Freshwater Biology publishes papers on all aspects of the ecology of inland waters, including rivers and lakes, ground waters, flood plains and other freshwater wetlands. We include studies of micro-organisms, algae, macrophytes, invertebrates, fish and other vertebrates, as well as those concerning whole systems and related physical and chemical aspects of the environment, provided that they have clear biological relevance.

Studies may focus at any level in the ecological hierarchy from physiological ecology and animal behaviour, through population dynamics and evolutionary genetics, to community interactions, biogeography and ecosystem functioning. They may also be at any scale: from microhabitat to landscape, and continental to global. Preference is given to research, whether meta-analytical, experimental, theoretical or descriptive, highlighting causal (ecological) mechanisms from which clearly stated hypotheses are derived. Manuscripts with an experimental or conceptual flavour are particularly welcome, as are those or which integrate laboratory and field work, and studies from less well researched areas of the world. Priority is given to submissions that are likely to interest a wide range of readers.

We encourage submission of papers well grounded in ecological theory that deal with issues related to the conservation and management of inland waters. Papers interpreting fundamental research in a way that makes clear its applied, strategic or socio-economic relevance are also welcome.

Review articles (FRESHWATER BIOLOGY REVIEWS) and discussion papers (OPINION) are also invited: these enable authors to publish high-quality material outside the constraints of standard research papers.

《淡水生物學(xué)》發(fā)表有關(guān)內(nèi)陸水域生態(tài)學(xué)各個(gè)方面的論文，包括河流和湖泊、地下水、洪泛平原和其他淡水濕地。我們包括微生物、藻類、大型植物、無(wú)脊椎動(dòng)物、魚(yú)類和其他脊椎動(dòng)物的研究，以及有關(guān)整個(gè)系統(tǒng)和相關(guān)環(huán)境物理和化學(xué)方面的研究，只要它們具有明確的生物學(xué)相關(guān)性。

研究可以集中在生態(tài)層次的任何層面，從生理生態(tài)學(xué)和動(dòng)物行為，到種群動(dòng)態(tài)和進(jìn)化遺傳學(xué)，再到群落相互作用、生物地理學(xué)和生態(tài)系統(tǒng)功能。它們也可以是任何規(guī)模的：從微生境到景觀，從大陸到全球。我們優(yōu)先考慮研究，無(wú)論是元分析、實(shí)驗(yàn)、理論還是描述，強(qiáng)調(diào)因果（生態(tài)）機(jī)制，從中得出明確的假設(shè)。特別歡迎具有實(shí)驗(yàn)性或概念性風(fēng)格的手稿，以及將實(shí)驗(yàn)室和實(shí)地工作相結(jié)合的手稿，以及來(lái)自世界研究較少地區(qū)的研究。優(yōu)先考慮可能引起廣泛讀者興趣的投稿。

我們鼓勵(lì)提交以生態(tài)理論為基礎(chǔ)的論文，這些論文涉及與內(nèi)陸水域保護(hù)和管理有關(guān)的問(wèn)題。我們也歡迎以明確其應(yīng)用、戰(zhàn)略或社會(huì)經(jīng)濟(jì)意義的方式解釋基礎(chǔ)研究的論文。

我們也歡迎評(píng)論文章（淡水生物學(xué)評(píng)論）和討論論文（意見(jiàn)）：這些使作者能夠在標(biāo)準(zhǔn)研究論文的限制之外發(fā)表高質(zhì)量的材料。
