References
References should appear within
the text as the author name(s)
followed by the year of
publication in parentheses. A list of all
references must be given at the
end of the text in alphabetical
order by last name of first
author. Make sure the reference
information is complete and
accurate, including as necessary
and in the following order: last
names and initials of all authors;
year of publication; title of
paper, report or book chapter (in
quotes); title of book or
periodical (in italic); volume and issue
numbers; name and location of
publisher (for books), name and
location of publisher or sponsor
for proceedings), or city of
publication (for non-U.S.
journals); and inclusive page numbers.

All illustrations must be
suitable for reproduction (which may
include reduction) without
further modifications. Photographs,
charts and diagrams are all to
be referred to as “Figure(s)" and
must be numbered consecutively
in the order to which they are
referred. They can be integrated
into the text, in final size, if
possible. Alternatively, they
can be grouped together at the end
of the manuscript.
Line drawings: All
lettering, graph lines and points on graphs
should be sufficiently large and
bold to permit reproduction when
the diagram has been reduced to
a size suitable for inclusion in the
journal. It is recommended to
use a sans-serif font, at a 12 pt. size
to ensure clarity when
reproduced.
Tables: Tables must be
numbered consecutively and given a
suitable caption and can also be
integrated into the text with a
suitable size, if possible.
Footnotes should be typed below the
table and referred to by
superscript lowercase letters. No vertical
rules should be used.
Further information
Proofs will be sent to the
author (first named author if no
corresponding author is identified
of multi-authored papers) and
should be corrected and returned
without delay. The preferred
method of the return of
corrections is by e-mail. Corrections
should be restricted to
typesetting errors; any others may be
charged to the author.
