A journal of applied statistics. The purpose of the Journal of Agricultural, Biological, and Environmental Statistics (JABES) is to contribute to the development and use of statistical methods in the agricultural sciences, the biological sciences (including biotechnology), and the environmental sciences (including those dealing with natural resources). Published articles are expected to be of immediate and practical value to applied researchers and statistical consultants in these fields. Only papers addressing applied statistical problems will be considered. Interdisciplinary papers as well as papers that illustrate the application of new and important statistical methods using real data are strongly encouraged. Expository, review, and survey articles addressing broad-based statistical issues will be particularly valuable. New Additions to the Editorial Board for 1 January 2008 I'm very pleased to welcome the following new Associate Editors to the Editorial Board of JABES effective 1 January 2008. I look forward to working with current and new members of the Board on maintaining JABES as an interesting, high quality journal. Carl Schwarz
