主编更换，主题不符，文章被拒
背景情况：主题不符，被拒。其实也不是不符，只是主编换了，方向自然有所变化，都是某一领域的话题，在前一个主编时发表了，现在这个却拒了，杂志的方向与主编兴趣关系很密切，看来。Cover letter: Cover Letter to Editor in Chief, Professor ***: Dear Prof. ***, Knowledge about mechanisms underlying the variation in ***with ***is still limited. This is a major challenge to take into account the ****. Enclosed, please find our paper that reports new findings from our observed data of ****. We found that tree ******. My co-authors and I believe that the findings would have great implications for ******. We hope you find the enclosed manuscript acceptable, and look forward to hearing from you. Thanks. 投稿第二天就收到老外收到稿件的email,此处不在详述。老外拒稿（投稿11天后） Dear Dr. ***, Your manuscript **** has now been examined by two members of the editorial board of ***. I regret to inform you that the paper is inappropriate in scope for the journal. *** is attempting to concentrate on macroecological studies or work of broad geographic, taxonomic, or temporal coverage. We favour studies that test general ecological hypotheses, and that apply as globally as possible. This decision does not suggest that your study is uninteresting or that it should not be published; rather, the editors felt that this particular study would probably be more appropriate for a more specialized journal. I am very sorry that we could not be more positive on this occasion but hope that we can look forward to other contributions from you in the future. Yours sincerely, ***
