Editorial Structure

Editorial Board

Soil Research is guided by an Editorial Board which comprises two co-Editors-in-Chief and a team of Associate Editors.

The co-Editors-in-Chief are appointed by the Publisher following approval by the Board of Standards established between CSIRO and the Australian Academy of Science.  An overview of this partnership can be found on the CSIRO Publishing website. The co-Editors-in-Chief are appointed to lead and manage the Editorial Board, advocate for the journal to the research community, attract and select high-quality content for the journal and ensure high standards of publication ethics are maintained.

Associate Editors are selected by the co-Editors-in-Chief. Selection of Associate Editors is based on expertise in key areas of the journal’s scope and active participation internationally in their area of expertise. The co-Editors-in-Chief work with the Publisher towards securing a diverse Editorial Board through actively seeking editors from a range of backgrounds and cultures, paying close attention to gender, ethnicity, career stage and geographical diversity.

Associate Editors are appointed for a set term which may be renewed upon agreement by the Associate Editor, co-Editors-in-Chief and the Publisher.

Acceptance of papers is undertaken by the team of Associate Editors under the guidance of the co-Editors-in-Chief. The journal’s policies on peer review can be found on the journal website.
