Here, AGU stands for American Geophysical Union. It recently came up with instructions for authors in five languages:
I highlight some common "mistakes" I see as an English editor.

• 提供可编辑的公式，不要采用图片格式
• 按照AGU 文风确定参考资料引用格式：使用“姓名-日期”格式，参考资料不用编号，在方括号中附上引用内容：…[Smith et al., 2009]…或Smith et al. [2009] show…
• 以上述形式提供每项参考资料的完整信息
• 在正文中引用所有参考资料，并为每个独有的正文引用提供参考

" Most Frequently Made Changes
The following checklist covers the changes made most frequently to AGU manuscripts. Following this checklist will help speed the processing of your manuscript.
• List all authors on title page and provide complete addresses for all authors
• Use American spellings rather than British spellings
• Incorporate footnoted information into text (footnotes are used only for affiliations and auxiliary material)
• Define abbreviations/acronyms at first use
• Change dates to international date format: 25 January 2003 (in tables, months may be abbreviated)
• Change bulleted lists to numbered lists
• Add space between numeral and unit of measure; do not use a dot
• Number text equations consecutively throughout; do not number by section, except appendix equations, which must be numbered separately from main text equations
• Provide equations that are editable, not formatted as pictures
• Format reference citations to AGU style: use name-date format, not numbered references, and enclose
citations in brackets: …[Smith et al., 2009]… or Smith et al. [2009] show…
• Provide complete information for each reference, as outlined above
• Cite all references in the text and provide a reference for each unique text citation
• Provide tables that are editable, not formatted as pictures (note that tables may be submitted in Excel)
• Include at least two points of latitude and longitude on figures containing maps
• LaTeX: Do not use newcommands, particularly ones with # (using ref and label and cite commands for reference citations is acceptable)"
