Guides authors through the editorial review workflow, area editor routing, and desk-reject screening for the Annals of the American Association of Geographers.

The AAAG Review Process skill equips academic authors with clear guidance on how the Annals of the American Association of Geographers evaluates manuscript submissions. It breaks down the double-anonymous peer review model across its four primary domain areas—Geographic Methods, Human Geography, Nature and Society, and Physical Geography/Earth & Environmental Sciences—along with General Geography and Cartography tracks. By identifying common desk-reject triggers, area-specific reviewer expectations, and strategic paths for interpreting revision decisions, this skill ensures manuscripts are properly positioned and stress-tested before submission or formal rebuttal.
