caption (https://ctan.org/pkg/caption) - to format captions to figures and tables;
footmisc (https://ctan.org/pkg/footmisc) - to align footnotes at the left edge of text, as in the journal;
indentfirst (https://ctan.org/pkg/indentfirst) - for indentation of the first line in a section;

Normally all packages should be installed in a regular way from their distributions. 
If some of the listed packages are missing in your LaTeX implementation, 
you may get and install them at the URLs indicated above.
