摘要

<正>When early explorers first crossed the Platte River in what is now Nebraska (USA), it was said the river was"a mile wide and an inch deep"(Mokler, 1923; Smith, 1971). This phrase was used to describe not only the difficulty in crossing the river but also in navigating its length. The trouble with a river being too wide is the risk that it won't provide the depth necessary to be useful.The same thing can be said of multidisciplinary scientific journals.
