Abstract Soil is a fundamental resource in the agricultural production system and monitoring its fertility is an important objective in the sustainable development of agro-ecosystems. In order to evaluate soil fertility, changes in its physical, chemical and biological properties must be taken into account. Among the biological features, soil enzymes are often used as index of soil fertility since they are very sensitive and respond to changes in soil management more quickly than other soil variables. Thus, the objective of this work was to review some of the aspects that are connected with using soil enzymes as indicators of agricultural practices impact (e.g., soil fertilization, crop rotation, tillage) and soil fertility. The results that are discussed in the works listed in the bibliography showed no consistent trends in enzymatic activity as being dependent on farming management practices that have stimulated, decreased or not affected this activity. The inﬂuence of inorganic fertilization and organic amendments on the soil enzyme activities depended on the dose of this amendment, the time of its application, the content of harmful substances (e.g., heavy metals), the soil type and climatic conditions.

Scholarly Open Access
10/4/13 LIST OF PUBLISHERS | Scholarly Open Access Scholarly Open Access Critical analysis of scholarly open-access publishing LIST OF PUBLISHERS Beall’s List: Potential, possible, or probable predatory scholarly open- access publishers This is a list of questionable, scholarly open-access publishers. We recommend that scholars read the available reviews, assessments and descriptions provided here, and then decide for themselves whether they want to submit articles, serve as editors or on editorial boards. The criteria for determining predatory publishers are here (http://wp.me/p280Ch-g5). We hope that tenure and promotion committees can also decide for themselves how importantly or not to rate articles published in these journals in the context of their own institutional standards and/or geocultural locus. We emphasize that journal publishers and journals change in their business and editorial practices over time. This list is kept up-to-date to the best extent possible but may not reflect sudden, unreported, or unknown enhancements. o Abhinav (http://www.abhinavjournal.com/index.aspx) o A M Publishers (http://ampublisher.com/index.html) o Academe Research Journals (http://www.academeresearchjournals.org) o Academia Publishing (http://academiapublishing.org/index.htm) o Academic and Business Research Institute (http://www.aabri.com/) o Academic and Scientific Publishing (http://acascipub.com/) o Academic Journals (http://www.academicjournals.org/) o Academic Journals and Research ACJAR (http://www.acjar.org/index.html) o Academic Journals,

OMICSOMICS JournalsJournals In today’s world which signifies a global village, scientific researchers and practitioners need to share and disseminate information regularly, a belief that OMICS Publishing Group strongly holds, thereby forming the proposition for its journals and publications. OMICS Publishing Group operates in tune with the need for open access that is being constantly felt with passage of time by funding bodies and the associated research institutions alike. The Finch Report, developed by a committee chaired by Dame Janet Finch in Great Britain was accepted by the government in mid of 2012. The findings suggest strong need to enable more people to read and use the publications, particularly those featuring publicly funded research. OMICS Publishing Group provides for easy sharing of knowledge and seeks to provide Open Access to scientific research papers and articles. OMICS Publishing Group publishes several scientific journals featuring knowledge-sharing articles that discuss latest advancements in the field of scientific research.

Guide to Predatory Publishing
Guide to Predatory Publishing Produced by the Open Access Working Group of the Leibniz Association, October 2018. As the publication market has changed, the number of journals has increased significantly. In some fields, there are so many publications that it is difficult to keep track of them all. They include some journals that do not feel obliged to comply with the rules of good scientific practice,1 and instead use the academic publishing market purely as a business model for the publishers. These publications, which are usually referred to as “predatory journals”, charge authors publication fees or article processing charges (APCs), but do not organise peer reviews or other appropriate forms of quality control. The publication of research findings in such journals primarily harms the authors involved, but also weakens public confidence in scientific research.2 In the following, we describe the phenomenon of predatory publishing in greater detail and present the necessary safeguards. What is the difference between predatory journals and serious journals? One of the main differences between predatory journals and serious scientific journals is that predatory journals largely do without editorial or quality control measures. In addition, one or more of the following will typically apply: • Predatory journals do not provide transparent costing – it is often unclear from the journal’s online presence or website what costs will be incurred and what they relate to. • Predatory journals list misleading or false information about indicators, especially impact factors. • Predatory journals offer very fast publication of manuscripts they receive, which is incompatible with the length of time usually required to carry out a serious review process.

AN EXHIBITION ON NEGLIGENCE, FRAUD, AND MEASURING INTEGRITY Edited by Dr. Thorsten Stephan Beck, Melanie Rügenhagen and Prof. Dr. Michael Seadle HEADT Centre Publications goal of the exhibition The goal of this exhibition is to increase awareness about research integrity. The exhibition highlights areas where both human errors and intentional manipulation have resulted in the loss of positions and damage to careers. Students, doctoral students, and early career scholars especially need to recognize the risks, but senior scholars can also be caught and sometimes are caught for actions decades earlier. There is no statute of limitations for breaches of good scholarly practice. This exhibition serves as a learning tool. It was designed in part by students in a project seminar offered in the joint master’s programme on Digital Curation between Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and King’s College London. The exhibition has four parts. One has to do with image manipulation and falsification, ranging from art works to tests used in medical studies. Another focuses on research data, including human errors, bad choices, and complete fabrication. A third is concerned with text-based information, and discusses plagiarism as well as fake journals and censorship.

Beall's List of "Predatory" Publishers and Journals No Longer Available
Beall's list of "predatory" publishers and journals no longer available http://www.editage.com/insights/print/2039 Published on Editage Insights (http://www.editage.com/insights) Home > Beall's list of "predatory" publishers and journals no longer available Scholarly Open Access [1], a popular blog that listed questionable journals and publishers, has recently been taken down. The blog was maintained since 2008 by Jeffrey Beall [2] who is an academic librarian at the University of Colorado in Denver. Incidentally, his faculty page [3] too is no longer available. While the exact reasons behind this decision remain unclear, according to a UC Denver spokesperson, it was Beall’s personal decision to take this step and added that, “Professor Beall remains on the faculty at the university and will be pursuing new areas of research [4].” Lacey Earle, Vice President of Business Development at Cabell’s International, tweeted [5] that “threats & politics” forced Beall to shut down the site. Beall’s blog that listed more than 1000 “potential, possible or probable predatory scholarly open-access publishers [6]” now stands blank, and it is not known whether this closure is permanent. While his efforts at exposing fraudulent publishers were applauded by many academics, his list – popularly known as “Beall’s list” – had been a source of controversy as some open access advocates believed that he was negative toward the model. He also received ﬂak from some publishers and journals that objected to being included in his list. One such publisher is OMICS Publishing Group that threatened to sue Beall [7] with a $1 billion lawsuit for defaming the company.
