Article Formatting Guidelines

Please refer to the paper template or contact us at support@jqrpub.org for detailed guidelines, which are outlined below.

Title: The title of the manuscript should be concise, limited to 25 words or fewer, and devoid of abbreviations. It should clearly describe the essence of the paper, with only the first letter of the first word and proper nouns capitalized. For example: “Phosphorus forms and distribution in the Zhejiang coastal sediment in the East China Sea”.

Author Information: Provide the full names and affiliations of all authors. Include the contact details of the corresponding author, including telephone number, fax number, and email address.

Abstract: The abstract must be informative and self-contained, summarizing the manuscript’s content in 300 words or fewer. It should clearly present the study's background, methods, results, and conclusions. Avoid abbreviations and adhere to standard nomenclature.

Keywords: List 3-10 keywords following the abstract. Include any abbreviations used.

Text:

• Introduction: The introduction should establish the context of the study, presenting a clear statement of the research problem, reviewing relevant literature, and outlining the approach or solution proposed. It should be broad enough to engage a wide range of scientific disciplines.

• Materials and Methods: This section should offer a comprehensive overview of the study design. Provide detailed descriptions of materials or participants, experimental procedures, interventions, and analyses. Describe new methods in detail, cite previously published procedures, and briefly note significant modifications. Capitalize trade names and include the manufacturer's name and address.

• Results: Present the results of the experiment in detail, supporting the study’s conclusions. Use the past tense for results from the authors' experiments and the present tense for previously published findings. The results and discussion sections may be combined or presented separately. Avoid speculation and detailed interpretation of data in the results; reserve these for the discussion section.

• Discussion: Summarize the reasons and evidence of your argument. It should summarize the forecasting of the research. It should explain why this research or study is important.

• Conclusion: The conclusion is intended to help the reader understand why your research should matter to them after they have finished reading the paper. A conclusion is not merely a summary of your points or a re-statement of your research problem but a synthesis of key points. For most essays, one well-developed paragraph is sufficient for a conclusion, although in some cases, a two-or-three paragraph conclusion may be required.

Importance of a Good Conclusion:

Acknowledgements: Include acknowledgements for individuals, grants, and funding sources.

Formatting: Prepare the manuscript in single-column, double-spaced format, using Microsoft Word. Use a standard font such as 12-point Times New Roman. Add line numbers on the left side. The maximum length is 10,000 words for technical papers and 3,000 words for technical notes. Each figure or table counts as 160 word-equivalents.

References:
Include only published or accepted manuscripts. Do not cite meeting abstracts, conference talks, or unpublished papers. Personal communications must be substantiated by a letter from the relevant authors. Use the citation-sequence method with references numbered in the order they appear in the text. Cite references in the text using bracketed numbers, with multiple citations separated by commas or ranges. Provide at least one online link for each reference (preferably PubMed).

Tables:
Tables should be minimal and simple. Type tables double-spaced, with headings and footnotes on separate pages. Number tables consecutively in Arabic numerals, providing a heading and legend for each. Tables should be self-explanatory and should not repeat data presented in figures or text. Use a normal, uniform font (Times New Roman, 9 points, no bold or italics).

1. To ensure compliance with journal standards, tables should be used sparingly and designed with simplicity in mind. Authors are strongly encouraged to submit tables in .doc format.
2. Tables must be double-spaced throughout, including headings and footnotes. Each table should occupy a separate page, be numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals, and be accompanied by a descriptive heading and a legend.
3. Tables should be self-explanatory, requiring no reference to the main text. Ideally, the legend should detail the methods used in the experiments, rather than including these descriptions in the main text.
4. Redundancy in data presentation must be avoided; data should not be presented in both table and graph form, nor should it be repeated in the text. Data from Excel spreadsheets can be copied and pasted into a Word document, but embedding Excel files as objects is prohibited.
5. All text and numbers within the tables should use a standard, uniform font—Times New Roman, 9-point, without bold or italics.
6. Capitalization should be minimal; only the first letter of the first word in the heading should be capitalized, except for proper nouns.
7. For numbers greater than 1,000, each group of three digits should be separated by a comma (e.g., 1,630,000 instead of 1630000).

Figures:
Submit photographic images in .doc, TIFF, or JPEG formats. Images must meet the following resolutions: Line Art 800 dpi, Combination 600 dpi, Halftone 300 dpi. Figures should be cropped closely to the image. Use Arabic numerals and upper-case letters for figure parts. Legends should be detailed enough to understand the figure independently of the text. Color figures should be of high quality (at least 300 dpi) if intended for color printing.

1. Figure Resolution and Format: All original figures must be of high quality, with a minimum resolution of 600 dpi, and saved in either .tif or .jpg format.

2. Figure Dimensions: Figures should be appropriately sized, with a maximum width of either 8 cm or 16 cm, and a maximum height of 24 cm. It is essential to set the size of the figure first, before adding any text, numbers, symbols, or other elements.

3. Font Specifications: All text and numerical data within figures should be presented in a uniform font, specifically Times New Roman, at 9-point size, without the use of bold or italics.

4. Capitalization Rules: Only the first letter of the initial word in the first line should be capitalized, except for proper nouns.

5. Axis System: If the figure includes an axis system, both the coordinate lines and points should be emphasized with bold formatting.

6. Line Clarity: All lines within the figure should be distinct, rendered in black, and of medium thickness to ensure clarity.

7. Numerical Formatting: For numbers exceeding 1,000, a comma should be used to separate every three digits. For example, 1,630,000 should be displayed instead of 1630000.

8. Axis Titles: Units in axis titles must be enclosed in parentheses, e.g., "Flow discharge (m³/s)."

9. Rotation: Rotate the y-axis title by 90 degrees counterclockwise, as shown below.

10. Subfigure Arrangement: For figures containing two subfigures, it is recommended to place one on the left and the other on the right, with each subfigure being less than 8 cm in width.

11. For figures containing four subfigures (labeled A, B, C, D), subfigure (A) should be positioned in the top left, (B) in the top right, (C) in the bottom left, and (D) in the bottom right.

Figure Legends: Provide legends on the bottom of the figure.

Tables and Equations as Graphics:

• If equations or tables cannot be encoded in MathML or XML/SGML, submit them as discrete TIFF or EPS files. Ensure consistent and legible font sizes throughout.
• Suggested Equation Extraction Method
• Table Specifications
• Equation Specifications
