Wachsende Wasserspeicher – Gletscherseen sind zugleich Ressource und schützenswerter Lebensraum

Ein Forschungsteam der Universität Potsdam hat zusammen mit Partnern der University of Leeds Verteilung und Volumen von Gletscherseen weltweit erfasst. Ihr Fachartikel ist in „Nature Water“ erschienen: https://www.uni-potsdam.de/de/nachrichten/detail/2026-01-28-wachsende-wasserspeicher-gletscherseen-sind-zugleich-ressource-und-schuetzenswerter-lebensraum

Kann "Language Science Press" ein Teil des "Springer Nature"-Problem lösen?

@SNF_ch @CHopen @nohillside

Kann ich das so zusammenfassen: "Wir zahlen mit Steuergeldern die Forschung und den Zugriff auf die Resultate"?

Pas d’accord avec #SpringerNature :

Depuis le 1er janvier 2026, la Suisse est sans contrat. En conséquence, le FNS suspend l’encouragement des articles en #OpenAccess dans ces revues.

Cette mesure est prise en concertation avec les hautes écoles 🇨🇭 et renforce leur position de négociation.

No deal with #SpringerNature

Switzerland has been without an agreement since 1.1.2026. Consequently, the SNSF is pausing funding for #OpenAccess articles in these journals.

This joint measure with the 🇨🇭 higher education institutions strengthens our negotiating position.

No Deal mit #SpringerNature:

Seit 1.1.2026 ist die Schweiz vertragslos. Als Konsequenz setzt der SNF die Förderung von Open-Access-Artikeln in diesen Zeitschriften aus.

Die Massnahme erfolgt abgestimmt mit den 🇨🇭 Hochschulen und stärkt die Verhandlungsposition.

OK, as per request of #swissuniversities my #NewYearResolution for 2026 is thus: no reviewing and no publishing with #SpringerNature

It's one of the recommendations in the linked article

La Conferenza dei Rettori ha deciso di non rinnovare l’accordo con Springer-Nature e di continuare con le trattative, anche se ciò renderà inaccessibili, almeno per un periodo, i testi dell’editore commerciale in questione. Ha inoltre raccomandato:

di non usare fondi centrali per la pubblicazione a pagamento

di prendere in considerazione alternative a Springer-Nature

di rendere disponibili […]

3 Seiten Mail von #Springer-Nature mit Hinweisen zur Verwandlung eines Manuskripts in eine Buch-Publikation. 🫤 »Das Copyright-Jahr wird vom Verlag berechnet, ...« (👏) Wir sind echt Ursache unserer eigenen Probleme, wenn wir weiterhin in diesen Arten von Verlagen publizieren.

Kudos to the editors of the 𝘑𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘗𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘓𝘰𝘨𝘪𝘤, published by #SpringerNature, who just resigned to launch a new #DiamondOA journal on the same topics, published by @openlibhums.

Here's the new journal, 𝘗𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘓𝘰𝘨𝘪𝘤.

We all know there are several #Pubpeer comments showing fraudulent data and AI-generated papers in #ScientificReports by #SpringerNature, but wow that journal's #review process is screwed up much more than people realize.... Worst experience ever. After one AE refused to make a decision after two second round reviews were in, new AE said we need a 3rd reviewer and round three to settle the reviewers' disagreement. Okay. Review 3 is now in: "My concerns are minor and can be easily addressed in a revision." Editor decision: Reject.

This review connects molecular biology and clinical neuroscience, showing how #miRNAs could transform how we diagnose and treat neurodegenerative diseases.

( \(2^{nd}\) announcement)

The #Springer Problem Book for the Indiana College Mathematics Competition (2001-2023) is now available in a (slightly less expensive) softcover format! This book, edited by me, J. Gash, R. Gillman, and @JohnRickert , can be used by students and coaches in a problem solving class, and would also make a great gift or library order! Purchases through the publisher web site generate royalties that support student activities in the #Indiana Section of the #MAA .

The _Journal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing_ is converting from #hybrid to #APC-based #OpenAccess. One of its motives to escape the #DoubleDipping of the hybrid model. "Although this hybrid approach was well-intentioned, it created a paradoxical situation where institutions pay [and publishers receive] both subscription fees and publication charges."
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10877-025-01342-7

PS: Glad to see it acknowledge the double dipping. Too many hybrid journals don't do that. Next step, escape the inequity and author-side barriers of the APC model.
