************************************** Changes in the Team of Editors for Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research From: Friso Veenstra <l.veenstra@xxxxxxxxxxxx> ************************************** Bruce Marsh and Steve Weaver stepped down per 2007 - John Eichelberger, Joan Martí, and Jurgen Neuberg taking on the Editorship After seventeen years of Editorship, Bruce Marsh and Steve Weaver decided to step down from the Team of Editors for the Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research. During their time as Editors, Steve and Bruce were very actively involved with the Journal and the many papers submitted, and they have contributed substantially to the scientific standards achieved by JVGR today. Earlier this year, John Eichelberger, Joan Marti, Jurgen Neuberg accepted our invitation to join the Team of Editors. - John Eichelberger is Professor of Volcanology at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, and coordinating scientist in the Alaska Volcano Observatory. John's primary scientific contributions have been toward understanding the origins of andesitic magmas and the factors that control explosive versus effusive eruption styles. - Joan Martí is a Research Professor at the Institute of Earth Sciences of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) in Barcelona. Joan has conducted much research relating to the structure of calderas and the dynamics of caldera-forming eruptions and associated hazards. He has studied explosive volcanism in different modern and ancient volcanic environments. - Jurgen Neuberg is Professor of Physical Volcanology at the University of Leeds. Jurgen is co-ordinator of the European project MULTIMO, 'Multidisciplinary monitoring, modelling and forecasting of volcanic hazard', and chairman of the working group 'Seismic phenomena associated with volcanic activity' of the European Seismological Commission. His main research interest is the seismological investigation of the lowermost mantle and the core-mantle boundary. On behalf of the Team of Editors, the Publisher would like to take this opportunity to thank Bruce and Steve for their major contributions to JVGR. At the same time, we would like to welcome John, Joan and Jurgen and wish them every success in their new positions. Furthermore, we would like to inform the readers and authors of the Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research of a change in the editorial system and procedure for the journal. As of May 1st, 2007, the journal will be managed by a group of six Chief Editors: Dr Giovanni Chiodini Osservatorio Vesuviano Naples Italy Professor John Eichelberger Department of Geology and Geophysics University of Alaska Fairbanks Fairbanks, AK USA Dr Margaret T. Mangan Volcano Hazards Team US Geological Survey Menlo Park, CA USA Professor Joan Martí Institute of Earth Sciences "Jaume Almera" CSIC Barcelona Spain Professor Jurgen W. Neuberg Institute of Geophysics & Tectonics University of Leeds Leeds UK Professor Lionel Wilson Environmental Science Department Lancaster University Lancaster UK Contributors are free to select the Editor of their choice for the submission of papers. For author instructions, we would like to refer you to http://ees.elsevier.com/volgeo. By changing the system we hope to increase the speed of publication and to achieve a more direct contact between the authors and Editors of the journal.
