We are pleased to announce the appointment of Dr Deb Niemeier as Co-Editor on Transportation Research: Part A (TRA). Dr Niemeier is currently Professor in the Dept of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Director of the John Muir Institute at the University of California, Davis. Her research focuses on the theory and methods used for modeling vehicle emissions at local and regional air quality scales. She also studies the project development process for major infrastructure projects and the interactions between land use and travel behavior.
Dr Niemeier’s appointment as Co-Editor took effect on the 1st March 2007, and she will succeed Phil Goodwin as Editor of TRA on the 1st January 2008. During the transition period, Dr Niemeier will handle all entirely new submissions, while Professor Goodwin will complete the handling of all manuscripts received prior to 1st March.
Under Professor Goodwin’s editorship TRA has enjoyed dramatic increases in its already high readership as measured by downloads of articles online, confirming its status as a flagship journal, not only within the Elsevier stable, but for the whole body of transportation research literature. We look forward to its continuing success under the new editorial arrangements.
