LE CLIMATOSCOPE #05
The scientific committee of Le Climatoscope, a French-language popular scientific journal on climate change, is currently inviting submissions for its Fall 2023 issue.
To mark the journal’s 5th anniversary, the issue will be launched at the Adaptation Futures 2023 conference organized by Ouranos in partnership with the Government of Canada and the World Adaptation Science Programme (WASP), to be held from October 2 to 6, 2023, in Montreal.
Adaptation to climate change is a main focus of the issue, and we particularly welcome proposals for articles on themes such as: risk management, resilience, local and indigenous knowledge, loss and damage, equity and justice, nature-based solutions, finance and governance.
This 5th anniversary issue, produced in collaboration with the ministère des Relations internationales et de la Francophonie du Québec (MRIF) (Ministry of Foreign Affairs), seeks to highlight international scientific production, and will appear in both English and French editions. We welcome proposals for articles in either language and Le Climatoscope team will assure translation of all accepted papers.
To submit a proposal
Authors are invited to submit an abstract of 150 to 200 words by December 17th, 2022, by email to: leclimatoscope@usherbrooke.ca. If your abstract is accepted, the deadline for submitting a completed article between 1,500 and 2,500 words in length is March 1, 2023.
Are you a student?
The journal includes a section “Les jeunes pousses” (“budding scientist”), which highlights master’s and doctoral dissertations on climate issues. Email your work to leclimatoscope@usherbrooke.ca, and our team will write a compelling summary for inclusion in the issue.
The review process
Le Climatoscope employs a peer-review process where author and reviewer are anonymous to each other. All submissions will be reviewed by the journal’s scientific committee and by two external reviewers.
