AI tools can benefit authors by improving the language of scientific material including peer-reviewed publications. Despite assisting with the production of scientific material, the meteoric rise in AI tools have prompted concerns on whether their use is appropriate and ethical. This webinar will introduce how AI tools are currently applied in scientific publishing, highlight the key questions shadowing their use, and explore what this means for EGU journals and beyond.

To accept or not to accept: what makes a good scientific editor?

As an author, you will sooner or later come across the scientific editor: the gatekeeper of scientific journals. As such, the editor holds a key role in the publishing process, seeking to maximize the best parts of the author’s experience and implementing an unbiased peer-review process that follows rigorous standards. They are often experienced scientists and acknowledged experts in their field who ensure that the presented research is of high quality, scientifically sound, and of interest to the journal audience. If you have ever wondered how you can get involved as an editor in one of EGU’s open-access journals, look no further and join us for this webinar that puts the editor in the spotlight!
