The African (formerly South African) Journal of Marine Science provides an international forum for the publication of original scientific contributions or critical reviews, involving oceanic, shelf or estuarine waters, inclusive of oceanography, studies of organisms and their habitats, and aquaculture. Papers on the conservation and management of living resources, relevant social science and governance, or new techniques, are all welcomed, as are those that integrate different disciplines. Priority will be given to rigorous, question-driven research, rather than descriptive research. Contributions from African waters, including the Southern Ocean, are particularly encouraged, although not to the exclusion of those from elsewhere that have relevance to the African context. Submissions may take the form of a paper or a short communication. The journal aims to achieve a balanced representation of subject areas but also publishes proceedings of symposia in dedicated issues, as well as guest-edited suites on thematic topics in regular issues.
《非洲（前南非）海洋科学杂志》为发表原创科学论文或评论提供了一个国际论坛，涉及海洋、陆架或河口沃茨，包括海洋学、生物及其生境研究和水产养殖。关于生物资源养护和管理、相关社会科学和治理或新技术的论文都受到欢迎，综合不同学科的论文也受到欢迎。将优先考虑严格的、问题驱动的研究，而不是描述性研究。特别鼓励包括南大洋在内的非洲沃茨作出贡献，但也不排除其他地方与非洲有关的贡献。提交的材料可以采用论文或简短通信的形式。该杂志旨在实现主题领域的平衡代表性，但也在专门的问题上发表专题讨论会的会议记录，以及在定期问题上发表关于专题的客座编辑的成套材料。
