One of the publications of the Ecological Society of America is its
Bulletin. Although the quarterly publication was once mailed in
printed form to all ESA members, it is now available only in a
digital format. It serves as the publication of record for Society
business such as the minutes and results of elections, provides a
gallery of photos to accompany recent papers in the other ESA
journals, and includes reviews of meetings, the Ecology 101 columns,
the History of Ecology series, Resolutions of Respect for deceased
ecologists, and other articles and announcements. It has been the
source of a wide range of articles that should be of interest to ESA
members, including:
Berenbaum, M. R. and R. J. Leskosky (1992). "Life history strategies
and population biology in science fiction films." Bulletin of the
Ecological Society of America 73(4): 236-240.
Carson, W. P. (1999). "A primer on how to apply to and get admitted
to graduate school in ecology and evolutionary biology." Bulletin of
the Ecological Society of America 80(4): 246-250.
Inouye, B. D., N. Underwood, et al. (2006). "Interviewing for
academic jobs." Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America 87(2): 155-158.
Roughgarden, J. (2001). "Guide to diplomatic relations with
economists." Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America 82(1): 85-88.
Saavedra, F. and L. Douglass (2002). "Using mixed models in SAS for
ecological analyses." Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America
83(3): 180-182.
Stearns, S. C. (1987). "Some modest advice for graduate students."
Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America 68: 145-150.

I'm seeking your feedback about the stature, use, and presentation of
the Bulletin, or other thoughts about it. If you have comments,
please send them to me directly (unless it's a point you'd like to
engender discussion about on the list). If you haven't looked at the
latest issues, you can find them at: http://www.esajournals.org/loi/ebul
Thanks.
