One Ecosystem is an innovative open access scholarly journal which provides a forum for studies in the field of ecology and sustainability. In addition to conventional research papers, the journal welcomes contributions documenting the entire research cycle, including data, models, methods, workflows, results, software, perspectives and policy recommendations. By making research outputs public, the journal will open up new mechanisms for integration of information, collaboration, appraisal, and dissemination. One Ecosystem uses ARPHA - a technologically unique publishing platform which supports the full life cycle of a manuscript, from writing through submission, public peer-review, publication and dissemination.
