Agent skill stack for manuscripts targeted at Global Environmental Change (GEC) — the leading international journal on the human and policy dimensions of global environmental change, published by Elsevier (ISSN 0959-3780) and submitted via Editorial Manager under double-blind peer review. GEC is interdisciplinary and social-science-leading: it publishes theoretically and empirically rigorous work on the social drivers and consequences of environmental change and on the governance, policy, and behavioral processes that address it — across climate adaptation, vulnerability, environmental governance, socio-ecological systems, sustainability transitions, food and water systems, land use, oceans and coasts, and urban change. Facts covered include the human-and-policy-dimensions scope, the requirement of a significant social-science component, Research Articles up to ~8,000 words, an abstract up to ~250 words, 3-5 Highlights of ~85 characters each, the Elsevier research-data / Data Availability Statement policy, and methodological pluralism spanning quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods. Covers interdisciplinary topic fit, cross-literature positioning, conceptual-framework building, research design across methods, analysis norms, exhibits, policy-relevant academic writing, real-world and policy implications, the review process, submission preflight, and revision and rebuttal. Bilingual en / zh-CN docs.
