Papers should be in the form of original research, reviews or short communication. All paper will be rigorously refereed by international experts and subject to appropriate selection and prioritization.
Contributions from all disciplines will be considered but the primary topics covered are: (a) ecology, behaviour and fisheries; (b) physiology, ecotoxicology and biochemistry; (c) molecular, microbiology and genetics; (d) oceanography, satellite imagery and modelling. Any author wishing to write a review should, in the first instance, send a proposal to the executive editor for consideration by the scientific editorial group.
Papers describing work involving experimental procedures on living animals will be published only if they comply with the legal requirements of the UK Home Office. In the case of species not covered by the current law, papers will be published only if it is judged that the experiments have been conducted in a human manner and adequate precautions taken to minimize stress.
