Journal of Agricultural, Biological, and Environmental Statistics (JABES)



The International Biometric Society has chosen Springer as the new publisher of their Journal of Agricultural, Biological, and Environmental Statistics (JABES), beginning in March 2010 (v.15). Backfiles to 2001 (v.6-14) will also be made available on SpringerLink.

JABES is a quarterly journal publishinging papers of interest to applied researchers and consultants in the agricultural, biological (including biotechnology), and environmental sciences (including natural resources). The focus of the journal is on new, interdisciplinary, and important statistical methods using real-world data.

JABES volumes from 2001-2009 (v.6-14) were previously made available from the website of the American Statistical Association. Volumes from 1996-2003 (v.1-8) will continue to be available from JSTOR.
