JAWRA Seeks Associate Editor, Water Quality Monitoring

JAWRA is looking for an associate editor [AE] for Water Quality Monitoring. The position would focus on evaluating articles about chemical and biological sampling efforts, looking at the temporal and spatial coverage and the statistical treatment of data. We would consider selecting two individuals for positions in this area, depending on how the candidates match, and if needed to cover the workload.

 

JAWRA AEs serve as primary advisors to the editor. Responsibilities fall into two areas: reviews and subject development. The AE for Water Quality Monitoring handles 20 to 25 papers per year, which would be divided between the two incumbents. All manuscripts are processed through ScholarOne Manuscripts™, with the AE selecting reviewers and, when reviews return, making a recommendation to the editor. AEs are encouraged to seek out qualified authors in their subject areas and encourage them to submit papers to JAWRA. These could be individual submittals or as featured collections of related papers organized around an introduction.

 

Associate editorship is a volunteer position earning our heartfelt thanks and an invitation to our annual AE luncheon. It also offers the opportunity to make a difference on the cutting edge of multidisciplinary water resources. Many AEs have found the experience of making decisions on manuscripts helpful in sharpening their own professional writing skills. The term of an AE is three years, but may be extended by mutual agreement. Interested individuals should email their CV to the editor at [email protected]. We are happy to answer any questions. We will hold this position open at a minimum until Tuesday, February 11, 2014.
