Publishing plan of the risk research group, KTL (YTOS)

Publishing plan of the risk research group presents the current plan of articles that are under preparation in the risk research group, Department of Environmental Health, KTL, Finland. The actual published articles are on the page Publications of the risk research group, KTL (YTOS).

Purpose

The purpose of the publishing process is to

• publish new scientific information in the form of peer-reviewed scientific articles
• publish new scientific information also in non-peer reviewed and popular media
• make the information produced in the group as widely available as possible
• target the information production into areas that maximally benefit societal decision-making in terms of public health
• increase the scientific merits of the researchers involved.

Structure of the process

Input format

The publications are produced in the following categories:

1. Scientific, peer-reviewed publications
   1. in international scientific journals (in English)
   2. in international scientific journals (in other languages)
   3. in international proceedings
   4. in Finnish scientific journals or proceedings
2. Scientific, non-peer-reviewed publications
   1. meeting abstracts, posters, and oral presentations
   2. books, book chapters, reports, and monographs
   3. doctoral and other thesis
   4. other
3. Non-scientific publications
   1. books
   2. articles in non-scientific journals
   3. audiovisual products (own products)
   4. interviews or news in newspapers or other media
