Review
If we deem your manuscript appropriate for the journal, we will send it to at least two members of the editorial review team for critical review, comment and recommendation. We ask the reviewers to make a judgment concerning the quality and appropriateness of the manuscript for publication in JRTE. On the basis of the reviewers’ recommendations, JRTE’s editor will decide to publish the manuscript as submitted, publish the manuscript with suggested revisions, request a significant revision and resubmission, or reject the manuscript for publication. In all cases, the editor will notify the author of the decision, and in the event the manuscript is rejected, the editor will forward a summary of the reasons for that decision. We will make every attempt to complete the review process within two to four months following receipt of the manuscript.
