. Potential sources of conflict of interest include, but are not limited to: patent or stock ownership, membership of a company board of directors, membership of an advisory board or committee for a company, and consultancy for or receipt of speaker's fees from a company. The existence of a conflict of interest does not preclude publication. If the authors have no conflict of interest to declare, they must also state this at submission. It is the responsibility of the corresponding author to review this policy with all authors and collectively to disclose with the submission ALL pertinent commercial and other relationships.
