What Is DergiPark and How Do You Use It to Find or Submit to Journals Like JIEAS?

Updated

DergiPark is the online platform that hosts the Journal of International Environmental Application and Science (JIEAS). You use it in two main ways: to look up a journal's details before you commit to submitting, and to send a manuscript through the journal's online submission system. If you already know the journal name or its e-ISSN, you can go straight to its DergiPark page; if you are still deciding where to submit, the journal's scope and period are the first things to check.

What DergiPark is in this context

DergiPark is where JIEAS is published online. The journal's own page lists its website as https://dergipark.org.tr/en/pub/jieas, so DergiPark is the access point for the journal rather than a separate publisher.

For JIEAS specifically, the page evidence gives you these facts:

Item Detail
Full title Journal of International Environmental Application and Science
Abbreviated key-title J. Int. Environmental Application & Science
e-ISSN 2636-7661
Start 2006
Period Quarterly
Publisher Şükrü Dursun
Peer review Peer reviewed

So when you land on a DergiPark journal page, treat it as the journal's official home for scope, editorial contacts, and submission.

Finding a journal on DergiPark

You can locate a journal like JIEAS by name or by its e-ISSN. The e-ISSN is the more reliable identifier because journal names can be abbreviated or translated.

  1. Go to the DergiPark site.
  2. Search for the journal title, or enter the e-ISSN 2636-7661.
  3. Open the journal page and confirm the title matches.
  4. Check the "Aim and Scope," "Period," and publisher details before you go further.

If you are comparing candidates, use the same fields for each: scope, period, e-ISSN, and publisher. A quarterly journal with a defined scope will filter out mismatched papers faster than reading submission guidelines first.

Checking scope before you submit

JIEAS states it covers environmental research areas including water pollution, wastewater pollution, air pollution, solid waste management, biotechnology, soil pollution, surface and groundwater, renewable energy, energy management, microbiology, sustainability, waste recovery and transformation, fuzzy logic, and artificial neural networks. It invites original research papers, state-of-the-art reviews, and high-quality technical notes.

Use that list as a fit test. If your paper sits in one of those areas, the scope is a match. If it sits adjacent but not inside them, check the "Aim and Scope" section on the journal page before preparing a submission, because a scope mismatch is the most common reason a paper is returned without review.

Submitting through DergiPark

JIEAS uses an online submission system. The journal page describes it as efficient, easy, and user-friendly, and says it reduces the overall time from submission to publication. The page also notes that online submission and simultaneous peer review help move accepted articles to publication more simply.

The practical steps are:

  1. Open the JIEAS page on DergiPark.
  2. Read the "Guide for Authors" linked on that page — it carries the formatting and file requirements.
  3. Use "MAKE A SUBMISSION" or the online submission system link.
  4. Create or sign in to your author account.
  5. Upload your manuscript and any required files.
  6. Submit and track the manuscript status through the system.

The expected result is that your paper enters peer review, and you follow its progress in the same system. Because the journal publishes online, it notes there are no space constraints, so figures, extensive data, and high-resolution visual material can be included.

What to verify before you rely on the page

Journal pages change. Before submitting, confirm the current e-ISSN, period, and publisher on the live DergiPark page rather than a cached copy, and read the "Ethics and Malpractice Statement" and "About" sections. Those pages carry the editorial and ethics requirements that apply to your submission, and they are the parts most likely to affect whether your paper is accepted for review.
