A Position Report on Publications

This newsletter is a report on IAG and IAG-related publications. IAG encourages its members to follow the editorial policy described below and to use international reviewers whenever feasible. IAG publications are classified according to the following categories.

  1. Conference Research Monographs. The monographs include peer-reviewed papers which have been given at the main congresses of the IAG. Starting from the Fourth International Conference at Bologna, Italy in 1997, these volumes will be co-ordinated by the Executive Committee of the IAG.
  2. Conference Abstract Volumes. These include conference programmes, abstracts and lists of participants of all official IAG meetings. These are edited by local organization committees.
  3. Conference Research Paper Collection. This is the outflow of symposia, workshops and individual sessions published in single issues of a peer-reviewed international journal.
  4. IAG Publication Series. Volumes in this series are major publications of international interest.
  5. IAG Special Series. This is a collection of classical papers translated from other languages to English, and developed in collaboration with the British Geomorphological Research Group.
  6. Newsletter. Series F is the IAG Newsletter, published four times a year.
  7. Field Guides. All field guides prepared for field trips in connection with IAG conferences are included in this category.
  8. Miscellaneous Conference Related Publications. These are publications of various types produced for IAG conferences, including regional geomorphological accounts and reports on geomorphological research in the countries represented in the IAG.
  9. IAG Reports. IAG Reports contain material and information related to IAG committee matters.
All publications currently need to be authorised before printing by both the President and the Publication Secretary of the IAG. Publication is approved under the following conditions:

  1. IAG is acknowledged on a separate title sheet on which is printed the IAG logo, the editor's name, and the title, theme, date and place of the conference (if relevant);
  2. the reviewers are listed on the back of this title sheet;
  3. IAG receives royalties from the publication, or in case of a journal, usually a donation.
The Treasurer has to be informed of the arrangements and to approve the final contract.
