Vanessa Bailey Joins Editorial Board of Soil Biology and Biochemistry
Congratulations to FSD's Vanessa Bailey for her recent appointment to the Editorial Board of Soil Biology and Biochemistry, a leading journal that is a forum for research on soil organisms, their biochemical activities and their influence on the soil environment and plant growth. Publication themes include the biochemistry of pesticide and pollution decomposition in soil, microbial aspects of soil pollution, the composition of soil populations, modeling of biological processes in soil systems and the biochemical activities of soil organisms.
As a member, Vanessa will referee submissions and help monitor the journal's editorial policy in terms of scope covered and paper quality. She was chosen for this position because of her scientific reputation as a soil microbiologist and her thorough approach to manuscript review.
