Open Access Policy

This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge.

License and Copyright Agreement

Copyright

Copyright on any article is retained by the author(s). Authors grant RSEA a license to publish the article and  commercial rights. Also, the authors grant any third party the right to use the article freely as long as its original authors and citation details are identified. 

The article and any associated published material is distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY 4.0)

Copyright Transfers

Any usage rights are regulated through the Creative Commons License. As RSEA is using the Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY 4.0), anyone (the author, institution/publisher, as well as the public) is free to copy, distribute, transmit, and adapt the work as long as the original author is credited. 

Policy on Data Archiving

RSEA encourage authors to have the data supporting the results in the paper archived in an appropriate public archive, such as GenBank, Morphobank, FigShare, TreeBASE, Dryad, the Knowledge Network for Biocomplexity or other suitable long-term and stable public repositories, (not a laboratory homepage) and clearly state in their manuscript where their data are deposited. Data is an important product of the scientific enterprise and must be preserved and usable for decades in the future. Authors may elect to have the data publicly available at time of publication, or, if the technology of the archive allows, may opt to embargo access to the data for a period of up to one year after publication. Exceptions may be granted at the discretion of the editor, especially for sensitive information such as the location of endangered species.
