Volume 3 (2010) of Ideas in Ecology and Evolution is now complete
(http://library.queensu.ca/ojs/index.php/IEE), including a year-end
editorial announcing a new peer-review model that will be explored for 2011.
In the Author-Directed Peer-Review (ADPR) model, authors make their
own arrangements for peer-review of manuscripts, with follow-up
revision as necessary - prior to submission - thus providing several
advantages over the conventional peer-review system - including
faster publication time and reduced author fees (see the editorial
for further details). IEE, however, will continue to seek referees
and arrange peer-review for submitted manuscripts in the traditional
manner, if authors wish.
Ideas in Ecology and Evolution publishes short forum-style articles
that develop new ideas or that involve original commentaries on any
topics within the broad domains of fundamental or applied ecology or
evolution. They may encompass any level of biological organization,
and involve any taxa, including humans. Articles may concern subject
matter within any recognized sub-discipline of ecology or evolution,
or they may be broader in scope, including articles that aim to
inform fields of study outside of biology. All articles are joined
by a conceptual foundation in the core principles of ecology and
evolution studied by biologists.
