[ECOLOG-L] Ecology Journals With A Monograph Format or that Allow Longer Papers

Dear List, I was wondering if anyone knew of a journal in the ecological sciences that publishes monographs aside from ESA’s “Ecological Monographs”. The success rate there is just not very high, and getting even worse. Essentially, I have what is a long, but important descriptive paper. At th

Re: Pens or pencils for field notes

For paper, the "rite in rain" notebooks are definately the way to go. Though they are a tad more expensive than I like, they are worth it. I've written detailed field notes on them (using the all weather pen) while snorkeling underwater. They also double as great lab books if you have "dirty lab
