Flipping through field notebooks…
An author’s response to referees’ comments is a key component of the peer review process that affects whether a manuscript is accepted or rejected, the speed at which a manuscript moves through the review process, the workload of editors and referees, and the quality and clarity of published science. However, guidance on how to write a response to manuscript reviews is lacking from the instructions for authors of most journals and from science writing manuals. I offer some recommendations for authors, referees, and journals that can be implemented easily to improve the response to reviews and, thereby, enhance the publishing and reviewing process for authors, referees, and editors.
