Early-Career Reviewer Program from CSP. Early-career researchers (ECRs) and professionals (ECPs) are invaluable contributors to the aquatic science community in Canada. As the next generation of knowledge producers and users, the contributions of ECRs and ECPs to the peer review of scientific research are essential. To foster continued involvement of ECRs and ECPs in the peer review process, Canadian Science Publishing (CSP) and the Society of Canadian Aquatic Sciences (SCAS) have established an Early-Career Reviewer Program. The Early-Career Reviewer Program aims to provide a collaborative environment where ECRs and ECPs are provided the opportunity to peer review manuscripts submitted to the CSP-SCAS partner journals: Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, Canadian Journal of Zoology, Environmental Reviews, and FACETS.
