Scope
Aquatic Physiology publishes major findings in every aspect of the physiology of animals that inhabit the aquatic ecosystem: from marine to freshwater habitats, from single-celled organisms to mammals, and from functional genomics to functional morphology. Life originated in an aqueous environment, and extant aquatic species face special challenges due to the physics and chemistry of water. Such functions as ion and volume regulation, movement and migration, gas exchange and cardiovascular function, acid-base regulation, feeding and digestion, waste excretion, thermoregulation, sensory perception and reproduction are dictated by the constraints of salinity, viscosity, gas solubility, pressure,availability of ionic species, water currents, ambient light and sound, seasonal dehydration and thermal changes, and pollution. We encourage submission of manuscripts in these and other areas of interest in the physiology of aquatic animals.Indexed in: PubMed, PubMed Central, Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, DOAJ, CrossRef, Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), EMBASE, Semantic Scholar, Ulrich's Periodicals Directory, Science Citation Index Expanded, CLOCKSS, EBSCO, OpenAIRE, Zetoc
PMCID: all published articles receive a PMCID
Aquatic Physiology welcomes submissions of the following article types: Brief Research Report, Correction, Data Report, Editorial, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Policy and Practice Reviews, Policy Brief, Protocols, Review, Specialty Grand Challenge, Systematic Review and Technology Report.
All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Aquatic Physiology, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
Articles published in the section Aquatic Physiology 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 Physiology and Marine Science.
