Survey for EiCs of Ecological and Evolutionary Journals

Hey, all, here is the survey I’d like to send out to the EiCs of ecological and evolutionary journals listed here (I have a few more to fill in – or fill them in yourselves).

This survey will clarify policies across journals, and the last question will look at attitudes of the EiCs themselves. It’s VERY simple. Carol, if there are things you think I should modify, I’m happy to do so. Let me know, and I’ll send it out in the New Year! This should clarify a lot of confusion.
