New Publications: Reconciling the Supply of and Demand for Science

Dan Sarewitz, Steve Dovers, and I have guest edited a special issue of Environmental Science & Policy which is titled Reconciling the Supply of and Demand for Science, with a focus on carbon cycle research. The papers in this special issue have just been published, and since each of the papers has an author or co-author here at our Center we are happy to provide links below to the full set of papers in the order that they appear in the special issue. Over coming days and weeks we may prepare focused posts on a few of the papers. Meantime, have a look, feedback appreciated!
