Author Guidelines

• The manuscripts may be written in Bahasa Indonesia or English, and it has not been published, nor is it before another journal for consideration.
• The manuscript may contain research results or scientific opinions (critical review) on all aspects of soil and land resources.

Format

The submission has not been published, nor is it before another journal for consideration. The submission file is in Microsoft Word document file format, with Garamond 11 font. The length of a complete manuscript should be no less than 6 pages (11-point font, single-spaced, including figures, tables, and references). All illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points rather than at the end. A template to guide authors in the preparation of the manuscript can be downloaded from https://ibehs.rsmoewardi.com/

Title

The title should be written in Bahasa Indonesia and/or English. The title should be a brief phrase describing the contents of the manuscript. This should include all authors' full names (with no titles or qualifications), institutional addresses (department, institute, city, post/zip code, country), and email addresses. Authors and affiliations must be linked using superscript numerals. The corresponding author should also be indicated. The title should be no more than 15 words in length.

Abstract and Keywords

The abstract should be informative and self-explanatory, briefly present the topic, state the scope of the experiments, indicate significant data, and point out major findings and conclusions. The abstract should be 150 to 250 words in length. Standard nomenclature should be used, and abbreviations should be avoided. While the abstract is conceptually divided into three sections (background, methods/principal findings, and conclusions/significance), do not apply these distinct headings to the abstract within the manuscript. No literature should be cited. Following the abstract, five keywords that will provide indexing references should be listed.

Introduction

The Introduction should provide a clear statement of the problem, the relevant literature on the subject, and the proposed approach or solution. It should be understandable to colleagues from a broad range of scientific disciplines.

Materials and Methods

Experimental procedures should be given in sufficient detail to allow these to be replicated by other researchers. The source of the various reagents and materials used in the study should be given, where possible. Capitalize trade names and include the manufacturer's name and address. Subheadings should be used. Methods, in general use, need not be described in detail.

Results

The results section should provide details of all of the experiments required to support the conclusions of the manuscript. There is no specific word limit for this section, but details of experiments that are peripheral to the main thrust of the manuscript and that detract from the focus of the manuscript should not be included. The results should be written in the past tense when describing findings in the authors' experiments. Previously published findings should be written in the present tense. The section may be divided into subsections, each with a concise subheading. Results should be explained, but largely without referring to the literature. Discussion, speculation, and detailed interpretation of data should not be included in the results but should be put into the Discussion section.

Discussion

This section should present a comprehensive analysis of the results in light of previous research. When appropriate, the authors can combine the Results and the Discussion sections into Results and Discussion.

Conclusions

The conclusion section should highlight the significance of the research, show how it has brought closure to the research problem, and point out remaining gaps in knowledge by suggesting issues for further research.

Acknowledgments

The authors should first acknowledge the funding source (if any) for the research presented in their article, followed by any personal credits. The acknowledgments should be brief.

References

All publications cited in the text should be presented in a list of references following the text of the manuscript.  In the text, the citations should be referred to by the author's name and year of publication enclosed in parentheses, e.g. (Riyanto and Suntari, 2023; Achmad et al., 2022). If a reference is made in the text to a publication written by more than two authors, the first author's name should be used, followed by “et al.” In the list of references, however, the names of all authors should be mentioned.  References cited together in the text should be arranged chronologically. The list of references should be arranged alphabetically according to the author's names and chronologically per author. The authors are suggested to use Reference Management Applications, such as Zotero, Mendeley, and EndNote) to write references for the manuscript.
