Guidelines for Contributions to the CHNT Proceedings

Dear contributor,

we are happy that you are willing to publish your work in the CHNT conference proceedings. We kindly ask you to follow these guidelines strictly to ensure a smooth and quick review and publication process.

Length of abstracts and papers

The length of the short paper is between 5.000 to 10.000 characters (not including captions and references); at least one illustration is required. Papers must have a length of 4 to 10 pages or 10.000 to 25.000 characters. The number of figures is limited to 3 in the case of short papers and 10 for full papers. Every paper must have an abstract of between 200 and 300 words.

Language

Papers and short papers must be written either in British or American English (the spelling should not be mixed). If your native language is not English, please ask a native English-speaking colleague to proofread your text. Papers and short papers must not be written in first person (“the survey project has been planned” instead of “we planned the survey project”) or active voice.

Abbreviations, units, and numbers

Use standard abbreviations for metric units (km, kg, m, etc.) without final full stops. Square metres should be expressed as m². Please define non-trivial abbreviations and acronyms the first time they are used in the text.

Whenever a number occurs, make sure the number is separated with a protected space to prevent a line break between the number and its according information/unit. E.g., 100 km², Fig. 3, Henry VII., Table 1. The protected space is inserted by pressing [Ctrl]+[Shift]+[Space] in many word-processing software. Turn on the formatting symbols to check if the protected space is in place.

When giving ranges of numbers, please ensure to use the N-dash (“–“) instead of (“-“) minus to separate the pages. The N-dash is inserted with [Ctrl]+[Numpad “-“] in MS Word. Eg. (Boasson and Visser, 2017, pp. 210–214).

Figures

Figures must be submitted as separate files in well-established raster graphic formats, such as *.tif, *.png, *.gif. Please use the following naming convention:

figure_01.png, figure_02.png, etc.

Every figure must be referenced in the text by an anchor in Brackets, e.g.

The template is there to guarantee a smooth publishing process and a neat appearance of the proceedings (see Figure 1). Not using the submission form will result in a delay of publication, a frustrated and overloaded committee, and unforgiving reviewers (Figure 2).

Please enter all the figure captions in the table below the text. Figure captions should consist of complete sentences and explain the context visible in the Figure well.

There are two sizes of figures possible: Full page (17 cm width) or half page (8 cm width). If you include Text in your figures, make sure it is large enough to be used in print, given the desired size of the Figure. The resolution must be at least 300 dpi.

Authors must obtain permission to publish illustrations taken from a copyrighted source. The figure caption must include the appropriate copyright information.

Tables

Please submit tables as separate files in *.csv, *.xls or *.ods-files. In the text, include anchors, referring to the tables, e.g.

A larger series of numerical data is best displayed as a table (Table 1).

Tables should be numbered according to the order in which they first appear. Please ensure you refer to each table in your text. For each table, captions explaining the table’s content are mandatory. Please enter all the table captions in the table further below in this document.

References in the text

Please give all references according to Harvard Manchester style: http://subjects.library.manchester.ac.uk/referencing/referencing-harvard.

(Boasson and Visser, 2017, pp. 210–214)

Author names can also be included in the text, with the year of the publication set in brackets:
