A Message From the Associate Editor

Abstract

Welcome to the third annual special issue on wind energy. I again extend my heartfelt thanks to the authors and reviewers who have made this issue possible. I thought I was really ahead of the curve on this issue–I started the process early, got the papers out for review quickly, set deadlines to give me plenty of lead time to complete the entire review process by early June. Then reality took over: Dependable reviewers were weeks late in completing reviews, I spaced it on sending out the review material for one paper and didn’t realize it until many weeks later, authors sent in revisions weeks later than they promised, I got distracted, etc. The important thing is we got the job done once more (even if I was several weeks behind our publisher’s deadline for getting all the material submitted), and here’s another issue of high-quality papers on wind energy for your reading pleasure.
