Geophysical Research Letters Editor Search
Because of GRL's continuing growth, its commitment to rapid publication, and its broad perspective, additional Editors are needed. The Search Committee invites applications for editorships in all subject areas, particularly ocean sciences, and from all parts of the world. Editors will be appointed to the team for 3-year terms.
Successful candidates will be dynamic, well-organized scientists with high editorial standards. They will have strong leadership skills and be able and willing to stretch beyond their own areas of specialty so that the full range of topics is covered.
Applicants should be respected leaders in the community, independent-minded, and even-handed. As Editor you should be committed to further strengthen GRL as a leading letters journal and be proactive in attracting concise papers that present scientific advances that are likely to have immediate impact on the research of other investigators. The Union is interested in attracting papers in developing areas and ensuring that readers of GRL receive the best and most timely information possible.
As Editor you will
- have full authority to accept or reject submitted papers
