[Tomislav Hengl]

Dear R-sig-geo,

This is to inform you that the submissions for the special issue on 
"Spatial and spatio-temporal models for interpolating climatic and 
meteorological data" (based on the http://dailymeteo.org/2014 
conference) are now open.

Spatial Statistics (SPASTA): 
http://www.journals.elsevier.com/spatial-statistics/
Special issue title: Spatial and spatio-temporal models for 
interpolating climatic and meteorological data
Guest editor(s): Dr. Tomislav Hengl, Dr. Edzer Pebesma, Dr. Robert J Hijmans

Submissions open: 1st of July 2014
Submissions close: 15th of October 2014
Acceptance deadline (closing of the special issue): 1st of March 2015

If you plan to submit a paper for this special issue (and have not 
participated in the conference), please reply to this e-mail with a 
working title / 300 words abstract, and why you think this paper should 
be included in the special issue.

Submission guidelines:

1. Download the Elsevier article template (e.g. LaTeX template from 
http://www.elsevier.com/author-schemas/latex-instructions);
2. Study the themes of interest 
(http://dailymeteo.org/2014#toc-themes-9HSRW43W);
3. This special issue is about methods for interpolating climatic and 
meteo data, but also about using Open Source software to achieve this. 
Consider using a combination of R and/or Python and LaTeX code to 
produce papers that include both formulas and code snippets.
4. Once you have managed to compile a PDF of your article for 
peer-review, visit the SPASTA editorial system at 
http://ees.elsevier.com/spasta/default.asp, register a new author 
account (if required) and then login and upload your article.
5. During the article submission, you need to select the right article 
type "SI:Dailymeteo.org/2014" when you reach the "article type" step in 
the submission process, so that their papers will be routed together for 
the special issue into the right channel, not get mixed with other SI 
papers, or regular papers in the system.

cheers,
