The top section to the 2005-present cover of the Journal of Human Thermodynamics, showing that the cyclical heat input from the sun is what drives all processes of human existence, a set of phenomena studied by the science and laws of thermodynamics.

Libb Thims (collects article submissions) (via libbthims@gmail.com)	→	Articles are formatted (and then reviewed)	→	Articles are published (or rejected)

In short, JHT article submissions, in Word document format, are collected by Libb Thims, sent to him as attachments, primarily via libbthims@gmail.com or sometimes via questions@humanthermodynamics.com. The submitted articles are accumulated, as the year progresses, stored in computer file. At a point later in the year, Thims uploads each article into a JHT formatted online wiki page at the beta review site: JHT beta (submissions)

, each as a separate online article, ready to undergo the peer review and article improvement process, each review wiki article filed as a subpage to the JHT beta (submissions) header page. Thims then emails everyone (review board members and collective set of submitting authors) that the set of articles are ready for the open beta review process, and that everyone (review board members + authors + other interested parties) is now invited to review and comment on the said articles, through the following means of communication: (a) threads below each article, (b) text comments added into a review section at the top or bottom of wiki page of the article itself [as article changes can be tracked via the "about this update" and "complete history" links, below each article], (c) email reviews sent back to Thims (e.g. via word document attachment or email comments), or (d) other means the reviewer may think of to communicate his or her critique.
