Open Access
This is a subscription journal that offers an open access option. These articles are treated the same as any other article. They go through the journal's standard peer-review process and will be accepted or rejected based on their own merit. After an article's acceptance, authors are offered the option to pay an additional Article Publication Charge (APC) to make their article open access.
All standard publication charges will still apply; a member discount is not available for this option. You can read more about open-access APCs and whether you may be eligible for waivers or discounts, through your institution, funder, or a country waiver for publishing your paper via the open access option.
