officially accepted

The paper for which I am listed as the second author has been officially accepted ! Therefore look for "Petrology of the eclogites from western Tasmania: Insights into the Cambro-Ordovician evolution of the paleo-Pacific margin of Gondwana" to show up in the journal Lithos sometime soon...

I'm sure it would go right over my head--though I am really interested in geology. I took a *lot* of geology classes in college, but that was long ago and far away.

lol! Large portions of that article go over my head! My own research has to do with a very different rock type than that article discusses, so I don't have the background for some of the technical details we cover--it was my responsibility to write up the "field relations", since I collected the samples and the other authors haven't been to Tasmania and don't know the area.

However, as the only native-English speaker in the author list, I had to do some serious edits to all of the paper, not just my portion, which was, occasionally a bit of a challenge trying to figure out what they meant to say when I know so little about eclogite as a rock type.
