The Journal will be issued quarterly in electronic and hard copy by Springer Publications beginning in early 2011. We invite you to submit articles for the Journal. AESS is an independent professional association designed to serve the needs of environmental scholars, scientists, practitioners and students who value interdisciplinary approaches to research, teaching, and problem-solving. NCSE serves as the Secretariat for AESS. We encourage you to join as a member and become an original subscriber to the Journal. To join or to find more information about AESS, please visit http://www.aess.info/. The AESS and Journal provide venues for the advancement of interdisciplinary approaches to the study of the coupled human-nature systems. A major goal of AESS is to encourage this advancement by promoting related teaching, research and service and by facilitating communication across boundaries that may inhibit environmental discourse across traditional academic disciplines. This commitment also involves supporting the professional development of Association members and advancing the educational status of Environmental Studies and Environmental Sciences programs. The Council of Environmental Deans and Directors (CEDD) of which NCSE also serves as Secretariat is actively involved in the leadership of AESS. The Journal, available to all AESS members, provides a peer-reviewed, academically rigorous and professionally recognized forum for the publication of explicitly interdisciplinary environmental research, policy analysis and advocacy, educational discourse and other related matters. Contributions are welcome from any discipline or combination of disciplines, any vocation or professional affiliation, any national, ethnic or cultural background. Articles may relate to any historical and global setting. The Journal provides several submission categories: . Research and Theory. . Research Briefs. . Environmental Education . Policy Analysis . Commentary and Opinion . Book Reviews and Review Articles . Special Issues and Symposia . Letters Additional information about submissions and instructions for authors are available at the Journal website: http://www.springer.com/environment/journal/13412?detailsPage=editorialBoard <http://www.springer.com/environment/journal/13412?detailsPage=editorialBoar d&cm_mmc=AD-_-Journal-_-BIO12955_V1-_-0> &cm_mmc=AD-_-Journal-_-BIO12955_V1-_-0 Dr. Walter (Tony) Rosenbaum of the University of Florida serves as the Editor in Chief.
