RESEARCH ARTICLES forthcoming in E&H

Hyperlinks give access to abstracts and full text of Environment and History Ahead-of-Print papers. The final print version will be identical, apart from page numbering and identification of the journal issue in which it is published.

Ahead-of-Print articles should be cited using the DOI in the following form:
Smith, J. 2018. Article title, Environment and History Ahead of Print, DOI xxxxxxxx.

Papers are removed from this list after final publication in a specific journal issue. As there is now only a short delay between acceptance and Ahead-of-Print publication we are no longer posting authors’ pre-copyediting versions on the WHP website. Authors remain free to self-archive their accepted papers.
