SOIL AND WATER RESEARCH
GENERAL INFORMATION
The journal publishes original scientific papers, short communications, up-to-date review articles, and selective book reviews from the disciplines concerned. The authors alone are responsible for the manuscript content and writing. Its subject must be both original and formally correct. Papers are published in English (British spelling). Manuscripts must be grammatically and linguistically correct to avoid acceptance problems.
The article processing charge is EUR 320 (CZK 8000) plus VAT (payable upon acceptance). When submitting an article, the authors agree to this payment if the article is accepted for publication.
Conflict of interest. Any conflict of interests must be declared.
Copyright. All the content of the articles is made freely available for non-commercial purposes, users are allowed to copy and redistribute the material, transform and build upon the material as long as the source is properly cited.
PEER-REVIEW PROCESS
The journal uses double-blind peer review, which means that both authors and reviewers are anonymous to each other throughout the review process.
Peer-review process steps
1. Manuscript submission – the corresponding author submits the manuscript to the journal, online via online editorial system.
2. Editorial office assessment – the editorial office checks the manuscript’s composition and arrangement against the Instructions to Authors.
3. Evaluation by the Editor-in-Chief (EIC) – EIC checks that the manuscript is appropriate for the
journal and is sufficiently original and interesting. If not, the manuscript may be rejected without being reviewed.
4. EIC may assign an Associate Editor (AE) – who will handle the peer review.
5. Invitation to Reviewers – at least two reviewers are assigned by the Editor-in-Chief or the
Associate Editor to a manuscript. As responses are received, further invitations are issued, if necessary, until at least 2 acceptances are obtained.
6. Response to invitations – potential reviewers consider the invitation against their own expertise, conflicts of interest and availability. They then accept or decline. If possible, when declining, they might also suggest alternative reviewers.
7. Review is conducted – the reviewer sets time aside to read the manuscript several times. The first read is used to form an initial impression of the work. If major problems are found at this stage, the reviewer may feel comfortable rejecting the manuscript without further work. Otherwise, they will read the manuscript several more times, taking notes so as to build a detailed point-by-point review. The review is then submitted to the journal, with a recommendation to accept (without change, minor revisions, major revisions and second review) or reject it.
8. The handling editor (Editor-in-Chief or assigned Associate Editor) considers the returned reviews before making an overall decision. If the reviews differ widely, the editor invites and additional reviewer so as to get an extra opinion before making a decision. The editor decides on the publication of papers, taking into account peer reviews and scientific importance.
9. The decision is communicated. The Executive Editor sends a decision e-mail to the corresponding author including any relevant comments.

10. Next steps. If accepted, the manuscript is sent to production. If the manuscript is rejected or sent back for either major or minor revision, the handling editor may include constructive comments from the reviews to help the author improve the paper. If the manuscript was sent back to authors for revision, the reviewers should expect to receive a new version, unless they have opted out of further participation. However, where only minor changes were requested, this follow-up review might be done by the handling editor.
MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION
Submit the manuscript electronically to the editorial system on the journal website https://www.agriculturejournals.cz/web/swr/. The manuscript should be submitted in the following separate files:
(i) Title Page including a type of the document (original paper, review, short communication), manuscript title, names of all authors in the order they will be published in the article (first name, middle name, surname), authors‘ affiliations, corresponding author´s e-mail address, number of characters, dedication and, acknowledgement) (templates).
(ii) Manuscript file including title, abstract, keywords, content/text of the manuscript, tables and figures (see Manuscript file layout), blinded (follow the instructions below) (templates).
(iii) Figures – graphs preferably in MS Excel (editable .xls or xlsx); and images (photographs, schemas, diagrams, maps) in .jpg/.tiff format in high resolution.
(iv) Cover letter – explaining the significance and novelty of the work, the problem that is being addressed, and why the manuscript belongs in this journal.
(v) Authors‘ Declaration form (link For Authors/Author‘ Declaration, signed, scanned, .pdf)
The manuscript files should be blinded:
The authors are fully responsible for the manuscript (also its revised versions and accompanying letter to reviewers) anonymization.
- Names of authors, e-mail addresses and affiliations must be removed.
- Do not mention any dedications or acknowledgements.
- Do not add any page headers or footers that would identify you.
- Avoid, or try to minimise, any self-citation. If you have cited your own work, make sure you have referred to your own references in the third person, e.g. write “Novak and White (2007) have demonstrated”, not “We have previously demonstrated (Novak & White 2007)”
- Remove all personal identifiers from your files such as MicrosoftTM Word® documents and other attachments (figures, tables). Instructions how to remove the file personal identifiers can be found for example on TheWindowsClub website. Please, use the Document Metadata Cleaner to remove the hidden personal information in the revised (corrected) documents.
