Instructions for book-contributors

Humates NATO ARW Home Page


Dear book contributors of the NATO ARW,
following the ARW workshop the organizing committee has agreed to the following procedure in order to expedite the process of preparation, distribution and review of the individual manuscripts:

  1. Book format
    The selected ARW participants will produce a book, which is intended to follow the style of a monograph rather than that of a proceedings issue; in order to facilitate this procedure two measures have been taken:
    1. The tentative list of authors and titles of their presentations will be presented under section B, so that any of the authors can adjust his contribution to the overall appearance of a coherent treatment of the topic: use of humic substances to remediate polluted environments: from theory to practice.
    2. In order to facilitate the writing, a sample file has been distributed by Philippe Baveye ahead of the ARW: P. Baveye and R. Bladon, Bioavailability of organic xenobiotics in the environment: a critical perspective. A Guide for Authors (PREPARATION OF CAMERA-READY TYPESCRIPT: NATO-SERIES) of the Kluwer Publisher helps you to assess the appropriate total extent of your presentation and the outline of the figures, tables, and references. The manuscripts for review are to be printed in a double space format. A number of pages allocated for each author is given for the camera-ready copy and shown next to your chapter in the file with the content of the book. 20 camera-ready pages correspond to about 40 pages in double- space format. Here you will also find files for copyright- transfer and database-sheet. The copyright transfer and database sheet are to be returned to the editors with the revised versions of the manuscripts.
  2. Book contents and chapters
    The book will be organized along the (preliminary) results of the working groups in the round table discussion. To produce a state-of-the-art assessment of the topic additional contributions from authors, who have been invited, but could not attend the ARW will be included. Here is the content of book.
  3. Deadlines and review process
    1. The articles should be sent by e-mail to Norbert Hertkorn (GSF-Germany) and Irina Perminova (MGU/Russia) not later than November 10, 2002. The absolute deadline for receipt is December 1, 2002 - manuscripts received after this time will NOT be considered for publication.
    2. The manuscripts received will be sent by Norbert Hertkorn (GSF-Germany) and Irina Perminova (MGU/Russia) for review, typically to two different other authors which also have been participants of the NATO ARW, or to the independent appropriate reviewers. (Note that some authors of articles in the book could not attend the ARW). This process will take place as soon as the individual manuscripts have been received on an individual basis. Deadline for this review process is December 15, 2002 (i.e. before Christmas, so that the time across the years 2002/2003 can be used for minor and major revisions). The reviewers should send the review to Norbert Hertkorn (GSF-Germany) and Irina Perminova (MGU/Russia) in WORD or RTF-format. The reviews will be forwarded then to the authors.
    3. The proposed revisions should be incorporated carefully and exhaustively and an electronic version of the revised manuscript should be sent with a detailed list of the changes made to the original manuscript to Norbert Hertkorn (GSF- Germany) and Irina Perminova (MGU/Russia) not later than January 15 (desirable) to January 30, 2003.
    4. The editors will assemble to manuscripts into a single text which will sent to the publisher not later than March 1, 2003 (desirable) to March 30, 2003. Correction suggestions with respect to English language coming up during this process (including some "streamlining" with respect to the appearance of the total book) will be sent to the original authors for (fast and informal) approval.
Each participant of the NATO ARW will be sent a book by the publisher; for this process we need an updated and correct address list which should include: With best wishes and hopes on the fruitful cooperation,
    Norbert Hertkorn and Irina Perminova
