Unasylva manuscript style

Unasylva an international journal of forestry and forest industries, is published quarterly in English, French and Spanish editions.

Language and writing style

Manuscripts are accepted in English, French or Spanish. Well-organized and clearly written manuscripts not only help to communicate ideas and information to the reader, but they facilitate editing and translation.

Manuscript preparation

Manuscripts should be in duplicate, typewritten double-spaced on one side of the page only and with wide margins. About 250 words to a page will simplify word-count estimates. It should be possible for us to make clean, easily read photocopies from any manuscript, therefore please use a new typewriter ribbon. The first page should have in the upper right-hand corner the author's name and address, the date and the number of words in the main text, not including words in tables, figures, captions or titles. Subsequent pages should have only the author's name in the right-hand corner.

Metric system

All measurements shoulds be in the metric system.

Tables, figures, drawings

Tables, figures and drawings of any kind should each be on a separate page and numbered to correspond to their points of reference in the text. They should never be pasted into the body of the text. They should be as clear and simple as possible. Only essential tables and figures should be included and all should be identified as to source

Photographs

Unasylva uses black-and-white photographs. We prefer good quality black-and-white prints 18 × 24 cm (8 × 10 in) on glossy paper. If a diapositive colour-slide is of high quality we may be able to make a copy negative from it and a good quality black-and-white photograph, but we prefer not to have them. We will make every effort to return colour slides and black-and-white negatives but we cannot guarantee return. Black-and-white prints are not returned.

Footnotes and references

Footnotes and references should be listed on separate sheets at the end of the manuscript. Footnotes should be kept to an absolute minimum and we prefer none. References should be strictly relevant to the article and should also be kept to a minimum. For style of references please see examples in the magazine.

Lenght

Long articles are 3000 to 4000 words, and short articles are 750 to 2000 words.

Republished articles

Unasylva prefers original articles but does not rule out reprints, especially where there is the possibility of exchanging views and developments of basic importance in forestry and forest industries between readers in developed and developing regions of the world or where language considerations are involved.

Queries in advance

We welcome letters from writers suggesting ideas and subject matter for proposed articles. They usually result in articles of a higher quality and in a saving in writing and editing time.

Who are the readers?

Unasylva subscribers in some 135 countries fall into the following broad categories:

- Government officials, in particular the executive level of national forest services, wildlife departments and national park. This also includes delegates and missions attached to the United Nations and its specialized agencies and staff members of international organizations dealing with forestry, environment, forest industries and trade.
