ICES Journal of Marine Science

IJMS

ICES Journal of Marine Science (IJMS) publishes articles that contribute to our understanding of marine ecosystems and the impact of human activities on them.

Editor-in-Chief: Howard I. Browman

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ICES Journal of Marine Science also serves as a foundation for scientific advice across the broad spectrum of management and conservation issues related to the marine environment. ​

Oceanography, marine habitats, living resources, and related topics constitute the key elements of papers considered for publication. These include economic, social, and public administration studies that are directly related to management of the seas and are of general interest to marine scientists. Integrated studies that bridge gaps between traditional disciplines are particularly welcome.

IJMS publishes Original articles, Comment articles, Review articles, Food for thought articles (short articles on topical issues, often provocative or innovative in nature, solicited or offered to stimulate dialogue, research, and ideas generally), Quo Vadimus articles (describing the future landscape/potential of a topic, issue, discipline or technology), and Stories from the Front Lines (substantive accounts of challenges, wins and losses on any aspect of ocean and coastal sustainability).​

Papers identified as being of particular interest are promoted as Editor's Choice​ ​and are freely accesible on the journals website.
