Use when targeting Limnology and Oceanography or deciding whether an aquatic-sciences manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the aquatic-process-insight bar, biogeochemical and plankton/microbial evidence expectations, ASLO house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# Limnology and Oceanography (limnology-and-oceanography) ## Journal positioning Limnology and Oceanography is the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO) flagship for the aquatic sciences, spanning freshwater (lakes, rivers, wetlands) and marine (coastal and open-ocean) systems within a single community. Its scope covers aquatic ecology, biogeochemistry, plankton and microbial processes, and the physical–biological and physical–chemical coupling that links them. Its defining expectation is **rigorous aquatic-science evidence that delivers process insight** — an advance in understanding how aquatic organisms, chemistry, and physics interact, not a descriptive survey or a single-system observation without mechanism. A terrestrial study, or a purely physical-oceanography paper with no biological or biogeochemical coupling (better suited to a geophysics venue), is a poor fit however competent. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current author guidance. Before submitting, re-check the live Limnology and Oceanography author instructions and data policy. ## When to trigger - The author names Limnology a

What does the limnology-and-oceanography skill do?
Use when targeting Limnology and Oceanography or deciding whether an aquatic-sciences manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the aquatic-process-insight bar, biogeochemical and plankton/microbial evidence expectations, ASLO house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill limnology-and-oceanography --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 984 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
