Now that Transactions 11 is complete, we are ready to embark on work for Transactions 12. As always, the GOSA Transactions relies on submissions by GOSA associates. We welcome articles of any length, from a one-page short summary study to in-depth analyses and historical articles. The dissemination of information about geysers and their activity is a major part of GOSA's mission, and the Transactions is the archival and scientific journal for such purposes.

We thank those of you who have already submitted articles and article ideas, and encourage anyone who has not already contacted us to please do so as soon as possible. We have set a submission deadline of June 1, 2011.

As in the past, we will be looking for readers to review articles. Whether you are someone who has done this in the past or someone new who is willing to volunteer, your help will be greatly needed and appreciated. The review process will take place during the summer of 2011.

We have made available an example Transactions article available in Adobe PDF format here, or in Microsoft Word format here.

The Transactions editors may be reached at the GOSA address, transactions@gosa.org. We also hope to have information for Transactions authors such as Submission Guidelines, Citation Style information, and example articles available on the GOSA website soon. We will be working with GOSA's webmaster, Don Might, on creating a Transactions page. We hope that this will smooth the way for our authors and attract new authors to write for the Transactions.
