Publishing a Special Issue of Reports from the volcano observatories in Latin America Editorial to Special Issue on Volcano Observatories in Latin America
Main Article Content
Abstract
Peer-reviewed publications are the most common way of sharing scientific knowledge internationally. Volcanica is the only fully diamond open access journal in volcanology, publishing peer-reviewed articles without costs to authors or readers. As part of our wider journal mission, Volcanica also aims to address some of the biggest barriers in research publication and to increase accessibility to published, written research outputs. In this Editorial, we discuss Volcanica’s latest venture: to publish a complete Special Issue of Reports—one of our flagship publication formats designed specifically for cutting edge, direct observations from volcanoes—and to do so in both English and Spanish languages.
Las publicaciones revisadas por pares son la forma más común de compartir el conocimiento científico a nivel internacional. Volcanica es la única revista de tipo “diamond open access” en volcanología que publica artículos revisados por pares sin ningún costo para los autores o lectores. Volcanica también tiene como objetivos reducir algunas de las mayores barreras de las publicaciones científicas y aumentar la accesibilidad a los resultados de las investigaciones publicadas. En este editorial, analizamos la última aventura de Volcanica: publicar un número especial constituido íntegramente por Reportes –uno de nuestros formatos de publicación insignia, diseñado específicamente para observaciones directas y de vanguardia sobre volcanes– en los idiomas inglés y español.
