Journal Editor Gives Keynote Address in Taiwan
 Tim
Keener, Editor-in-Chief of the Journal and professor
of civil and environmental engineering at the University of
Cincinnati, recently made a trip to Taiwan where he gave the
keynote address to the 19th Annual Technical Conference of
the Chinese Institute of Environmental Engineering, held at
the National University of Kaohsiung.
His presentation, "Thoughts on the Potential Impacts of
Climate Change on Air Quality," outlined ways that global
climate change will affect the environment, precipitation,
water availability, air pollution control, air quality
management, and people’s lives.

Another Successful Year, Thanks to Our Peer-Reviewers
It is always our great pleasure to be
able to thank the hundreds of volunteer peer reviewers who
help ensure the quality and integrity of the Journal of
the Air & Waste Management Association. We simply could
not be successful in our jobs as editors without their
dedication and commitment to unselfishly giving back to the
scientific community. The January issue is dedicated to the
reviewers who contributed to the Journal in 2007.
With the number of manuscripts the Journal receives
each year, we are always in need of additional qualified
reviewers. Please contact either of us directly to become a
peer reviewer for the Journal, and encourage your
colleagues to do the same.
Last year was another productive year for the Journal.
We published 136 articles on a range of interesting research
topics, including the 2007 Critical Review on the history of
U.S. national ambient air quality standards. (For those who
missed John Bachmann’s presentation of the review at the
Annual Conference last June,

entertaining song on the Clean Air Act.) We also registered
the Journal with
CrossRef, a citation-linking network that will help
broaden the reach of articles published in the Journal.
In addition, we are excited to announce that, in concert
with A&WMA’s 100th anniversary last year, the Association
had all back issues of the Journal scanned into PDF
format. The archived materials were added to the
A&WMA Online
Library as they became available in 2007. By the time
you read this, all Journal articles published since
1951—with a few possible exceptions—should be available for
search and download in the library.
Finally, we would like to express our sincere gratitude and
thanks to Bill Nazaroff, Professor of Environmental
Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, who
“retired” as a Journal Associate Editor in December
after 12 years. Bill’s efforts and insights over the years
are one of the main reasons the Journal is as well
respected as it is today.
