[Exports_pi] Post meeting business...

[David Siegel]

Hi All,

Hope all got home well and are diligently getting your data ready to submit to SeaBASS. Couple details we can use some help with. 

1) Please look at your Projects webpage on the EXPORTS site and update any personnel or other items as appropriate - https://oceanexports.org/projects.html <https://oceanexports.org/projects.html>. Please email dcourt at eri.ucsb.edu <mailto:dcourt at eri.ucsb.edu> with updates.  These have not been updated since we built them last year - and we now know that NASA HQ folks are looking at it!!  Please send along other website suggestions to Ivona and me too.  

2) I could use some feedback on setting up a publication collection on Elementa for the NE Pacific cruise results. I have talked with Oliver Chadwick who’s an editor and chief for the Earth & Environmental Sciences side of it and he was encouraging as well. Quick addition to the following.  Page charges are $1450 flat fee and Oliver things that there may be breaks on the page charges if the authors are UC familiar (that way I am on everybody’s papers!!!).  More on that as I learn it.  I want to 

> One last note. Today both Uta Passow and Craig Lee approached me about using Elementa (https://www.elementascience.org/ <https://www.elementascience.org/>) for our special issue to place a collection of papers for the NE Pacific cruise. They have had great experiences with it.  Considering that it was Craig and Uta (on nearly opposite ends of the EXPORTS spectrum), I think we should listen.  Elementa refers to itself as a journal "for the Science of the Anthropocene and as a trans-disciplinary, open-access journal committed to the facilitation of collaborative, peer-reviewed research”. I suppose that is us.  Elementa is published by UC Press and they will create a webpage for their Special Collections which we would fit into (see https://collections.elementascience.org/special-feature-listings <https://collections.elementascience.org/special-feature-listings>).  Elementa is newish (they are now in the 7th year) and I would like to hear what experiences you may have had with it (both submitting and reviewing). That said, it seems like the best option I’ve heard for us.


3) I’m passing along this message from Richard Lampitt about an opportunity at Southampton.  Please pass this to anyone you think might be appropriate for this position.

> On another matter, we are advertising for a Principal Investigator in particle flux and I thought you would have a few people you could encourage to apply. Although the advert states that it is for 3 years, our intention is that these are Tenure Track posts or, if the candidate is sufficiently strong, they will negotiate for a permanent post from day one. We are advertising for several PI positions so it will I think be an exciting time ahead.
> Hope you have some good people in mind you could send this to.

4) Last, there is no all-hands telecom this week. Maybe next. There will be a Project Office telecom on Thursday - 9PT/noonET.  More later…

Best, Dave & Ivona
