Hello, everyone! I turned a recent intern training/ professional development workshop on "how to write and publish a scientific paper in marine ecology and conservation" into a blog post so that others can benefit from the resource. It is designed for beginning graduate students and advanced undergraduates.
http://www.southernfriedscience.com/?p=18236 This post includes tips ranging from title selection to choosing the appropriate journal to how to actually upload your paper to a journal submission site. Examples are provided throughout. There are many strategies for each of these tasks, and I've shared here the ones that work well for me personally. There are other strategies and students should seek them out to figure out what works best for you. Please let me know what you think, feel free to suggest alternative strategies in the comments section of the blog! And please share with students who you think may be interested. Thanks, all!
