Мой вольный перевод части текста приведенного ниже
""An author’s central obligation is to present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance.
A submitted manuscript should contain detail and reference to public sources of information sufficient to permit readers to reproduce the work or verify its accuracy.
Correct attribution is essential because it encourages creativity and because it informs the community of when, where, and sometimes how original ideas entered the scientific dialog. Authors should properly cite works by others of the original hypotheses, ideas, and/or data upon which their manuscripts rely and work essential to an understanding of the present work. Except in a review, citation of work that will not be referred to in the manuscript should be minimized. Authors are obligated to perform literature searches to find, and then cite, the original publications that describe closely related work. Plagiarism is never acceptable.
Information obtained by an author privately, from conversation, correspondence, or discussion with third parties, should not be used or reported in the author’s work except with the consent of persons from whom the information was obtained if there are any proprietary questions. Information obtained in the course of providing confidential services, including refereeing manuscripts, shall be treated in the same confidential manner.
Authors should not falsify research data or misreport results, including selective reporting intended to render an interpretation not supported by the totality of the data.
Authors should make no substantive changes to their manuscripts after they have been accepted for publication unless there are compelling reasons and the editor approves the changes.
Authors should organize their publications to minimize fragmentation of their reports on a particular project across multiple publications. The convenience of readers is served if reports on related studies are published in the same journal or a small number of journals.
Authors should not submit for review the same manuscript or similar manuscripts describing essentially the same research or project to more than one journal unless submission is of a manuscript rejected by or withdrawn from another publication.
Prior to submitting their manuscripts, authors should secure permission from owners of any material they include in their manuscripts that originates from a copyrighted source if their use of the material extends beyond fair-use provisions of the law.
Authors should not submit for review previously published work unless distribution was to a small audience not significantly overlapping SEG’s. In such instances, authors should disclose previous publication status to editors at the time of submission and provide copies of the work as previously published. Manuscripts that are in large part copied from previously published work also should not be submitted. However, authors are encouraged to submit enhancements and expansions of their meeting abstracts into more complete scientific expressions suitable for journal or book publication.
Authorship should be limited to those who have made significant technical contributions to the work reported in the manuscript. Author order should be agreed on by all authors, as should any changes in authorship and order that occur while manuscripts are under review or revision. No individual who has made a significant technical contribution to the work reported in the manuscript should be excluded from authorship. Corresponding authors must attest to the fact that any others named as coauthors have seen the final version of the manuscript and have agreed to its submission for publication. No fictitious name should be given as an author or coauthor.
Authors should not submit manuscripts with an obvious commercial intent and shall make every effort to avoid mentioning commercial products or services.
Authors should reveal to editors any potential conflict of interest, e.g., a consulting or financial interest in a company that might be affected by publication of the results reported in a manuscript.
Authors are encouraged to disclose major funding sources for reported research.
Although criticism of the work of others may be justified, authors should refrain from personal criticism or derogatory remarks whether within their work or in correspondence with others about it."
