Hybrid journals, whether OA or not, are optional: https://link.springer.com/journal/10346/how-to-publish-with-us?utm_medium=display&utm_source=letpub&utm_content=text_link&utm_term=null&utm_campaign=MPSR_10346_AWA1_CN_CNPL_letpb_mp#Fees%20and%20funding. If you are unsure, you can always inquire with the journal first as some non-OA journals may still require payment of publication fees.

Is there a layout fee for this?

No, it's the type of article. Of course, the word count and graphics are also limited.

Could you please confirm if the submission should be in single column layout or if it needs to be changed to a double column format?

Excuse me, are you referring to recent landslides?

(0) 讚！ | licks

May I ask if you have any updates now? I submitted a report on recent landslides two months ago and have not heard anything yet.

I would also like to ask about Editor Declined Invitation.

(0) 讚！ | 土木王同学

Submitted for six months, received feedback, revised for two months, rejected. The reason: one reviewer accepted, one rejected. Encouraged to resubmit after revisions, but resubmission was directly rejected without review. The reviewer who rejected the submission was arrogant, as if he were the truth itself, very cocky.

I would like to ask, how long does the external audit typically take?

May I ask how long it usually takes for "Under Initial Review"?

The external review status moved slightly, possibly indicating that a reviewer has returned with comments. The editor clicked in to take a look, or it could be that there has been no communication from the external review, so the editor resubmitted it for review.

Hello everyone, it's been three months since the external audit started, but we still haven't received any results. The status of the external audit changed midway, does this mean it has been transferred to another reviewer?

Hello, how long have you been in this state?

I would like to ask if the status "Editor Declined Invitation" means that the invitation has been rejected now.

How long does the initial review typically take? Should we continue to wait or modify based on the citation check results? No email was sent to the author and corresponding author when submitting. Is it correct that we can only see the status by logging into the system?

I will send emails to everyone as the corresponding author (name, but not their email address), and only the corresponding author will be able to see the status of the article in the system.

May I ask if all authors will receive an email notification once the submission is delivered?
