The peer-reviewed journal publishes original and new results on environmental and ecological science with applications to the sustainable complex ecosystem management. The aim of the journal is to provide a place for a rapid exchange of new ideas and concepts for scientists and engineers in environments and ecology with management. Manuscripts in environmental accounting and managements are solicited, including mathematical modeling, and computational and management techniques in environmental, ecological, energy and information science, technology and engineering, such as agricultural, urban, coastal, riparian, wetland ecosystems. Topics of interest in ecosystems include but not limited to  Accounting in environmental economics, ecosystem service evaluation, energy and resource, social factors and management.  Modeling in environmental conservation and restoration, eco-hydrology and water resources management, ecological process and pattern, climate change effects, environmental engineering and technology.  Planning and management in human dimension-institutions and patterns for socio-economic systems, ecological informatics for ecosystems, landscape design, and urban planning  Environmental policy, legislation, and innovations with environmental and strategic impact assessment, project appraisal and auditing, and environmental protection.  No length limitations for contributions are set, but only concisely written manuscripts are published. Brief papers are published on the basis of Technical Notes. Discussions of previous published papers are welcome.

Discussions of previous published papers are welcome. Peer ReviewJournal of Environmental Accounting and Management adopts the traditional blind-review policy in which the reviewers' names are concealed for submission author(s) for free submission. Each submitted manuscript is reviewed at least two referees in appropriate fields. In addition, the editorial board members' recommendation or established experts' recommendation publication are welcome.

The complex formation between the uranyl (UO2 2+) ion and the diethylene triaminopentaacetate ligand (DTPA) has been investigated at 25 °C, in a 3 M sodium perchlorate medium. The overall protonation constants β j H of the free ligand have been previously determined in this ionic medium: six protonated species (H j A), with j ranging from 1 to 6, together with the free anion A5− have been identified in the concentration range from (3·10−3 to 13·10−3) mol·kg−1. Four complex species, H2UO2A−, HUO2A2−, UO2A3−, and UO2AOH4−, have been identified in the total uranyl concentration range from (1.1·10−3 to 5.7·10−3) mol·kg−1, and their overall stability constants determined, keeping the metal to ligand ratio equal to 1. Owing to the complex species formation, uranyl ions could be kept in solution until −log h = 7.
