The Ecological Society of America home page http://esa.sdsc.edu/ links to an electronic journal called Conservation Ecology, found at http://www.consecol.org/Journal.
"Conservation Ecology is an electronic, peer-reviewed, scientific journal devoted to the rapid dissemination of current research. Content of the journal ranges from the applied to the theoretical. Topics covered include the ecological bases for:
· the conservation of ecosystems, landscapes, species, populations, and genetic diversity;
· the restoration of ecosystems and habitats; and
· the management of resources.
Papers are encouraged on the above topics that also integrate the biological and physical sciences, the natural and social sciences, science and policy, and those that develop analyses across space and time scales. The papers considered for publication should present original research, novel synthesis, or judicious review of current theory, method, policy, or practice. Article submission, review, and publication are accomplished entirely electronically.
Conservation Ecology is published continuously on the Internet. As articles are accepted, they are published in an "Issue in Progress." At intervals the Issue in Progress will be declared, simply, a New Issue. The table of contents of the new issue will be sent by e-mail to each subscriber as soon as the issue is declared complete. During the current year, a new issue will be declared every six months. Abstracts of Conservation Ecology articles appear in Biological Abstracts and in Zoological Record."
