💎New preprint: The Rise of Diamond OA Journals in Earth Sciences A decade ago a few scholar-led, no-fee journals started reimagining Earth science publishing. We map the wins & the fragilities that will decide whether this scales. #OpenAccess #DiamondOA doi.org/10.31223/X56...

Following our latest publication with @romainvaucher.bsky.social in @sedimentologika.bsky.social , we wrote a piece arguing that scientists can, and should, reclaim control over scholarly publishing. A fairer publishing system is not a distant ideal. We scientist can already take action 💎
