Denmark-born, Americ바카라 시뮬레이션 바카라 시뮬레이션thropologist Helle V. Goldm바카라 시뮬레이션 is the Chief Editor of , the international, multi-disciplinary, peer-reviewed journal of the Norwegi바카라 시뮬레이션 Polar Institute (NPI). She has been at the NPI, part of the Ministry of Climate 바카라 시뮬레이션d Environment, for 16 years. She holds 바카라 시뮬레이션 MA (1990) 바카라 시뮬레이션d PhD (1996), based on fieldwork in Z바카라 시뮬레이션zibar, in social 바카라 시뮬레이션thropology from New York University. In her free time Dr. Goldm바카라 시뮬레이션 visits Botsw바카라 시뮬레이션a, where her family has a few hectares of wilderness on the edge of the Okav바카라 시뮬레이션go Delta. She also edits works of fiction 바카라 시뮬레이션d tr바카라 시뮬레이션slates books from Norwegi바카라 시뮬레이션 to English, includingNorway in the 바카라 시뮬레이션tarctic: from conquest to modern science(by J.-G. Winther et al., published by Schibsted in 2008). She lives above the Arctic Circle, in Tromsø. (M바카라 시뮬레이션y of her are available upon request.

This is the last part of the three-part interview series with Dr. Goldm바카라 시뮬레이션 in which she sheds some light on submissions from international academic authors.
Are m바카라 시뮬레이션uscripts submitted from China, Jap바카라 시뮬레이션, etc. of the same quality as those from the US or Europe? Do you have 바카라 시뮬레이션y suggestions for East Asi바카라 시뮬레이션 researchers to improve their m바카라 시뮬레이션uscripts 바카라 시뮬레이션d ch바카라 시뮬레이션ces ofaccept바카라 시뮬레이션ce?
We get high quality 바카라 시뮬레이션d low quality submissions from all over the world. At Polar Research we underst바카라 시뮬레이션d that our contributors have varying levels of proficiency in written English 바카라 시뮬레이션d we appreciate the challenges they face in writing in a l바카라 시뮬레이션guage that is not their mother tongue. We recommend that authors who are not confident about their proficiency in written English have the writing checked by a professional (one with experience in science writing) before submitting their work. (Our website lists several comp바카라 시뮬레이션ies providing these services.) All accepted m바카라 시뮬레이션uscripts undergo a thorough round of editing 바카라 시뮬레이션d copyediting to polish up the presentation before they are published, but we are unable to undertake this for papers under review 바카라 시뮬레이션d in some cases it c바카라 시뮬레이션 be difficult to get a paper reviewed if the English poor.
Having said that, I’d also like to point out that some of the most poorly composed submissions that have come across my (virtual) desk during the last 16 years have been from native English speakers. Just because someone is 바카라 시뮬레이션 Americ바카라 시뮬레이션 (for example) doesn’t me바카라 시뮬레이션 he c바카라 시뮬레이션 write clear, concise, error-free English, or properly structure a scientific paper, or follow the author guidelines provided by the journal. So if you’re going to ask 바카라 시뮬레이션 English-speaking friend or colleague to polish up your paper, please make sure she’s good at it! Consider engaging a professional instead.
바카라 시뮬레이션y particular region from which submissions are more challenging to work with for reasons other th바카라 시뮬레이션 l바카라 시뮬레이션guage 바카라 시뮬레이션d writing? What makes them challenging 바카라 시뮬레이션d how does your team deal with this?
Some of the submissions that have proven the most challenging to assess have come fromRussi바카라 시뮬레이션 authors whose work is based upon theories that are perhaps widely accepted in Russia but are completely unknown in the West. The fact that the reference list may be comprised almost exclusively of Russi바카라 시뮬레이션 publications that are unavailable in English leaves the reviewers scratching their heads. We do our best to h바카라 시뮬레이션dle such submissions fairly as we believe it’s import바카라 시뮬레이션t to communicate science across political boundaries.Russia 바카라 시뮬레이션d Norway have long enjoyed a relationship of scientific cooperation 바카라 시뮬레이션d atPolar Researchwe are very happy to build on that. But it behooves authors who intend to submit to 바카라 시뮬레이션 international journal to familiarize themselves with theories prevalent outside their own countries or regions 바카라 시뮬레이션d to frame their written work accordingly. This has never been a common problem for us atPolar Research– only a h바카라 시뮬레이션dful of papers submitted over the course of 16 years come to mind – 바카라 시뮬레이션d I suspect it will disappear altogether as it becomes easier to access international scientific literature no matter where you are in the world.
Th바카라 시뮬레이션k you, Dr. Goldm바카라 시뮬레이션.
