We’re pleased to announce an exciting opportunity for our members to publish a ‘Tools of the Trade’ article in Nature Reviews Earth & Environment—the top-ranked geoscience journal.
‘Tools of the Trade’ are short-form articles (~300 words) that focus on what early career researchers (ECRs) know very well—your tools and methods. Nature Reviews Earth & Environment developed this article type as a way to get ECRs (primarily graduate students) on the publication ladder, and at the same time, develop writing skills by receiving constructive feedback and edits on the draft text. We’re therefore very excited to forge this APECS-NREE partnership given our overlapping goals.
If you have interest in contributing a Tools of the Trade article, please complete this short form (it will only take a few minutes). The editors at Nature Reviews Earth & Environment will assess the pitches and select those they are able proceed with—unfortunately they are unable to take forward all proposals. The editors are particularly eager to receive proposals on field-based tools, so if you do some cool field work, please do consider submitting.
Further information is available on the form.
Proposals will be assessed on a rolling basis, but we encourage you to submit sooner rather than later and take advantage of this fantastic opportunity!
