[Aqualist] G-Cubed Special Theme (Carbon): Call For Manuscripts

[brodie]

Dear Listmembers,

G-Cubed Special Theme: Call For Manuscripts for theme focused on carbon in the natural environment

The "Development of Isotopic Proxies for Palaeoenvionrmental Interpretation: A Carbon Perspective" (DIPPI-C) working group invites manuscript submissions to its current special theme in the AGU/Geochemical Society journal G-Cubed. We seek submissions investigating Carbon in the environment (in organic and/or inorganic materials) using isotopic and/or molecular approaches (including radiocarbon), in modern and palaeo settings. Studies that cover the spectrum of research from plant-soil-atmosphere interactions, preservation/degradation, C cycling and transfer, through to deep burial and storage of carbon and palaeo reconstructions, at all spatial and temporal scales, are encouraged. We are also interested in papers focused on method development (either lab or theoretical based) and research seeking to constrain the uncertainties on carbon proxy data. The theme is very broad, and this description is not exhaustive. The journal accepts original research papers, reviews, technical briefs and comments (descriptions of each can be found here<http://publications.agu.org/author-resource-center/author-guide/g-cubed/>).

A description of, and publications already accepted in, the theme can be viewed here<http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/(ISSN)1525-2027/specialsection/CARBON1>. We are operating a fast turn around time of articles from point of submission to publication, and submissions will be accepted until 31 December 2013.

Submission and author guidelines can be found here<http://publications.agu.org/author-resource-center/author-guide/>.

Manuscript submission is through the GEMS system, found here<http://gcubed-submit.agu.org/cgi-bin/main.plex>.

If you have any questions on publishing your research within this special theme, including whether it fits the scope of the theme, please get in touch with one of the theme editors: Chris Brodie (brodie at hku.hk<mailto:brodie at hku.hk>), James Casford (j.s.l.casford at durham.ac.uk<mailto:j.s.l.casford at durham.ac.uk>), Melanie Leng (mjl at nigl.nerc.ac.uk<mailto:mjl at nigl.nerc.ac.uk>), Erin McClymont (erin.mcclymont at durham.ac.uk<mailto:erin.mcclymont at durham.ac.uk>), who will be happy to answer any queries.
