Professor of Geography and Environmental Studies Emerita Ellen Percy Kraly and Joseph Henderson \u201903, an associate professor of social sciences in the environment and society department at Paul Smith\u2019s College, are the new co-editors of the <em>Adirondack Journal of Environmental Studies <\/em>(<em>AJES<\/em>).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Colgate\u2019s Office of Information Technology Services will host the online platform for the journal, and the Environmental Studies Program will serve as the journal\u2019s academic partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <em>AJES<\/em>, a project of the ARC, is an interdisciplinary journal that expands understanding of Adirondacks ecology and environmental issues and informs policy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The late geology professor Bruce Selleck \u201971 co-edited one edition of the <em>AJES<\/em> and was a member of the ARC. When he passed away in 2017, Kraly stepped in as a representative of Colgate on the ARC board. Then after the previous editor stepped down, Kraly assumed that role as well and approached Henderson \u2014 who counted Selleck among his mentors \u2014 with the opportunity to serve as co-editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the Adirondacks are so ecologically unique, the area is of heightened interest, and the <em>AJES<\/em> addresses that interest in its pages. \u201c[The Adirondacks] have a ton of fresh water. They have a lot of rare species,\u201d Henderson says. \u201cIt\u2019s going to be one of the most stable areas going forward in terms of climate change.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Kraly, the <em>AJES<\/em> is also noteworthy because \u201cwe need to ground our knowledge production within communities involved in whatever issue we\u2019re studying,\u201d she says. \u201cThe Adirondack Research Consortium wants to make the knowledge available to \u2014 and grounded in \u2014 the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along the way, the <em>AJES<\/em> and its interdisciplinary approach to environmental analysis aligns with the values of Colgate\u2019s liberal arts education, its commitment to student research, and its <em>Third-Century <\/em>intention to deepen the rigor of its academic programs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professor Emerita Ellen Percy Kraly and Joseph Henderson \u201903, a professor at Paul Smith\u2019s College, are the new co-editors of the Adirondack Journal of Environmental Studies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1283,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[1256,2667,228,425,2666,54,2665,267],"coauthors":[2668],"class_list":["post-16518","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-scene","tag-adirondacks","tag-bruce-selleck","tag-climate-change","tag-ecology","tag-ellen-percy-kraly","tag-environment","tag-mountains","tag-research"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/palXSH-4iq","amp_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16518","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1283"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16518"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16518\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16615,"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16518\/revisions\/16615"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16518"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16518"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16518"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.colgate.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=16518"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
