This forthcoming issue may be of interest to IntSci members: The Environmental Conservation Journal is inviting papers for a themed issue on 'Interdisciplinary Progress in Environmental Science'. Environmental issues encompass extensive problems that evidently require 'interdisciplinary' science and management, yet such approaches seem to be few and there are many barriers (e.g. institutional structures) to progress. With much discussion about the need for interdisciplinary thinking to improve understanding and management of the global environment, the Foundation for Environmental Conservation is planning the 6th International Conference on Environmental Future (6ICEP) to comprehensively debate what 'interdisciplinary environmental science' is and what it might be in the future. Major reviews are already being commissioned to provide keynote and discussion material at the 6ICEF and this themed issue aims to help further broaden the background for this conference. Papers of interest may be on epistemologies and institutional issues, on the science and methodologies involved or on management practices. Papers should be submitted by 4th January 2010.
