As editor of Quaternary Australasia, I must take this opportunity to reiterate the usual editor's call for papers. Refereeing can be arranged if requested. I also intend , for the next issue, to write up an abstract of some of the issues coming up through this Quaternary List, if no-one has any objections. If it is well received, I may make it a regular feature, especially for some of the members who may not be linked to a computer. There is a suggestion that AQUA start an electronic network, but since this List is operational, I might suggest that members join it.
Electronic submission is perfect.
Details of AQUA are as follow. It seeks to encourage research by younger workers in particular, to promote scientific communication between Australia and New Zealand, and to inform members of current research and publications. It holds biennial meetings and publishes the journal Quaternary Australasia twice a year. Quaternary Australasia is edited by Bill Boyd, with assistance from Colin Murray-Wallace. President 1993 - 1995 is Dr Ian Thomas, Department of Geography, University of Melbourne.
