INSTRUCTIONS TO AUTHORS 1. In the thematic series "Engineering Geology
and Hydrogeology", original scientific papers are printed in Bulgarian and
English. Recommended volume of manuscripts is up to 20 typographic pages,
including the references and illustrations. 2. In the Editorial Board, the manuscript is submitted on CD/DVD or e-mail together with a printed copy of A4
format (optional), written in MS Word: Times New Roman font 12 pt, fields 2.5
cm left and 2 cm to the other sides, with a line spacing of 1.5 lines. 3. The articles in Bulgarian are coupled with
an extended summary in English - up to 1 standard page and short in Bulgarian -
up to ½ page, revealing the research methodology, results and conclusions. The
articles in English are presented with an extended summary in Bulgarian - up to
1 standard page and short in English - up to ½ page. Abstracts should not
contain references or quotations, nor an assessment of the author's
achievements. Abbreviations are not allowed in the title of the article. 4. The article is arranged in the following
way: Title; Author (s) – First and Family name, business address of the
author(s) and address for contact including e-mail (in English, in Roman script). Title; Author (s) – First and Family name
(in Bulgarian). Before the Abstracts, a bibliographic description in English is
given in the following order: author(s), year, title, source, volume, pages
(filled in by the editors). Following is an Abstracts in English, followed by a
list of keywords (up to six) and a summary in Bulgarian with listed keywords. 5. The statement shall be clear and consistent
with the terminology adopted. Word or title underlines are not allowed. 6. The units of
measurement shall be compulsorily assigned to the SI system. Formulas and
chemical symbols must clearly distinguish between lower and uppercase letters,
indices, and degrees. When the text is in Bulgarian, the decimal separator in the numbers is written
with a comma and in English with a period (full stop). 7. The transliteration of the Bulgarian geographical names into the Latin
alphabet should be in accordance with Regulation No. 3/26.10.2006, promulgated
in State Gazette, No. 94 / 21.11.2006. 8. References. The list of references is given
after the presented text in English (or using the Roman script) as the authors
are arranged in alphabetical order and chronologically. If an author has
several cited publications, the authors are first placed (in the year of
publication, if there are several of his published publications in one year,
the letters "a", "b" are inserted after the year etc.),
followed by one co-author (sorted by the second author's family name) and
finally by 3 or more co-authors (arranged in the year of publication). Both the
text and this list are not allowed underlining of titles and sources, as well
as other fonts. 9. Regardless of whether the text of the article is in English or Bulgarian,
the bibliographic data of references printed in Cyrillic are written in Latin
(Roman script) in the same way as in the respective foreign language in the
publication itself and not translated by the authors of the manuscript.
Indicate the original language of the article in parentheses and the language
of the abstract - eg. (in Bulgarian, with English abstract). The bibliographic
data is translated into English by the author if there is no published
translation. The bibliographic data for each quoted work is
presented in the following order: Author name (inverse). Year. Title. Edition
data. Collective works are written by all authors, but only the name of the
first is inversed. DeGraff, J.V., P. Canuti. 1988.
Using isopleth mapping
to evaluate landslide activity in relation
to agricultural practices. Bull. IAEG,
38, 61–70. Wright, R.H., R.H. Campbell, T.H. Nilsen.
1974. Preparation and use of isopleth maps of landslide deposits. Geology, 2, 483–485. For books,
monographs, and maps: Bryant, E. 2001. Tsunami. The
Underrated Hazard. Cambridge University Press. 320 p. Marinova,
R., I. Zagorchev. 1990. Geological Map of Bulgaria on Scale 1:100 000.
Razlog Map Sheet. Geology and Mineral Resources Committee,
Enterprise of Geophysical Survey and Geological Mapping. It is desirable that the archive materials should not be included in the
reference list but should be quoted on the relevant page below the line. 10. In the text, the sources are quoted by the author's name and year of
publication (Bryant, 2001), (DeGraff, Canuti, 1988; Marinova, Zagorchev, 1990).
In collective articles by more than two authors, only the first is noted,
adding "et al." (Wright et al., 1974). 11. Tables with Arabic numerals are presented on separate
pages after the literature, which are included in the total numbering of the
manuscript. Their place in the text is marked in the left field. Large size
tables requiring folding after printing are not acceptable. 12. Illustrations are presented in tif, jpg, png or
bmp format, preferably over 600 dpi in graphics and over 300 dpi in photos. The
resolution mentioned is for the size of the illustrations to be printed

of the respective page and each figure is marked with its number. Figures and
tables in articles should be clear and well configured in the content of the
article 13. The explanations under the figures are given on a separate page after
the literature in two languages - in Bulgarian and in English (or only in
English when the text of the article is in English). The Latin alphabet is used
for alphabetic labels in figures and applications. 14. Articles that do not meet the technical requirements will not be
considered. 15. Reviewing:

for technical reasons are allowed. Corrections are made with a different color
