[MARMAM] Alliance & EAAM cosponsor Aquatic Mammals

[Jeanette A Thomas]

At the invitation of the European Association for Aquatic Mammals (EAAM), the
Board of the Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks and Aquariums has agreed that the
Alliance will become a co-sponsor of Aquatic Mammals, the oldest international
scientific, peer-reviewed marine mammal journal.  It has been supported by the
EAAM since 1972.

Aquatic Mammals accepts a wide variety of papers on the care, conservation,
medicine, and science of marine mammals.  The number of papers submitted for
review has risen dramatically in recent years, and, in response, the journal
increased its annual issues from three to four in 2005.  Dr. Jeanette Thomas
of Western Illinois University is the editor and Kathleen Dudzinski of Mystic
Aquarium the co-editor.

Dan Odell of the Alliance has agreed to join the publication’s editorial board.

Subscription information can be found on the journal’s Web site, which is at:
