In accordance with this commitment, we monitor our publication process, proactively examining articles at every stage, and are currently conducting detailed investigations into select published papers.

最近爱思唯尔的研究诚信和出版伦理团队对《总环境科学》已发表的文章进行了审核，揭露了有关我们行为与政策不符合的问题，例如异常的作者变更、妥协或被操作的同行评审、未披露的利益冲突以及不当的词汇表达。在此过程中受到影响的作者正在被通知，并且将有机会对这些指控作出回应。这项调查正在进行，并且在未来的几个月我们将致力于以及时、负责任和透明的方式纠正科学记录。

A recent audit of published articles in Science of the Total Environment conducted by Elsevier’s Research Integrity & Publishing Ethics team uncovered concerns regarding practices that do not align with our policies, such as unusual authorship changes, compromised or manipulated peer review, undisclosed conflicts of interest, and tortured phrases. Impacted authors are in the process of being notified and will be given an opportunity to respond to allegations. Investigations are ongoing and over the forthcoming months we are dedicated to correcting the scientific record in a timely, responsible and transparent manner.

我们正在改进期刊的工作流程，以防止在新投稿的论文中出现利益冲突和其他伦理问题。与此同时，我们正在与Clarivate合作，帮助其重新评估本期刊在Web of Science中的状态。您的持续信任与支持对我们来说至关重要，帮助我们努力保持《总环境科学》期刊所发表的所有工作的完整性。
