最全Cover Letter写法
cover letter是你给编辑的第一印象，也是能否赢得审稿机会的关键。不同学科的cover letter要求也是不一样的，怎样才能写出一篇好的cover letter呢?
1什么是cover letter?
指的是投稿信
2cover letter的内容主要包括那些?
应该简述所投稿件的核心内容、主要发现和意义，拟投期刊，对稿件处理有无特殊要求等(如“not to review”list)。另外，请附上主要作者的中文姓名、通讯地址、电话、传真和e-mail地址。此外有的杂志要求推荐几位审稿人及其联系方式。以及谁已经阅读过该文(当然是牛人)。
我投的那个杂志是要求说明你论文研究的意义，以及与这个杂志的相关性，另外还有的可能要写明你没有一搞多投等。此外临床实验要求写明符合伦理学要求。
3如何写cover letter?
各个杂志的具体要求是不一样的，在杂志的guide for authors一般会有要求。如果没有具体的要求，大家可按照通用要求处理。
首先是要搞清楚投稿须知的要求，如果以前没有写过cover letter的可以向有经验的同事请教，如果有可能的话，拿到一份cover letter的模版那是最好的。如果需要自己琢磨的话，不清楚的地方可以邮件联系期刊编辑人员。一般来说，他们都是很乐意帮忙的。
在写cover letter的时候，应该要注意的以下几点：
1. 严格遵守投稿须知的要求，不要犯一些不符合投稿要求的低级错误，这样会显得不够有诚意。
2. 精简明了很重要。越简短的cover letter，越有可能被仔细阅读，琐碎细节能省则省。主要说明为何这篇文章适合该期刊，避免长篇大论，力求简洁有力。
3. 小细节可以更具体一点，比如：
如果已经明确知道编辑名字，可以将投稿信署名给他。
所有共同作者都要清楚地列出来。
透过参照此期刊最近出版的相关研究展示你对该期刊的.了解，并说明你的文章的相关性。
4. 最重要的是要说明你的研究的价值。可以强调下面几点：
论文中提出了新观点或新发现。
论文是目前最新的研究趋势，或热点议题。
论文将以往期刊已发表的成果又向前推进了一步。
但是也要注意的是，不要写的太多。重点挑出一两个就可以了，太多反而让人觉得不可信。
5. 主动提出潜在的科研伦理问题。如果文章观点跟其他人兴趣有一些冲突什么的，主动提出并简单解释，会容易给编辑一种负责且全面的印象。

Dear Editor,
We would like to submit the enclosed manuscript entitled "GDNF Acutely Modulates Neuronal Excitability and A-type Potassium Channels in Midbrain Dopaminergic Neurons", which we wish to be considered for publication in Nature Neuroscience.
GDNF has long been thought to be a potent neurotrophic factor for the survival of midbrain dopaminergic neurons, which are degenerated in Parkinson’s disease. In this paper, we report an unexpected, acute effect of GDNF on A-type potassium channels, leading to a potentiation of neuronal excitability, in the dopaminergic neurons in culture as well as in adult brain slices. Further, we show that GDNF regulates the K+ channels through a mechanism that involves activation of MAP kinase. Thus, this study has revealed, for the first time, an acute modulation of ion channels by GDNF. Our findings challenge the classic view of GDNF as a long-term survival factor for midbrain dopaminergic neurons, and suggest that the normal function of GDNF is to regulate neuronal excitability, and consequently dopamine release. These results may also have implications in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.
Due to a direct competition and conflict of interest, we request that Drs. XXX of Harvard Univ., and YY of Yale Univ. not be considered as reviewers. With thanks for your consideration, I am

Dear Sirs,
I am sending herewith a copy of the manuscript, which I would like to submit to SOLA, the Electronic Journal of the Meteorological Society of Japan.
The paper is entitled:
Energy Spectrum Proportional to the Squared Phase Speed of
Rossby Modes in the General Circulation of the Atmosphere
by H. L. Tanaka, Yasushi Watarai, and Takahiro Kanda.
Copy of the Abstract:
In this study, energy spectrum of the large-scale atmospheric motions is examined in the framework of the 3D normal mode decomposition. The horizontal scale of disturbance is measured by the phase speed of a Rossby mode c. According to the analysis result for the barotropic component of the atmosphere, we obtain a characteristic energy spectrum with distinct slopes for the turbulence and wave regimes separated by the spherical Rhines speed. In order to explain the observational finding that the energy spectrum is proportional to c^2, we put forward a hypothesis based on the criterion of Rossby wave breaking such that the local meridional gradient of potential vorticity becomes negative, dq/dy < 0, somewhere in the domain. With a constant m describing a total mass of the atmosphere for unit area, we have shown that the barotropic energy spectrum of the general circulation E can be represented as E=mc^2.
