Manuscript Tools — Eos
Guide for Authors
Revised 22 April 2009
This REVISED Guide for Authors details the new requirements for Eos manuscripts.
Goals
The primary goal of Eos is to forge strong interdisciplinary ties within AGU. Eos publishes timely articles, news items, meeting summaries, and other material of interest to the full range of Earth and space scientists. Such items concisely analyze or synthesize scientific activities, significant geophysical events, major scientific discoveries, or current scientific controversies and place them in perspective for readers in all geoscience fields. Eos does not publish original research results; authors may want to consider submitting such materials to AGU journals.
Eos is expected to:
- keep readers informed about developments in their own and other fields and about AGU,
- be of interest to a large proportion of AGU members,
- be thought-provoking and interesting to read, and
- be newsworthy.
Eos is a newspaper, not a research journal. Items in Eos require a writing style that is news-oriented and accessible to a broad audience. When preparing an article for Eos, the author must keep in mind that readers are not necessarily familiar with the manuscript's topic.
Eos does not consider or accept manuscripts that have previously been published or that are being considered by other publications.
