Abstract
Biotropica, the flagship journal of the Association for Tropical Biology and Conservation, is a highly regarded source of original research on the ecology, conservation, and management of all tropical ecosystems, and on the evolution, behavior, and population biology of tropical organisms. We aim for timely, fair, transparent, and constructive reviews and editorial decisions. We value a geographically diverse Editorial Board with broad expertise in tropical taxa and ecological, evolutionary, and conservation research, reflecting our diverse authorship and readership.
In 2023, we advertised the first Open Call for service on our Editorial Board. The response was overwhelmingly positive. In the end, we selected 14 new Subject Editors from a very qualified pool (Figure 1). Please join us in welcoming our new Subject Editors and thanking those who are rotating off the Editorial Board. The Open Call for editorial service will be an annual call, so please consider serving on our Board.
期刊介绍:
Ranked by the ISI index, Biotropica is a highly regarded source of original research on the ecology, conservation and management of all tropical ecosystems, and on the evolution, behavior, and population biology of tropical organisms. Published on behalf of the Association of Tropical Biology and Conservation, the journal''s Special Issues and Special Sections quickly become indispensable references for researchers in the field. Biotropica publishes timely Papers, Reviews, Commentaries, and Insights. Commentaries generate thought-provoking ideas that frequently initiate fruitful debate and discussion, while Reviews provide authoritative and analytical overviews of topics of current conservation or ecological importance. The newly instituted category Insights replaces Short Communications.
