★Highlight articles is released on PEPS website soon!

PEPS editorial office is promoting the publication of review
articles that provide an opportunity for scientists to read organized
descriptions and summaries of the latest systematic developments. The intention
is that the review articles in PEPS will fill the gap between
a scientific paper and a book and so be a useful educational resource
for the worldwide geoscience community, for instance by forming the
basis for university seminars. To encourage the students or young
scientists in Japan to read the latest articles in PEPS, we are now
preparing a highlight written in Japanese for each article. These
highlights will be shortly available in our PEPS website
(http://progearthplanetsci.org/index_j.html).

★Ranked in the top 100 popular articles in the SpringerOpen website

Page views to PEPS articles are steadily increasing. Specifically, #5
Article written by Nakamura and Takai has been ranked in the top 100
highly-accessed articles not only in PEPS but also in a large number of journals
published on SpringerOpen last month.
