Authorship Criteria

Authorship should be limited to those who have made a substantial scholarly contribution to the manuscript and who are willing to take public responsibility for its content.

iRASD Journal of Energy & Environment (iRASD-JEE) considers authorship to be based on all of the following criteria:

• substantial contributions to the conception or design of the work; or to the acquisition, analysis, or interpretation of data
• drafting the manuscript or revising it critically for important intellectual content
• final approval of the version to be published
• agreement to be accountable for all aspects of the work and to assist in resolving questions related to the accuracy or integrity of any part of the work

All listed authors should have participated sufficiently in the work to take appropriate responsibility for the content. Each author should be able to identify their own contribution and should have confidence in the integrity of the contributions made by co-authors.

Individuals who contributed to the work but do not meet the criteria for authorship should not be listed as authors, but may be acknowledged appropriately with their permission.
