The special issue Nitrogen & Global Change in Biogeosciences (http://www.biogeosciences.net/special_issue93.html) is coming along nicely, with 14 papers already published in BG and more in review and planned for submission. We anticipate a total volume of more than 40-50 papers once all submissions have gone through peer review and have been thoroughly evaluated.

One Thousand Cranes for Japan

Dear colleagues, we all have heard about the earthquake and Tsunami in Japan, and in the course of preparing for the Nitrogen & Global Change event have been in touch with colleagues from Japan, some of them could not make it to the event due to the substantial damages caused to infrastructure and every day life.

We would like to let you know about an initiative that we feel is worth supporting, One Thousand Cranes for Japan, and we are sure that our friends and colleagues in Japan would much appreciate your support.
