Air, Soil and Water Research

Air, Soil and Water Research is a new open access journal Libertas Academica launched in March 2008.

Since being launched the journal has exceeded our expectations, with 5 articles published and over 7,000 unique table of contents views (excluding web indexing crawlers). The most widely read article has been read over 500 times and even the least frequently read paper has been read over 90 times. One of the major, yet not widely recognised, advantages of open access is that it allows readers to know exactly how widely read their work is.

We've just sent the first 'Inside View' newsletter for the journal. Inside View newsletters typically contain:
  • A summary of recent developments in the journal
  • Papers published in the previous two months
  • Titles of papers under peer review
Inside View newsletters are available for each journal, and can be registered for in My LA.
