New open access proceedings service supports earth and environmental science conferences

New open access proceedings service supports earth and environmental science conferences


22/11/2007Monday 19 November 2007 saw the launch of IOP Conference Proceedings: Earth and Environmental Science
(EES) a fast, efficient and low-cost open access proceedings service
dedicated to conferences specializing in the earth and environmental
science disciplines.

Based on IOP Publishing’s highly successful
open access proceedings in physics, EES allows conference organizers to
create a comprehensive record of their event and make a valuable
contribution to the open access literature that will be of long-lasting
benefit to their research communities.

As part of the service’s
launch, EES is waiving a total of US$5000 of publication fees for a
number of conferences who expect to publish their proceedings during
2008.

We are delighted to announce that the first conference to qualify for this is the 14th International Symposium for the Advancement of Boundary Layer Remote Sensing (ISARS2008) which takes place on 23–25 June 2008, Risø National Laboratory, DTU, Roskilde, Denmark.

Professor Jakob Mann, Risø National Laboratory, Technical University of Denmark, commented:

"We
are very pleased to have qualified for free publication. We chose EES
because we had good recent experiences with IOP Publishing's Journal of Physics: Conference Series. IOP’s efficient electronic and printed proceedings service is a great help for any conference organizer."
