《化學生態(tài)學雜志》致力于促進對調節(jié)生物體內部和之間相互作用的天然化學物質的起源、功能和意義的生態(tài)學理解。這種關系通常具有自適應的重要性，包括陸地和水環(huán)境中最古老的通信系統(tǒng)?；瘜W家和生物學家之間發(fā)展起來的強大的跨學科聯(lián)系促進了我們對這些自然界相互作用的理解。歡迎國際化學生態(tài)學協(xié)會的成員或非成員對科學的貢獻，包括評論文章、原始研究論文、快速通信和給編輯的信件。稿件必須是英文的。它們可能包括對自然界相互作用的實質性觀察、所涉化合物的說明、它們的產生和接受機制，以及將這些基本資料翻譯成調查和控制方案。在考慮進行同行評審時，應符合下列準則:論文必須包含生態(tài)學的基本原理。論文應該包含化學和生態(tài)/行為元素。純化學或生態(tài)/行為論文通常是不合適的。然而，強調結構/功能的化學論文，或表現(xiàn)一些新現(xiàn)象的行為論文將被考慮。專注于尋找新藥、除草劑或殺蟲劑的論文是不合適的。應用化學生態(tài)學是一個合適的主題，只要工作是基于生態(tài)問題或關注。以環(huán)境科學為重點的論文不應該提交給JCE，除非這項工作涉及到破壞化學生態(tài)的影響的演示。化學和分子研究和寫作必須遵循JCE 34(8): 984(化學)中闡明的指導方針;JCE 35 (12): 1383 (SPME);JCE (36(12):1288 (molecular)。論文必須具有足夠的廣度(避免區(qū)域性的焦點)和新穎性，才能具有國際吸引力。論文必須用可接受的英語寫。如果作者的母語不是英語，我們鼓勵他們在投稿前尋求母語為英語的作者的評審。初步的工作是不能發(fā)表的，但短論文，無論是表達新的想法或不值得全文地位，可以提交在快速溝通類別。論文長度應在5-6頁之間，包含一個圖表和/或表格，且不超過12篇參考文獻

Journal of Chemical Ecology is devoted to promoting an ecological understanding of the origin, function, and significance of natural chemicals that mediate interactions within and between organisms. Such relationships, often adaptively important, comprise the oldest of communication systems in terrestrial and aquatic environments. The strong interdisciplinary association that has developed between chemists and biologists has accelerated our understanding of these interactions in nature.Scientific contributions, including review articles, original research papers, rapid communications, and Letters to the Editor are welcome from either members or nonmembers of the International Society of Chemical Ecology. Manuscripts must be in English. They may include substantive observations of interactions in nature, the elucidation of the chemical compounds involved, the mechanisms of their production and reception, and the translation of such basic information into survey and control protocols.To be considered for peer review, the following criteria should be met:Papers must contain an ecological rationale.Papers should contain both chemical and ecological/behavioral elements. Purely chemical or ecological/behavioral papers usually are not appropriate. However, chemical papers that emphasize structure/function, or behavioral ones that demonstrate some novel phenomenon will be considered.Papers whose focus is the search for new drugs, herbicides, or insecticides are not appropriate. Applied chemical ecology is an appropriate subject matter so long as the work is based on ecological problems or concerns.Papers whose focus is environmental science should not be submitted to JCE unless the work involves demonstration of effects that disrupt chemical ecology.Chemical and molecular research and writing must follow our guidelines as articulated in JCE 34(8): 984 (chemical); JCE 35(12):1383 (SPME); and JCE (36(12):1288 (molecular).Papers must be of sufficient breadth (avoiding a regional focus) and novelty to have international appeal.Papers must be written in acceptable English. Writers whose native language is not English are encouraged to seek a pre-submission review by a native English-speaking writer.Preliminary work is not publishable, but short papers that either express new ideas or do not merit full paper status can be submitted in the Rapid Communication category. Papers should be 5-6 pages in length, contain one figure and/or table, and have no more than 12 references
