Invitation to submit to a special issue in Biogeochemistry: Incorporating Enzymes and Microbial Physiology into Biogeochemical Models

The Enzymes in the Environment RCN has selected Biogeochemistry as the outlet for the special issue related to the workshop, and the chief editor has enthusiastically approved our proposal.  We anticipate 2-4 perspective/review papers to anchor the issue, and hope for several data and modeling submissions as well. We want you to submit your best work to what will be a high-profile, highly cited issue.  


Why submit to this special issue?
-Higher visibility (papers appearing in special issues get many more views and citations)
-We will help to coordinate the papers so that they complement each other, and cite each other.  When your paper is published, it may already have several citations.
-Rapid review:  We will enlist other contributors to help review your paper rapidly.  Your paper will be published online as soon as it is accepted, so it will not be held up by other papers in the issue.

We have established a tentative deadline of October 15th, 2012.  The issue will be open to contributions from non-workshop participants.
