The Journal of Environmental Studies and Sciences (JESS) is seeking several Associate Editors to replace current Board members whose terms have expired. The editorial work involved, reasonable in light of other professional responsibilities common to Board members, is extremely important in establishing the content and quality of the Journal. An Associate Editor may be asked to suggest reviewers for submitted manuscripts, to advise on editorial policy, perhaps to contribute material to the JESS and, especially, to encourage diversity in the journal’s content, its professional and academic audience, and readership appeal.
Candidates are welcome from any occupational or academic background relating to environmental studies, science, and professions. Candidates should also have substantial experience in relevant writing, publication, and professional practice. The initial appointment term is four years. JESS is the flagship publication of the Association for Environmental Studies and Sciences (AESS) founded in 2008. The Association is a growing national organization strongly grounded in the hundreds of academic environmental studies and science programs nationally and internationally. One of its highest priorities is to give voice, support, and credibility to these programs and to provide an academically credible venue for the publication of related research from such institutions, among other sources. AESS and the Journal are strongly supported by the National Council for Science and the Environment (NCSE) and the Council of Environmental Deans and Director (CEDD). The Journal, issued quarterly by the international publisher Springer, provides a peer-reviewed, academically rigorous and professionally recognized forum for the publication of interdisciplinary environmental research, policy analysis and advocacy, educational discourse and other related matters. The editorial board includes a diverse range of scholars, policy practitioners, and related professionals whose expertise extends broadly across the sciences, social sciences, humanities, and other disciplines related to environmental study.
