[LTER-luq] CTE2 Special Issue...

[Aaron Shiels]

Hi All,



Happy 2020!   I’ve resurrected the CTE2 Special Issue plan that Grizelle
and I had worked on, and I have just today drafted a prospectus for
Ecosphere.  I apologize for my delays in getting this out, but I would
still like to follow through with publishing a special issue on the
findings from CTE2 (and that may include concomitant drought and Hurricane
Maria effects occurring in the CTE plots for some papers).  In the drafted
prospectus for Ecosphere, I have stated that we would have all papers
submitted for the special issue by *August 1, 2020*.  I hope that seems
reasonable, but please let me know otherwise.



I have attached the list that Grizelle and I had of folks interested in
this and the papers each person was planning. I realize a few years have
gone by since originating this and some of you may have published your
paper or have other plans for them.  We will certainly want to know about
those so we can cite them, and it will also require some slight adjustments
to the prospectus for Ecosphere*.  So, could the leads on each of the
papers listed write me back to let me know if:*

*1) you are still interested in writing your paper for the special issue of
Ecosphere, and *

*2) if submission by August 1, 2020 is feasible and a timeline that you can
commit to.*



Additionally, if there are others that have worked in the CTE plots since
the 2nd trimming in 2014 and have response data that they are interested in
including in the special issue, please let me and Grizelle know.  Like the
2014 Forest Ecology and Management special issue covering CTE1, I think
this will be an exciting and impactful product to work on with all of you
(and I know Grizelle feels the same).



Thank you, and I wish everyone a great year!

Aaron
