  • Submissions in Portuguese, Spanish, and English are accepted. For Portuguese and Spanish submissions, translation into English is mandatory after revision and final acceptance by the Journal, ensuring bilingual publication in accordance with RBGeomorfologia's quality standards. The manuscript will only be published after the presentation of the English text. Submissions originally in English are exempt from the translation requirement. Upon acceptance by the editors, authors must provide a translation certificate before the final publication of the manuscript. Alternatively, authors may submit a letter or declaration indicating "proficiency in the English language." However, the editors may still request revisions before the final publication.
