《硅藻研究》是國際硅藻研究學會的期刊。該雜志每季出版一次，在3月、6月、9月和12月出版，歡迎有關硅藻生物學任何方面的手稿。除了長篇論文外，還出版了不需要包含長篇論文所需全部章節的近期文獻的簡短注釋和評論;我們認為這些是必要的，以記錄感興趣的信息，但不能進行詳細的跟蹤。鼓勵發表散漫的“觀點”論文，但不一定要遵循正常的布局。如需提供篇幅極長的論文，作者應先與編輯聯系，討論任何問題。可以出版書評、訃告和會議報告。所有論文將根據其內容接受編輯和審稿人的嚴格審查。論文只接受英文版本。

Diatom Research is the journal of the International Society for Diatom Research. The journal is published quarterly, in March, June, September and December, and welcomes manuscripts on any aspect of diatom biology. In addition to full-length papers, short notes and reviews of recent literature are published which need not contain all the sections required for full-length papers; we see these as being necessary to record information which is of interest but which cannot be followed up in detail. Discursive “Opinion” papers are encouraged which would not necessarily follow the normal lay-out. If extremely long papers are to be offered, the author(s) should contact the editors first to discuss any problems. Book reviews, obituaries and meeting reports can be published. All papers will be subject to critical review by the editors and referees, as appropriate to their content. Papers will be accepted in English only.
