Dear Colleagues (please forward widely) I just wanted to share some info (4 points below) about one of marine mammal conservation research’s favourite journals- Endangered Species Research (ESR), (companion journal to Mar Ecol Prog Series). https://www.int-res.com/journals/esr/esr-home/ 1. Theme Sections: To help consolidate the position of the journal we are launching 4 Special Theme Section in the coming weeks with deadline for submission end 2018 and early 2019. These will all be fully peer reviewed but seek to gather cogent bodies of work around large and/or emerging areas of conservation research. All submissions are welcome. Please let me know the rough title of any paper you would like to submit and when it may be received. As you will see they are all of clear interest to our community. So please forward to your networks and share widely. 1. “Drones in Conservation Research” 2. “Marine Pollution and Endangered Species” 3. “Biologging for Conservation” 4. “Marine Vertebrate Bycatch: Problems and Solutions” Info on previous Special Theme Sections here: https://www.int-res.com/journals/esr/esr-specials/ 2. Impact Factor: ESR now has an ISI Impact Factor of 2.3. Modest, but rising from 1.8 last year and 1.4 the year before! I have inserted a table below contextualized where we have reached and where our trajectory might be. This is a result of great support from this community as authors, reviewers and editors. So thank you! Conservation Biology 5.890 Biological Conservation 4.660 Conservation Physiology 3.460 Aquatic Conservation 2.988 Animal Conservation 2.889 Biodiversity and Conservation 2.828 Oryx 2.333 Endangered Species Research 2.312 Environmental Conservation 2.293 Marine Ecology Progress Series 2.276 Advances in Marine Biology 2.225 Marine Biology 2.215 3. Reviews: For an open access journal of its standing, we still have fewer integrative reviews than we might. I am always open to suggestions. 4. Marine Mammal Papers: ESR is host to a great many excellent marine mammal papers (>>100 since 2014). I append below a list of recent ones with URL to OA papers. Please review the list and diffuse through your networks so people can build on this excellent work. If anyone would like a word doc of same, contact me and it can be forwarded.
