Overleaf Partners with American Geophysical Union to Simplify Submission Process for Multiple Journals

Overleaf, an innovative provider of scientific writing and publishing tools, today announced a partnership with the American Geophysical Union (AGU),a nonprofit, professional organization for Earth and space scientists representing more than 60,000 members. AGU publishes 20 peer-reviewed scientific journals covering research in the Earth and space sciences. Authors of the Geophysical Research Letters, the Journal of Geophysical Research (JPR): Space Physics, and  JGR: Atmospheres are now able to write and collaborate using a template that allows them to select the specific journal in which they would like to submit. The finished manuscripts created within the Overleaf platform can then be submitted directly to the AGU eJP submission system – transferring necessary files and metadata automatically. This will simplify the submission process for AGU authors and offer an easier and faster way to collaborate and write articles. Through this implementation, and via a one-click submission link directly into their submission systems, AGU will be able to capture structured manuscript metadata, correctly compiled LaTeX files and PDFs. Brooks Hanson, Director of Publications at AGU said: “As a leader in scientific collaboration and innovation, AGU is committed to improving services to our authors and transforming scientific publishing in today’s evolving marketplace. By contracting with Overleaf, we are able to provide our authors with more efficient and time-saving technolog...
