Just Hit Submit—Perspectives and Advice From L&O Letters Early Career Publication Honor Awardees.

The Limnology & Oceanography (L&O) Letters Early Career Publication Honor (ECPH) was created to amplify underrepresented voices in aquatic sciences and support the publication of Open Access articles by selected early career researchers. The program provides honorees with pre-submission editorial support, a waiver for the Article Processing Charge, and post-publication social media promotion. The ECRs who received the honor share their perspectives and advice, highlighting the benefits of the friendly review process, the opportunity to be lead and corresponding authors, the waiver of publication fees, and the cumulative impacts of the experience. They also provide tips for manuscript writing and publishing in L&O Letters, and encourage other ECRs to apply for the ECPH. [Extracted from the article]
