Celebrate Ecological Research by Women

Inspired by this blog post by our friends at ASLO, ESA is compiling research submitted by ecologists from historically underrepresented communities to spotlight their contributions to our science, and their contributions to ESA and society. We will continuously update this resource as work is shared with us, so let us know about scientists whose work we should feature!

Tell us about great papers and other great contributions to the science! You can reply to us on Twitter or use this form:

Journals & Publications

Explore ESA's publishing program

The Ecological Society of America has over 100 years of journal publishing history and offers some of the most widely read and cited journals in the field of ecology. The seven journals in our portfolio encompass a wide range of paper types to include an array of aims and scope of study, making them an important and accessible outlet for scientists, researchers, practitioners, professionals, citizen scientists, and others seeking to publish their work. ESA staff provide editorial support with our publishing partner, John Wiley & Sons, and several discounts towards publication in ESA journals are available from our publisher and from ESA. Publishing in ESA journals contributes to ESA programs for students, early career researchers, and underrepresented groups, and we thank our editors, reviewers, authors, and readers for their support.
