Scope
Intensified use of agrochemicals and exploitation of natural resources have led to degradation of ecosystems and disruption of ecosystem services the world over. The specialty section will contribute to our knowledge-base of agroecology and thereby promoting sustainable management of agroecosystems.
Scope
The specialty section of Agroecology and Ecosystem Services provides a forum for rapid publication of cutting-edge peer-reviewed research.
Intensified use of agrochemicals and unsustainable exploitation of natural resources to promote food and wood production have led to the degradation of ecosystems and the disruption of ecosystem services globally. The application of sound principles of agroecology is crucial in addressing these issues and enhancing ecosystems services such as soil conservation and fertility improvement, climate change mitigation, water quality enhancement, and biodiversity conservation.
The specialty section welcomes experimental, methodological, and theoretical contributions to push the frontiers of knowledge that cut across the various disciplines within the field of agroecology, and to design innovative approaches to address the formidable challenges that are fundamental to sustainable management of our land.
We welcome original research papers, critical reviews, policy-related articles linked to ecosystem services, thought-provoking ideas, and insightful case studies into various branches of agroecology. The specialty section will thus contribute to expanding our knowledge-base, thereby promoting sustainable management of agroecosystems.

PMCID: coming soon for all published articles
Agroecology welcomes submissions of the following article types: Brief Research Report, Correction, Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Policy and Practice Reviews, Policy Brief, Review, Systematic Review and Technology and Code.
All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Agroecology, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
Articles published in the section Agroecology will benefit from the Frontiers impact and tiering system after online publication. Authors of published original research with the highest impact, as judged democratically by the readers, will be invited by the Chief Editor to write a Frontiers Focused Review - a tier-climbing article. This is referred to as "democratic tiering". The author selection is based on article impact analytics of original research published in all Frontiers specialty journals and sections. Focused Reviews are centered on the original discovery, place it into a broader context, and aim to address the wider community across all of Ecology and Evolution.
