Editorial Board of Studia Geomorphologica Carpatho-Balcanica warns that any detected cases of the phenomenon of "ghostwriting" (the person has made a significant contribution to the publication, without disclosing his participation as one of the authors) and "guest authorship" (the person is listed as author/co-author, although its contribution as an author is minimal or doesn’t have a place) will be documented and exposing, including notification of relevant actors (institutions employing the authors, societies, associations, scientific editors, etc.).
