I wanted to bring to everyones attention the new community-science
blog, Rapid Ecology, a blog written for ecologists, by ecologists.
Science blogs are significant drivers of scientific discourse, yet only
a few blogs have broad visibility. Rapid Ecology is intended to address
this issue by providing a platform for many voices. If you have
something to say and youd like other ecologists to hear you, Rapid
Ecology is designed to be your megaphone.
Rapid Ecology invites posts written for a general audience focusing on
new research, professional aspects of being an ecologist, musings on the
natural world, tips on methodology, or anything broadly interesting to
the ecology community. The site is also interested in monthly themed
columns from single-authors.
Recent posts have tackled imposter syndrome, academic accountability,
species distribution modeling, and whether manuscript cover letters have
outlived their usefulness.
You can find Rapid Ecology at rapidecology.com and take a closer
look at the submission guidelines at rapidecology.com/submission-guidelines/
You can also follow Rapid Ecology on Twitter: @RapidEcology
I and the fellow members of the editorial board look forward to your
submissions!
