小木虫(金币+1):奖励一下，鼓励发有价值的话题

最近看有虫虫把一年前的贴子“地学口的朋友，有投过《Journal of Hydrology》的么”又续上讨论了（/bbs/viewthread. ... ghlight=&page=1），其实我本不打算再更新了，但确实又想再留下些什么，无奈原贴主文已无法进行编辑，所以另开一篇，算是我这篇稿件冲击JH的一个过程说明吧，希望能对地学口或是想投JH 期刊的虫虫有所帮助！

虽不是学水文学出身，但垂涎Journal of Hydrology期刊由来已久。电脑里Endnote中也是JH的期刊文献最多（因为平时读的最多）。这已经是我第二篇稿件冲击JH了，可惜还是失败，之前篇投JH被拒的稿件改投IF=1。3的期刊，目前正小修中。

言归正传吧

Reviewer #1: Comments on paper by ***. submitted to Journal of Hydrology

This paper addressed **** by analyzing ****. Generally, it is a kind of conventional research. Actually, overwhelmingly

Besides, to my best knowledge, there are some studies addressing *****. Repeated studies of similar topics are not attractive and impressive. There are other similar studies and I can not list them all here. The authors should thoroughly review and discuss the previous studies, addressing the novelty of the current study when compared to the previous ones. I think the publication of the study in the Journal of Hydrology requires novelty of the study or the knowledge contribution of the study to the hydrology. However, the current study can not satisfy these requirements. Therefore, I recommend rejection of this paper.

不死心，在原稿的基础上，进行了大幅修改（其实基本相当于重写了，监测数据增加四倍…），重投，重写完后自己经感觉相当良好，由于是在原稿基础上进行的修改，我甚至在cover letter中和editor说“we also prefer to suggest the same reviewers (reviewers for No.我被拒的那篇稿号), we are confident that they will be satisfied for the new manuscript.”。当时，感觉真的是太良好了（自大的觉的：这稿子怎么可能会拒？），于是，开始了新一轮流程

Reviewer #1:

Gnearnal comment: A good paper should be the one: 1) being devoted to address an important scientific problem; 2) developing a novel method; or 3) focusing improvement of an existing method. It is also acceptable to answer a problem by using existing methods. However, I can not find the strong motivations that can justify the current study after finish reading the "Introduction" section. Besides, the objectives of this study are not impressive or attractive yet.
