The European Journal of Soil Biology covers all aspects of fundamental and applied soil biology relating to soil microbial and faunal ecology, and processes promoted by soil organisms. Soils from managed and natural ecosystems of biomes worldwide are of interest, and the Journal is open to submissions from all parts of the world.
An important aspect for elucidating the central role of soil organisms is to study their structural and functional diversity and explore living conditions in heterogeneous biological and physico-chemical environments. Scales of study may range from soil aggregates up to landscapes.

The acceptance rate/percentage of any academic journal/conference depends upon many parameters. Some of the critical parameters are listed below.
It is essential to understand that the acceptance rate/rejection rate of papers varies among journals. Some Journals considers all the manuscripts submissions as a basis of acceptance rate computation. On the other hand, few consider the only manuscripts sent for peer review or few even not bother about the accurate maintenance of total submissions. Hence, it can provide a rough estimation only.
The best way to find out the acceptance rate is to reach out to the associated editor or to check the official website of the Journal/Conference.
