# Environmental Pollution (environmental-pollution)

## Journal positioning

Environmental Pollution is the Elsevier journal for environmental contamination and its
effects — the sources, fate, transport, and ecological and health impacts of pollutants
across air, water, soil, and biota, including emerging contaminants, microplastics, metals,
and persistent organics. Its defining expectation is **rigorous evidence of pollutant impact,
not mere detection**: a study that quantifies a contaminant with sound measurement and
controls and connects it to fate, transport, exposure, or an ecological/health effect. A
"we detected X in Y" survey with no impact, mechanism, or fate insight — and no
quantification beyond presence — is a weak fit. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection /
re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current author guidelines. Before
submitting, re-check the live Environmental Pollution submission guidance.
