Journal Guide

JAAS is a peer reviewed journal of area studies recognized for consistent scholarly contributions to cutting-edge issues and debates. The journal welcomes articles, research communications, and book reviews that focus on the dynamics of global change and development of Asian and African nations, societies, cultures, and the global community.

The Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics provides a journal format for the publication of novel cellular, molecular, genetic, and epigenetic findings that advance our understanding of the biology of human gametes and preimplantation embryos. The goal is to optimize and facilitate the translation of discoveries made from human or relevant animal model experimentation to the safe and efficacious practice of human assisted reproductive technologies within a scientifically rigorous and ethically sound set of standards established by the editorial leadership of JARG. The expertise, sensitivity and commitment of the editorial board guides the marriage of contemporary research paradigms with basic science discovery in the form of original papers, minireviews and other special topic opportunities made available to an international audience of reproductive scientists who have a keen interest in the biology of human gametes and embryos. The guiding principles of male and female reproductive health that impact

Journal of Astrophysics & Astronomy, a quarterly journal in English, is published by the Indian Academy of Sciences. It publishes papers on all aspects of Astrophysics and Astronomy, including Instrumentation.

The National Athletic Trainers’ Association (NATA) is the professional membership association for certified athletic trainers and others who support the athletic training profession. Founded in 1950, the NATA has grown to more than 30,000 members worldwide today. The majority of certified athletic trainers choose to be members of the NATA – to support their profession, and to receive a broad array of membership benefits.By joining forces as a group, NATA members can accomplish more for the athletic training profession than they can individually.

The Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry is devoted to the study of the chemistry of the Earth's atmosphere, with particular emphasis on the region below about 100 km. The strongly interdisciplinary nature of atmospheric chemistry means that it embraces a great variety of sciences, but the journal concentrates on such topics as: Observational, interpretative and modeling studies of the composition of air and precipitation and the physiochemical processes in the Earth's atmosphere, excluding air pollution problems of local importance only; the role of the atmosphere in biogeochemical cycles; the chemical interaction of the oceans, land surface and biosphere with the atmosphere; laboratory studies of the mechanics in homogeneous and heterogeneous transformation processes in the atmosphere; descriptions of major advances in instrumentation developed for the measurement of atmospheric composition and chemical properties.

Research describing instrumentation and methodologies used in atmospheric and oceanic research, including remote sensing instruments, measurements, validation, and data analysis techniques from satellites, aircraft, balloons, and surface-based platforms; in situ instruments, measurements, and methods for data acquisition, analysis, and interpretation; and information systems and algorithms.

The Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics is an international journal concerned with the inter-disciplinary science of the Sun-Earth connection, defined very broadly. The journal referees and publishes original research papers, using rigorous standards of review, and focusing on the following:

• The results of experiments and their interpretations, and results of theoretical or modelling studies;
• Papers dealing with remote sensing carried out from the ground or space and with in situ studies made from rockets or from satellites orbiting the Earth;

and,

• Plans for future research, often carried out within programs of international scope.

The Journal also encourages papers involving:

• Large scale collaborations, especially those with an international perspective;
• Rapid communications;
• Papers dealing with novel techniques or methodologies;
• Commissioned review papers on topical subjects and tutorial reviews;

and,

• Special issues arising from chosen scientific symposia or workshops.

The journal covers the physical processes operating in the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, ionosphere, magnetosphere, the Sun, interplanetary medium, and heliosphere. Phenomena occurring in other "spheres", solar influences on climate, and supporting laboratory measurements are also considered. The journal deals especially with the coupling between the different regions.

Solar flares, coronal mass ejections, and other energetic events on the Sun create interesting and important perturbations in the near-Earth space environment. The physics of this subject, now termed "space weather", is central to the Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics and the journal welcomes papers that lead in the direction of a predictive understanding of the coupled system. Regarding the upper atmosphere, the subjects of aeronomy, geomagnetism and geoelectricity, auroral phenomena, radio wave propagation, and plasma instabilities, are examples within the broad field of solar-terrestrial physics which emphasise the energy exchange between the solar wind, the magnetospheric and ionospheric plasmas, and the neutral gas. In the lower atmosphere, topics covered range from mesoscale to global scale dynamics, to atmospheric electricity, lightning and its effects, and to anthropogenic changes. Helpful, novel schematic diagrams are encouraged. Short animations and ancillary data sets can also be accommodated. Prospective authors should review the Instructions to Authors at the back of each issue.

As research in the field of attention grows, so does your need to keep up with the latest developments. What better source than the Journal of Attention Disorders, the only journal devoted exclusively to research and clinical issues related to attention?Journal of Attention Disorders provides an objective and widely diverse cross section of studies written by leaders in the field of attention. Included are articles on Diagnosis Comorbidity Neuropsychological functioning Psychopharmacology Classroom management strategies Parent training Behavioral assessment Diet Family therapy And other areas relevant to attention problems in children, adolescents, and youth.
