Aims and scope

Contemporary Problems of Ecology is a peer-reviewed multidisciplinary periodical that publishes original works on the following subjects: theoretical and methodical issues of ecology, regional aspects of ecology, regional ecological disasters, structure and functioning of ecosystems, and anthropogenic transformation of ecosystems. The journal encompasses all basic aspects of modern ecology, including the most complicated interactions between living organisms and their environment. The journal also features articles dedicated to global changes in biodiversity at various levels of organization, including populations, species, and ecosystems, as well as principles and methods of nature conservation. Contemporary Problems of Ecology also publishes English translations of selected articles from other journals and original unsolicited articles in the English language. The source of each article is described at the article level on the title pages. The final decision about the publication is made by its editorial board regardless of the source. The editorial and peer review policies are the same for all translated and original articles. As part of its aim to become an international publication, the journal welcomes submissions in English from all countries.
