Open Access - Science topic

I have developed a novel remote sensing technique for agricultural mapping. I would like to publish this work in a high-quality open-access journal, but the Article Processing Charges (APCs) are beyond my financial capacity.

.

Could you please guide me on the best strategies or funding opportunities to cover these costs? Are there specific grants, institutional programs, or funding organizations that support publication fees for innovative research in remote sensing and agriculture? Any advice or shared experiences would be highly appreciated!

I am reaching out to the academic community to seek a collaborator for a research project I am currently finalizing. My study, titled "The Impact of Attachment Styles and Traumatic Experiences on Maladaptive Daydreaming among the Iranian Population: The Mediating Role of Shame and Emotion Regulation", examines the interplay of traumatic experiences and attachment styles in maladaptive daydreaming, with shame and emotion regulation serving as mediators, using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM).

The manuscript is currently under review in Frontiers in Psychiatry (an Open Access journal). However, due to institutional financial limitations in my country (Iran), I am unable to cover the publication fees independently. I am seeking an academic partner or collaborator who shares an interest in this topic and can provide financial support for the publication fees in exchange for co-authorship and active involvement in the study.

I would be happy to share the manuscript and discuss potential contributions in detail. I am confident that this collaboration could result in a meaningful addition to the field and foster valuable international academic partnerships.

If you or someone in your network is interested, please feel free to reach out to me via email at mrmpmz@gmail.com or m.pourmoazzen@sbmu.ac.ir, or message me directly on this platform.

Thank you for your time and support. I look forward to the possibility of working together!

Can anyone recommend a peer-reviewed journal that accepts natural history observations on Indian butterflies? A Journal that is open-access and doesn't charge for submitting a manuscript.

We should create a list of PREDATORY Journals. I'll start with the first one:

I recently added an AI-generated summary to my article "Intra-industry diversification effects under firm-specific contingencies on the demand side" (2020, Florian Smeritschnig, Jakob Muellner, Phillip C. Nell, Martin Weiss) by including it as a supplementary resources. I did this to give those who do not have open access to the full text a brief understanding of the main points of my article.

The problem is that the title is still reflected on the article's subpage under "Linked data", but there is actually no file available and no bottom to delete it. Could you please delete the title?

The second question is whether it's possible to upload an additional file - e.g. the AI-generated summary of the article, but not the public or private full text - to the same article page, but without it appearing as a completely separate entry in the list of my other research items? For example, I have the paper "Electoral uncertainty and the multinational corporation a conceptualization, firm-level effects and strategies" (2024) by Puck, Muellner & Reinprecht. I added an AI-generated summary to this publication as a supplementary resources, and this summary is now among my other research items, along with the original article itself. I don't want to have two entries with the same title, it creates unnecessary confusion, but I do want the AI-generated summary to appear only in the research item entry. Is there a way to do this?

Best,

Jakob

I have an open access article but see no place to add the link. Please advise - with the rise of open access, shouldn’t this be easy to do?

Thank you in advance for your recommendations.

Hi Everyone,

Recently I submitted my manuscript to a journal publisher. What left me wondering is that a question asked by the system in my submission, which was "Do you prefer open access or subscription-based for your manuscript?". This is actually the first time I have been asked that type of question when submitting my manuscripts so far.

Is it a common practice that you have encountered? If so, does it potentially make any certain bias when the journal editorial offices make decisions (accept or reject) on the manuscript? I assume the revenue for open-access is much more worthy than the subscription-based. I might be wrong.

Thanks for everyone's insight!

There are quite a few discussions on predatory journal of "Longdom Publisher".

I found two "fake" papers published by my name "Kazumichi Fujii" in Forest Research:Open Access. I have no relationships with these papers, but my name were used here.

I checked whether texts are really generated by AI on Quillbot and GPTkit, 99-100% is estimated to be AI generated.

I sended my complaining to publisher, but no responses were obtained (as expected). I also sended message to Editorial board members, but two members of editorial board replied to me that they are not members but their names were listed.

Do you have similar experiences and know efficient countermeasures?

Kazumichi Fujii

Soil Scientist in Japan

Which one will you prefer and what are your reasons?

Are there any notable open-access journals with a rapid review and publication timeline in the field of phonology?

I have recently discovered Qeios. It seems that they offer open peer review, immediate publication, and versioning features, aiming to enhance transparency and collaboration in scholarly publishing. It seems like the future of free open access, with voluntary reviewers interested in your paper.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on Qeios. How does it compare to predatory journals in terms of credibility, quality, and overall impact on the research community?

Moreover, don't you think it could be better than ArXiv?

Thanks in advance for your insights!

Greetings, dear colleagues!

I have an unusual question related to publishing and reviewing ethics, and I am very curious about your opinion. Do you believe that reviewing papers for subscription, open-access, and hybrid journals without any monetary or other compensation falls within our work description and is one of our primary responsibilities as scientists? Or do you think it is already enough that we need to come up with ideas, perform research, write, publish, and, in addition to all of that, pay?

Most of the journals in my field charge between $3,000 and $5,000 for open-access publication. In my opinion, that budget should be more than enough to remunerate reviewers, at least with a symbolic amount of money.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this matter!

Do you think gender diverse boards redact proprietary information? In my recent paper co-authored with Kumari Ranjeeni, we examine whether gender-diverse boards prioritize product market concerns over capital market incentives when proprietary costs are high. We argue that gender-diverse boards protect their firm’s competitive edge and maximize long-term shareholder wealth by ethically and carefully maintaining the confidentiality of proprietary information.

What are your thoughts?

The DOI to our paper that is available Open Access is:

I came across the Green Building and Sustainable Architecture collection under Nature Scientific Reports some weeks ago. https://www.nature.com/collections/gajghaebce

The special issue/collection is highly relevant to the manuscript I am planning to submit for consideration for publication with my co-authors. However, we do not have funding for Open Access publication.

Does anyone know if Nature Scientific Reports only publishes open access now i.e. publishing Open Access mandated by the journal now? Or there a way to publish non-open access? Or get a waiver?

After all the research is based on our industry data collected and insights gleaned from built projects over the years which we feel has valuable lessons learned for the wider industry and academia.

The authors in this manuscript are based in Singapore and the USA so we don't qualify under the Low Income Countries category article processing charge (APC) waiver either.

It feels unfair if industry authors who don't have access to university open access waivers want to publish their findings but don't have a chance to do so because of high APCs.

I have already written to journal but didn't hear back.

Any suggestions or insights will be useful. Thank you.

It happened that I am asked to review a paper for a journal. Incidentally, the paper is posted as a preprint in another database as open access with DOI. It is completely citable.

Now, should I reject the paper or should I review the paper and send comments? Is it ethical to submit a paper after its preprint is published in another database??

I am preparing a manuscript funded by a Horizon 2020 project that is already closed and I do not have budget for publishing open access. I am considering publishing it on Open Research Europe and I would like to know what's the general opinion on this platform. There is no Impact Factor associated to this open access platform, however, they track metrics at an article level to assess the impact of the individual article. They believe that this is a more accurate way of assessing impact of research and I agree with them.

Has anyone here published on ORE? What was your experience? Pros and Cons that I might not have considered?

Thanks in advance!

The choice between open-access and subscription-based publishing models involves weighing the trade-offs between accessibility, sustainability, quality, and the evolving landscape of scholarly communication. Institutions, funders, and researchers must carefully consider their priorities and the broader implications for the scientific publishing ecosystem.

... but allows the link to the article to be shared?

Dear Colleagues,

Peer-review isn't working well, and it needs an overhaul. In the time of artificial intelligence, blockchain, and remote work, it doesn't make sense to wait for months just to receive few lines rejecting an excellent manuscript or accepting a poor one!

Would you spend five minutes to answer a questionnaire on Google forms, and help SCIENEUM.io solve this problem for all of us?

This is it: https://forms.gle/2BskfDeAoeqKf5Wt5

I'm confused as I am always keen to store my research data securely. But then in journals and some funding bids they say they want the datasets as open access...how do I do that practically? Or where do I store it please? Most appreciative of any advice! Thanks

We are preparing to submit a manuscript in field of nociceptor/immunity. However looking at our current budget we realize we won't be able to afford the common $2000 processing fees charged by most open access journals (all our targeting journals). I wonder if there are ways like special searching service that can find suitable free-to-publish journals, either open access or "society" journals?

or can anyone recommend some free-to-publish journals in the field of nociceptor/ion channel/immunity of IF around 3-6?

On the other hand, is there any other possible solution to publish a manuscript with relatively low cost but without compromising the quality of journal too much?

PhD scholars should be particularly cautious about intellectual property (IP) violations and infringements, as their research often involves creating new knowledge or building upon existing ideas. Here are some key areas where they should be careful:

By staying informed about these issues and seeking guidance from mentors, advisors, or legal experts when needed, PhD scholars can navigate the complex landscape of intellectual property rights and avoid potential violations or infringements.

In celebration of the release of the 3rd edition of my book 'Effective Science Communication', IOP publishing is making the 2nd edition FREE via open access until the end of May!

To date the presence of Dark Energy, has remained a mystery. This is solved on the basis of fundamental unit of energy, Planck's constant, from which space-time itself, the forces of nature including gravity, and all particle physics can be derived. This is achieved on the on the basis of the speed of light and classical geometry. In the first instance new research points to a definitive answer to the presence of space time and the value of Hubble's constant. Here we invite open access research and discussion to probe the mysteries and very nature of Dark Energy, and the origins of all the aspects of Nature including the laws of thermodynamics.

I recently published, for the first time, in Fire, an MDPI Journal. I felt the peer review process was weak in comparison to other journals; I essentially had one substantive peer review, and comments from the 2nd reviewer were mediocre at best but did not help improve the article I wrote; yet the editor chose to publish my article anyways - of course, this was a special issue publication.

Having served as a peer-reviewer for Forests and Fire before, I had considerable questions on their timelines and ethics of publishing and feel that the pay-to-publish and short timelines result in questionable peer-review processes, though it is neither universally good nor bad.

Now, Forests is asking me to serve as a guest editor and I admit I feel both flattered and baited into their system. They offer incentives (free publications for myself and people I invite), but I also admit that I feel like this is a bit of a predatory and bait scheme to help them get more articles and more special issues to support their business model.

They also are suggesting that by serving as a guest editor they may invite me to join their editorial board... which has a large number of recognizable and admirable scientists on it, however, I fear my ethics are leading me to think that the great good of science would benefit by not supporting these predatory styles of journals.

I feel conflicted, what are other peoples thoughts on these matters and MDPI?

There is a new open access platform where articles may be submitted as both preprints and final articles. According to their website, preprints are indexed in Europe PMC, but final papers are not listed in PubMed, Scopus, or Web of Science. papers are selected depending on reviewer acceptance. Anyone have any experience with this?

A New Frontiers Journal is to be launched soon: Frontiers in Earth Observation and Land Monitoring (Cf attached Author Guide)

Question about the open access fee and proofreading in English for publishing a monography in Springer (in case if they are not for free).

Dear ResearchGate Community,

I am going to publish an open-access app for wearable and video synchronization in the app store, and I was wondering if any of you had experience on where to publish a accompanying short technical report on the app? I would also like to publish additional (optional) post-processing scripts together with the technical report.

In my opinion, publishing the technical report/letter (probably 2-page long) in an open-access online journal would help to spread the word about the app and make more researchers aware of this technique.

Many thanks in advance,

Christina

Do all open-access remote sensing and geography journals require a publishing charge?

Which journal allowes more than 8000 words? Not open access. Not a high impact factor. Q2 or Q1

What kind of visibility are we talking about here?

I may not be a sheep, but going to bed with a known preditor does not help one to be in the right spotlight.

The Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) has been the subject of debate within the scholarly community for a number of reasons. While it publishes a large number of journals across a range of disciplines, there has been criticism of its peer review process, quality control and potential issues with predatory publishing practices.

Dear all,

I am currently working on data about publications in open access journals.

Most of us have already experienced the answer from an editor about one of his.her submissions, declining it for the intended "major" journal but offering to consider it for the alternative open access journal from the same organisation.

Have anyone already had the chance to follow the opposite pathway? Meaning to have submitted an article to an open access journal from a scientific society and recieving a proposition to be considered for the major journal of the same organisation ?

Thank you for taking the time to share you experience,

Delphine Szecel

Recently one of my Journal paper has been accepted in an Open Access renowned SCIE Journal of Mechanical Engineering. The paper was initially reviewed in a high impact factor subscription type journal and had transferred to this Open Access Journal to which I had granted permission. Now I am in search of some funding who will bear 3000 USD (approx) as it is impossible for me to bear this amount.

What are the steps to obtain funding in an OPEN ACCESS SCIE Journal Paper (Accepted) of Mechanical Engineering?
