global-change-biology
Use when targeting Global Change Biology or deciding whether a biology/ecology manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the global-change-driver framing and biological-evidence bar, scale and mechanism expectations, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# Global Change Biology (global-change-biology)
## Journal positioning
Global Change Biology is the Wiley journal for the biological and ecological responses of
the living world to global change — climate warming, elevated CO2, altered precipitation,
nitrogen deposition, land-use and land-cover change, and their interactions. Its defining
expectation is a **clear global-change driver coupled to rigorous biological evidence**:
a study that links an explicit global-change forcing to a biological or ecological response,
with mechanism or consequence resolved from the molecular to the ecosystem scale. A local
ecology, physiology, or biogeochemistry study with no global-change driver or framing is a
weak fit, however well executed. 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 Global Change Biology submission guidance.
