Reference Management Tools: EndNote, Papers, Zotero, Mendeley, BibDesk Geoscience Information Society (GSIS) -- Open Access in the Geosciences http://www.geoinfo.org/openaccess.html Contact Us | Site Index | Home About Us Leadership OPEN ACCESS IN THE GEOSCIENCES Publications Open access is the practice of providing free, unrestricted access to research results and literature. It means that research results can be read by anyone at any time without having to go to a library that subscribes to a journal or request it through interlibrary loan. Communications Many Federal funding agencies are requiring grant recipients to provide open access to their research results by publishing in open journals or paying to provide open access to their articles. Many publishers offer an open access option for a fee. GSIS Meetings members have developed tables providing information on Options for Open Access Publishing in the Geosciences and Open Access Journals in the Geosciences. Awards Why is open access important? The cost of journals and serials has increased much faster than the rate of inflation. As a result, Libraries can no longer afford to buy all of the journals needed to support teaching and research by faculty. Government Geoscience agencies provide research grants to promote scientific discovery and innovation and improve the economy. More people Resources benefit if the results of that research is available to the widest possible audience. Historical More often than not, people are turning to the Internet for information. While the Internet can be searched to provide almost Information immediate information on a topic, that information may not be scientifically sound. For example, an openly accessible Heritage Foundation report on climate change states: “The persistence of coral reefs through geologic time . provides substantive evidence that these marine entities can successfully adapt to a dramatically changing global environment. (1)” This statement ignores the fact that some corals in the fossil record no longer exist. The scietific articles that might refute this statement are not openly accessible. The scientific articles that might refute this statement are not openly accessible. Shouldn’t the evidence be available for everyone to read? Researchers can promote open access by publishing in open access journals, paying open access publishing fees, posting or depositing preprints (copies of articles submitted to journals) or postprints (copies of the article after peer review) on their web sites or in institutional repositories, managing their copyright to ensure that they retain some rights to their work, and complying with (and encouraging) open access policies.

Predatory Publishers The growth of open access had spawned the development of a new kind of publisher, known as Predatory Publishers, that exist to generate revenue from author fees paid by unsuspecting authors.

    Dr Jorge Mataix-Solera Department of Agrochemistry and Environment Universidad Miguel Hernández Avda de la Universidad s/n. Edificio Alcudia 03202. Elche, Alicante Spain Tel 966658334, Fax: 966658340 [email protected] www.jorgemataix.com Dear colleagues On 18 February 2017, an anonymous report by the pseudonym "Akhenaten McDonald" about scientific misconduct was distributed widely amongst the scientific community. This report was trigged by the unusually high impact factor of Land Degradation and Development and aimed to provide evidence for scientific misconduct (artificial inflation of citations and journal impact factor). It highlights the activity of an alleged "citation cartel" involving five editors and five journals, and lists a further three editors and authors as having potentially “dubious” involvement. Whilst not accused as being part of the citation cartel, my name appears under potentially “dubious” involvement and I therefore feel the need to respond to this serious and potentially damaging accusation. My name appears in the report because (i) I co-authored some papers with other researchers that also appear in the mentioned report as having inflated citations and (ii) I am Executive Editor of SOIL, which is one of the journals listed as potentially involved in the citation cartel. The report states that in my case, my participation in that malpractice was dubious (i.e. doubtful), and no meaningful evidence is given of my potential involvement. However, the anonymous author(s) did include my name and that of other colleagues in the report with seemingly little regard to what damage that may be causing to our prestige and reputation. Some damage has unfortunately been done already.

  • Interactive Open Access Publishing and Peer Review: the Effectiveness and Perspectives of Transparency and Self-Regulation in Scientific Communication and Evaluation
    LIBER QUARTERLY 19 (3/4), February 2010 – ISSN: 1435-5205. P293–314 http://liber.library.uu.nl/ Igitur, Utrecht Publishing & Archiving Services This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License Interactive Open Access Publishing and Peer Review: The Effectiveness and Perspectives of Transparency and Self-Regulation in Scientific Communication and Evaluation Ulrich Pöschl Max Planck Institute for Chemistry, Mainz, Germany, [email protected] Abstract The traditional forms of scientific publishing and peer review do not live up to the demands of efficient communication and quality assurance in today’s highly diverse and rapidly evolving world of science. They need to be advanced by interactive and transparent forms of review, publication and discussion that are open to the scientific community and to the public. The advantages of open access, public peer review and interactive discussion can be efficiently and flexibly combined with the strengths of traditional publishing and peer review. Since 2001 the viability of this approach is demonstrated by the highly suc- cessful interactive open access journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (ACP) and a growing number of sister journals of the European Geosciences Union (EGU) and Copernicus Publications. The achievements and statistics of these journals and their publishers clearly prove both the scientific benefits and the financial sustainability of open access. Future -per spectives are outlined with regard to critical rationalism, open societies and the global information commons. Key Words: scientific quality assurance; open peer review; collaborative peer review; open peer commentary Liber Quarterly Volume 19 Issue 3/4 2010 293 Interactive Open Access Publishing and Peer Review 1.
