Call for papers for Science Programs and Publication

The local organizing committee is planning to publish a special issue in scientific journals.  We will publish the special issue of the ILTER 2011 annual meetings in the peer-reviewed international journal, Eurasian Journal of Forest Research (EJFR) published by Hokkaido University Forests, Field Science Center for Northern Biosphere, Hokkaido University.  This journal mainly focuses on forest science, but this special issue covers not only forest, but also other types of ecosystems (such as freshwater, lake, marine, farmland and so on) associated with the LTER science. Authors who give an oral or poster presentation in the science program of ILTER 2011 meetings can submit the manuscripts based on their presentations.  The manuscripts should be written in English and reviewed by at least two anonymous scientists before the publication.  The manuscripts should be submitted to the editorial board of the special issue no later than September 4, 2011.  The details of the instruction to authors will be provided soon (mostly the same as the normal submission to EJFR).  Manuscripts should be a maximum of 8 printed pages for original articles and 12 printed pages for review papers.

Furthermore, some of the papers may be published in another high-impact international journal associated with ecology.  We are currently discussing this with the editorial board and the name of the journal and the framework for the manuscripts will be provided later.  The Science Committee of JaLTER will invite authors through the discussion with the journal’s editorial board and the ILTER-EC.
