The Journal of Mountain Research (JMR) requires authors, reviewers, and editors to disclose any financial, personal, professional, or institutional relationships that may influence the objectivity and integrity of the publication process.
Authors must disclose all potential conflicts of interest at the time of manuscript submission. Any relationship, funding source, affiliation, or personal interest that could influence the research findings or interpretation must be clearly stated.
Authors should disclose financial support, grants, sponsorships, employment, consultancy, or other financial relationships that may be perceived to influence the research.
Editors and reviewers must declare any conflict of interest that may affect their ability to evaluate a manuscript objectively. Individuals with conflicts should not participate in the review or decision-making process.
A conflict of interest statement will be included in published articles whenever applicable. If no conflict exists, authors may state that there are no competing interests.
JMR follows the principles and best practice recommendations of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) to ensure transparency, fairness, and integrity throughout the publication process.
