The manuscripts accepted by the editorial will be selected through Initial Review processes by Editorial Board. And the manuscripts will be sent to the double anonymous peer review and will go to the next selection by Peer Preview Process. After that, the articles will be returned to the authors to revise. 

Before the article enters the review process, the editor team carries out a pre-review, which emphasizes that the article must be checked for plagiarism, and adjusted to the template. Articles with plagiarism above 20% will be rejected, while articles that do not match the template will be returned for correction.

Review Outcomes

Utilizing feedback from the peer review process, the Editor will make a final publication decision. The review process will take approximately 6 weeks. Decision categories include:

1. Reject - Rejected manuscripts will not be published and authors will not have the opportunity to resubmit a revised version of the manuscript to ANTROPOSEN

2.  In returned - the article does not meet the template will returned, and then resubmit by author

3. In Review - The submission needs to be reworked, but with significant changes, may be accepted. However, It will require a second round of review.

4. Request Revisions - Manuscripts receiving an accept-pending-revisions decision will be published in ANTROPOSEN under the condition that minor/major modifications are made. Revisions will be reviewed by an editor to ensure necessary updates are made before publication.

4. Accept Submission - Accepted manuscripts will be published in the current form with no further modifications required.

The reviewers' and editor's suggestions will be conveyed to the author, who will then have an opportunity to revise the paper. A manuscript returned to an author for revision can be held for a maximum of four weeks.
