A gentle reminder that for this journal (and many others) the EIC and Managing Editor don't have any authority or rights over what the publisher charges or how they configure their emails. That's not a complaint, simply a reminder that queries about those have to be sent to the publishing company.

Been awhile since I've been posting on this account; busy field season and now teaching - not a bad thing but it does mean I've been away from this account for months

Reminder that this is run by Stephen Murphy, EIC of the journal. Main account is smurph (yes, smurph) on bluesky.

I'm getting through another cadre of new followers. Once again for the newer folks, this account is run by the EIC of Restoration Ecology (Stephen Murphy). I've been a bit occupied as the Managing Editor (Dr. Valter Amaral) & I have been addressing a lot of tech issues with our publisher's site.

As I continue to catch up with follow-backs, a gentle reminder that I tend to not do so if there is no legit picture, bio or any posts yet. One has to be careful. In many cases, I know the person in realspace and that they do have a bsky account & that helps.

@jamiepengilley.bsky.social Thanks for following RE, Jamie!

The yearly conundrum: People send in MS, should we send for reviewers w/ 10 days before holidays in many places? We did send out - to be kind to authors. But we added a note on our boilerplate reviewer-ask saying we know this is close to holidays for many & ignore the usual 3-4 week ask.

Between the real me and this account, it's hard to keep up!

Once late term madness ends, I'll catch up though.

The @merlin-project.bsky.social seeks for people to fill a questionnaire on training material on restoration of freshwater ecosystems. Take this chance - the deadline is set for November 30th.

Like the other me (smurph.bsky.social) says: If I have not followed back yet, don't hesitate ping at either one of me/us/whichever 🌎🙃

Of course, like my personal account, it will take me awhile to catch up on follow-backs. Please bear with me. It does not help that I have a partially torn rotator cuff (me, not the journal, LOL).

While I am on a posting mini-frenzy (finally!) as the RE EIC here, I have figured out how to more easily switch between smurph and RE accounts. More posts to follow. Anyone who publishes in RE - or related journals (I support all) - do tag both the RE and smurph accounts so I can re-skeet.

Thanks to @wagnermarkus.bsky.social for creating the restoration starter pack. My doppelganger @smurph.bsky.social followed all. Now the journal does too. If you have any interest in restoration ecology, follow me (us? it gets so confusing...). I (we?) will follow back.

- RE aka smurph the EIC.

Time to post some actual content. We have a special feature in our current full issue from the 2019 Royal Society meeting on 'Restoration - Ready for Action'. It has Suding, Higgs, Hobbs, Harris, Holl, Dudney, @lars-brudvig.bsky.social & so many more. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/1526100x...

Restoration Ecology - the journal itself - is now on Bluesky. Bear with me (as in Stephen Murphy, EIC, the person running this account) as I generate some content
