Question: Who is the editor of the scientific journal published by the Acoustical Society of America?
Context: Larry Humes is a Distinguished Professor of Hearing Sciences at Indiana University Bloomington.  Dr. Humes completed his undergraduate work in 1975 at Purdue University, which was followed by a master's degree from Central Michigan University in 1976, and, finally, a doctorate from Northwestern University in 1979.  After an eight-year tenure as a faculty member at Vanderbilt University, he came to Indiana University in 1996.  Dr. Humes has been a prolific researcher in the fields of audiology and hearing sciences, publishing over 160 papers and giving over 230 presentations on his research worldwide.  Much of his research in recent years has focused on evaluating treatment for speech-perception deficits, age-related changes to auditory perception and outcome measures for hearing aids.  For his research, he has been honored numerous times by different organizations.  He serves as a Fellow of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association and the Acoustical Society of America.  Additionally, he has received the Alfred E. Kawana Award for Lifetime Achievement from the ASHA and the James Jerger Career Award and Presidential Award from the American Academy of Audiology.  Throughput his career, Dr. Humes has served on a variety of editorial board for peer reviewed journals.  These include the "Journal of the American Academy of Audiology", "Australian Journal of Audiology", "Journal of Speech", "Language and Hearing Research", and "American Journal of Audiology". Philosophical Transactions, titled Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society (Phil.  Trans.)  from 1776, is a scientific journal published by the Royal Society.  In its earliest days, it was a private venture of the Royal Society's secretary.  It became an official society publication in 1752.  It was established in 1665, making it the first journal in the world exclusively devoted to science, and therefore also the world's longest-running scientific journal.  The use of the word "Philosophical" in the title refers to "natural philosophy", which was the equivalent of what would now be generally called "science". Elements: An International Magazine of Mineralogy, Geochemistry, and Petrology is a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by 17 scientific societies: Mineralogical Society of America, Mineralogical Society of Great Britain and Ireland, Mineralogical Association of Canada, Geochemical Society, Clay Minerals Society, European Association of Geochemistry, International Association of GeoChemistry, Société Française de Minéralogie et de Cristallographie, Association of Applied Geochemists, , , International Association of Geoanalysts, Polskie Towarzystwo Mineralogiczne (Mineralogical Society of Poland), Sociedad Española de Mineralogía (Spanish Mineralogical Society), Swiss Society of Mineralogy and Petrology, Meteoritical Society, and the Japan Association of Mineralogical Sciences.  It was established in January 2005.  The editors-in-chief are Patricia M. Dove (Virginia Tech), Gordon E. Brown, Jr (Stanford University), and Bernard J. Wood (University of Oxford).  The journal covers all aspects of mineralogy, geochemistry, and petrology.  Each issue is devoted to a particular topic and contains invited review articles, as well as society news and book reviews. Floyd Alburn Firestone (1898–1986) was an acoustical physicist, who in 1940 while a professor at the University of Michigan invented the first practical ultrasonic testing method and apparatus.  He was granted US Patent 2,280,226 for the invention in 1942.  Manufactured by Sperry Corporation, the testing device was known variously as the Firestone-Sperry Reflectoscope, the Sperry Ultrasonic Reflectoscope, the Sperry Reflectoscope and sometimes also just as a Supersonic Reflectoscope, the name Firestone had originally coined for the instrument.  The technology is not just used in quality control in factories to reject defective parts before shipment, but also revolutionized transportation safety.  For example, ultrasonic testing is used for safety maintenance inspection of railroad cars, particularly axles and wheels, aircraft, particularly fuselages, and other transportation vessels for material fatigue.  Dr. Firestone’s ultrasonic pulse echo technique for metal defect testing was also later applied in medical diagnosis, giving birth to the field of Echocardiography and to the field of Medical Ultrasonography, generally.  Dr. Firestone was the editor of the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America from 1939-1957.  Among Firestone’s many other inventions in his field are in a single year an “automatic device for the minute inspection of flaws”, “a new and useful improvement in hook-up of electrical apparatus”, and “[a] device for measuring noise”, and, even, later a “musical typewriter”. Geophysical Journal International is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society and the Deutsche Geophysikalische Gesellschaft (German Geophysical Society).  The journal published original research papers, research notes, letters, and book reviews.  It was established in 1922.  The editor-in-chief is Jeannot Trampert (Utrecht University).  The journal covers research on all aspects of geophysics, including planetary science. The Proceedings of the Chemical Society was a scientific journal published at various times in the life of the Chemical Society, a scientific society in the United Kingdom that combined with other societies to form the Royal Society of Chemistry in 1980.  In 1841, the Society published "Memoirs of the Chemical Society", renamed in 1842 to "Proceedings of the Chemical Society".  Together these were volume 1.  Volumes 2 and 3 were published as "Memoirs and Proceedings, Chemical Society, London" between 1843 and 1848.  The "Proceedings of the Chemical Society, London" were published from vol.  1, 1885 to vol.  30, 1914 and from 1950 to 1964.  Between 1915 and 1956 the "Proceedings of the Chemical Society, London" were published as a supplement to "Journal of the Chemical Society, London". Patricia Katherine Kuhl is a Professor of Speech and Hearing Sciences and co-director of the Institute for Learning & Brain Sciences at the University of Washington.  She specializes in language acquisition and the neural bases of language, and she has also conducted research on language development in autism and computer speech recognition.  Kuhl currently serves as an associate editor for the journals "Journal of the Acoustical Society of America", "Neuroscience", and "Developmental Science". The Wallace Clement Sabine Medal of the Acoustical Society of America is presented to an individual of any nationality who has advanced the science of architectural acoustics, either by being published in professional journals or periodicals, or by another accomplishment in architectural acoustics at the discretion of the awarding body.  The award was named for pioneering acoustician Wallace Clement Sabine.  Founded in 1957 by the Acoustical Society of America, the award is given when an outstanding candidate is recognized. The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America (abbreviated "J. Acoust.  Soc.  Am."  or JASA) is a scientific journal in the field of acoustics, published by the Acoustical Society of America.  It contains technical articles on sound, vibration, speech and related topics.  Access to articles is by subscription or purchase, though most universities have access.  According to the "Journal Citation Reports" the journal has a 2015 impact factor of 1.572. David E. Weston (19 January 1929 – 16 November 2001) was an English physicist, who worked at the Admiralty Research Establishment.  During his early career he worked with A B Wood, and is best known for his contributions to underwater acoustics.  He published more than 65 papers, including 32 in the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, and was awarded the Rayleigh Medal by the Institute of Acoustics in 1970 and the ASA Silver Medal by the Acoustical Society of America in 1998.  Dr Weston was president of the UK Institute of Acoustics between 1982 and 1984.
