MEPS is a leading ecological journal publishing research on all aspects of marine, coastal and estuarine ecology. MEPS coverage includes the whole spectrum of species, habitats, biological organisation (cells to ecosystems) and research (fundamental and applied). Priority is given to outstanding research that advances our ecological understanding.
MEPS is a transformative hybrid journal. See Transformative Journals in the "For Authors" section.

Early volumes (more than five years since publication) are freely accessible to all users. They are listed according to the subscription year to which they belonged.
In-press articles are listed online shortly after acceptance. Prepress abstracts are also made available. These have not yet been fully checked and copyedited and are therefore subject to change before actual publication. The article is however citable as "in press", using the DOI.
