Erratum and Retractions
Certificate of Errors and Retractions
The content published in the journal's articles may be corrected when, during the evaluation and editing process or even after publication, the author or editor discovers or is notified of undetected errors.
Depending on the type, severity and/or consequences of the error, the following changes and/or additions may be made to the articles:
- Fe de Errores: refers to the correction of one or more errors that do not prevent the article from continuing to be active.
- Retraction: This is due to the recognition of considerably serious errors that invalidate the article's results and conclusions and, therefore, require the article to be withdrawn in its entirety. Articles that have been shown to violate the journal's editorial ethics statement will also be subject to retraction.
- Retraction with republication: This will be considered in cases where the Editorial Board considers that an honest error (e.g., a misclassification or calculation error) led to a significant change in the direction or meaning of the results, interpretations, and conclusions. In this case, a new evaluation will be made, and readers will be informed of the scope of the changes made.
Any request for a Certificate of Errors or Retraction must be communicated to the emailestrategiaygu@gmail.com presenting their case and providing the necessary information to support it.
All identified errors will be thoroughly analyzed by the Editor-in-Chief and the Editorial Committee. In more complex cases, the Editor-in-Chief may request expert advice to make decisions and provide ethical solutions for each case.
In all cases, EGU will ensure that errors are corrected promptly. It will also communicate and detail the changes and the dates on which they were made to the scientific community so that readers are aware of the corrections made.
