C) Current Structure of the SSSA

Below please find a letter from Dr. Singer regarding the current SSSA structure. Our S-1 Board representative David Nofziger would appreciate your thoughts and inputs to prepare for the Board meeting in Denver. Please email him directly to: dln@okstate.edu

Colleagues,

From time to time over the 35 years I have been a member of the society, discussion has occurred about our internal organization, number of divisions and names of divisions. The issue was raised again at the July Executive committee meeting. The S201 committee (Organization, policy and bylaws) will look at this issue and I want to begin a dialog prior to our meeting in Denver.
The basic question is: Is the current organization of 11 divisions providing the best service to our members? A second question is: Does this structure provide the best opportunity to expand membership and opportunities for non-members?

One item that has instigated this discussion is the existence of A and S divisions called environmental quality. With the advent of the S division, the number of papers in A decreased greatly. Are we best served by two divisions?

One of my goals during this year has been to reach out to our colleagues, the consulting soil scientists, and to provide them with more value in SSSA membership. Are we best organized to achieve this goal?
Our journal, our board representation and our meetings are organized around the division structure, so any change will have major implications for how we do business. I encourage you to ponder these questions, to "converse" electronically and to include me in some of your discussions. I hope that we might arrive at some consensus prior to the meeting in Denver.

Thank you, Michael J. Singer.

D) New issue of Vadose Zone Journal (VZJ):

A new issue of Vadose Zone Journal (VZJ) appeared on August 15. The issue contains 18 papers dealing with such topics as geologic carbon sequestration, field-scale infiltration, the hydraulic properties of anisotropic soils and gravels, preferential flow, soil vapor extraction, residual DNAPL measurements, the dual-probe heat pulse method, and the use of several geophysical methods (ERT, EM, and TDT). Also included is a review on the fate and transport of fumigant pesticides. Please visit www.vadosezonejournal.org for details. Notice that you can freely download pdf reprints of all papers, assuming you have a subscription (only $50!).

The next issue of VZJ will appear November 15 and will contain close to 40 papers. Approximately 25 of these comprise a very impressive special section entitled, "Advances in Vadose Zone Measurement and Monitoring Methods" edited by Ty Ferre and Gerard Kluitenberg. Papers in this special issue address new technologies for nondestructive measurement of heat and mass transfer. The papers stem from a symposium at the last year's annual SSSA meetings in Indianapolis (November 10-14, 2002) entitled, "Physical Measurements in the Soil-Plant-Atmosphere System: I. Advances in Measurements at and Below the Ground Surface - A Tribute to Clarke Topp". Future special sections will focus on colloid and colloid-facilitated transport (resulting from a workshop in Denmark last year), subsurface flow/transport at DOE's INEEL site in Idaho, and uncertainty in unsaturated zone flow and transport processes (stemming from a 2002 AGU symposium).

If you have not already done so, I urge you to get a personal subscription to VZJ. Individual subscriptions are a very modest $50 for SSSA, ASA and GSA members, and $75 for nonmembers. Equally or more important is enticing your university or institution to subscribe to VZJ. Institutional subscriptions this year are a very meager $204; next year they will become $300. Free sample issues can be previewed at www.vadosezonejournal.org. Contact SSSA at 608-273-8095 or go to www.vadosezonejournal.org/subscriptions/ to subscribe.

Thanks, Rien van Genuchten.

E) Manuscript Submission to the SSSAJ:

There are still a lot of hardcopy manuscripts submitted to the Soil Science Society of America Journal for the soil physics section, but uploaded pdf files allow for more rapid review. Because of symbol definitions, Microsoft Word is needed for acceptable pdf files and is preferred by headquarters. Word Perfect is not recommended because the fonts are not embeddable within pdf files (due to the license agreement).

For the review process in SSSAJ, prepare your Word file with all Figures embedded. Then if you want help converting to pdf, e-mail the Word file to me. I can convert it to pdf for you, and e-mail back to you for uploading.

Sally Logsdon, technical editor, SSSAJ, soil physics
