Aims & Scope
Brief Background CERNE is a journal edited by the Federal University of Lavras (UFLA) which publishes original articles and reviews that represent relevant contributions to Forest Science development (Forest Ecology, Forest Management, Silviculture, and Technology of Forest Products). Since its start in 1994, the journal has promoted forest science globally by disseminating researchers' and scientists' findings and knowledge from all regions worldwide. Its abbreviated title is CERNE, which should be used in bibliographies, footnotes, and bibliographical references and strips. The manuscripts are submitted electronically by Cerne's online submission system . Open Science Compliance CERNE follows a series of open science practices. The journal is published under the Open Access model and therefore, articles are free for anyone to read, download, copy, and disseminate for educational purposes. CERNE accepts manuscripts deposited on known preprint servers for evaluation. The Journal requires citation, referencing, and declaration of research data; and promotes peer review. The journal also requires an indication of the role of each of the authors in articles with multiple authorships. Upon previous acceptance by the reviewer and author(s), the content of the reviewer's suggestions might be open for access. All articles are assigned to a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) and all authors must be registered with an Open Researcher and Contributor Identifier (ORCID) number. Finally, the names of the editors responsible will be published in each article. Ethics in Publication The journal complies with the SciELO Guidelines Practices for Strengthening Ethics in Scientific Publication as well as the ethical principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) . The manuscript that involves experimentation with living animals, genetically modified organisms, human beings, or LGPD-sensitive data must provide evidence that it was performed under local ethical guidelines.
