BALTICA publishes RESEARCH ARTICLES (up to 20 typed pages, including illustrations and references) and BRIEF REPORTS: REVIEWS (up to 2 pages), INFORMATION (up to 1 page), and BIBLIOGRAPHY. The language is English (U.K.).
COPYRIGHT ©. Upon acceptance of the manuscript in the BALTICA journal, the Authors are asked to transfer to BALTICA trading as the Nature Research Centre institution the rights of the copyright in the Articles they contribute.
SUBMISSION. [A] Manuscripts for publication in the BALTICA journal are accepted permanently: they should be submitted directly by e-mail to balticajournal@gamtc.lt, or using Automatic Submission System (https://baltica.gamtc.lt/lt/new-order). Submission should be followed by a cover letter where the author(s) must declare that the manuscript and its illustrations are original, have not been published before and are not being currently considered for publication elsewhere.
[B] The text, tables, and captions to figures should be presented as separate MS WORD files, as well as illustrations (WORD or JPEG format). The submitted manuscript is subject to an external review. The reviewed manuscript, as a rule, is e-mailed back to the corresponding author for revision and corrections. Reviewers remain anonymous to the authors, unless they wish to be identified.
[C] Author(s)s of the accepted manuscript should submit the final (revised) version as MS WORD files; all graphic elements and photos should be stored as separate files, optionally in JPEG, TIFF, PDF or EPS format.
[D] The accepted article is sent as PDF file to the corresponding author for proofreading. Additions and changes, except small corrections and spelling mistakes, are not allowed in the proof. After proofreading, the final version of the article must be sent to BALTICA together with a scanned transfer of copyright signed by the corresponding author.
[E] The accepted articles are published online and have an Open Access on the website of the Nature Research Centre. The author(s) of the article receive at least one printed copy of that journal issue free of charge.
[F] Supporting Online Material (figures, tables, references, videos, etc.) could be followed by published articles (available only in the online version of the journal).
TEXT. The linguistic correction of the manuscript language (English, U.K.) by native speaker or professional translator is strongly recommended. The manuscript should be typed using Times New Roman, 12 pt on A4 size sheet (type area 18×24 cm), 1.5-spaced with default blank spaces on the margins. The manuscript should be arranged as follows:
[1] Title (short but informative).
[2] First name (in full) and surname of the author(s). Corresponding author should be marked by asterisk. Each co-author must indicate his own ORCID number (if he has).
[3] Abstract (up to 250 words) and a set of keywords (minimum of 5). Please note that keywords should not duplicate words in the title.
[4] Affiliation and institutional address of the author(s), e-mail of each author.
[5] In the main text, no more than four grades of not numbered headings should be used, printing should start from the left margin. SI units should be used throughout, with their standard symbols. On the left blank space, marginal notes (Fig. Figs. Table) are given. References in the text are given as follows: (Johnsson 1990), (Johansson, Petersson 1990; Petersson et al. 1990 – for three or more authors in the last case).
[6] References list is given alphabetically under the author’s or editor’s surname; titles of magazines and publications should be given unabbreviated. References in Russian (Cyrillic) or other non-Latin alphabets should be transliterated into the Latin alphabet and translated into English; the original language of the reference should be indicated in square brackets as follows: [In Russian]. References in the Latin alphabet could be also translated into English, but it depends on the option of the author(s). Only published papers are to be included in the reference list. The publisher should be mentioned for books. Pages of reference sources should be given from–to for articles, and the whole number (pp.) for books. Website should be referred as given in the Internet source.
[7] The captions to figures should be numbered and stored as a separate file.
[8] Table captions should be given above the tables. Keep the number of tables to a minimum and make them as simple as possible. The tables should be numbered in Arabic numerals.
[9] Use the Microsoft Equation Editor of Word 2003, or Math function of Word 2007 or 2010 to create your equations.
[10] Please follow these rules during preparation of the text file:
• The same elements should be keyed in exactly the same way throughout the manuscript; an abbreviation should be fully explained using it first time.
• Do not right-justify the text (use left-justify option).
• Non-breaking hyphens (-) should be used in compound adjectives appearing before the noun.
• En–dash hyphen (–) should be used in ranges and when the first part of a compound does not modify the second part.
• Use en–dash hyphen in page ranges in the reference list.
• Use a single space after a period.
• The space bar should only be used as a word separator.
ILLUSTRATIONS. Figures should be prepared as separate files in JPEG, TIFF, PDF, WMF, EMF, EPS, and EXEL format according to these technical requirements:
• Resolution should be no less than 300 DPI.
• Picture width (for printing without magnification or reduction) should be 82.5 mm, 130 mm, or 170 mm.
• Font – Arial, the smallest font – 6–8 pt (under special circumstances –5 pt).
• If there are sections inside the same figure (numbered: a, b, c, ...), the letters used for numbering should be no bigger than 10–11 pt.
Maps and graphs should be presented with a linear scale given; the geographic coordinates must be indicated in the situational scheme of a study area. Avoid designing figures and tables to be turned 900 on the page. Tonal and color illustrations are acceptable. The original illustrations (maps, drawings, etc.) should be personalized – author’s name must be indicated in the illustration or caption to figure.
